In the harsh, unforgiving landscape of the Outback, Charlie Burns (Guy Pearce) is presented with an impossible proposition by local law enforcer Captain Stanley (Ray Winstone). To save his younger brother Mikey from the gallows he must track down and kill Arthur (Danny Huston), his psychotic older brother. While Charlie is forced to choose between revenge, loyalty and his own conscience, Stanley, having given up a civilised life in England, is determined to impose law and order and shield his innocent wife Martha (Emily Watson) from the brutalities of their new surroundings.

The Proposition review by Rubber Ducky
Brutal portrayal of a period of Australian history
(0) of (2) members found this review helpful.
Some very violent moments warrant the 18 certificate but a good film if you can stomach it. A story of contrasts, from Emily Watson's upper class wife pouring the tea into bone china cups, to the savage racism heaped upon the native Aborigines. Guy Pearce is understated yet convincing as the brother who is supposed to murder a member of his family in order to save another.
