Bob Dylan Song Inspires Film Script By Scorsese Collaborator
. The song � which runs more than 11 minutes � is a mixture of a western tale and romance and includes references to Gregory Peck movies. Apparently, Dylan himself asked Cocks to write the script, which is now rumored to be attached to Crazy Heart director Scott Cooper. Brad Pitt is being asked to star as the lead, Henry Porter. Johnny Depp was previously offered the role. If the "Brownsville Girl" movie does get made, it will join Harper Valley PTA, Alice's Restaurant and The Gambler in the rare category of movies based on a song. It will also join Dylan's movie-making escapades, alongside 2003's Masked and Anonymous (which he co-wrote) and 1978's Renaldo and Clara (which he wrote and directed). - more on this story
