The Gardener's Son
''The Gardener’s Son'' is a screenplay by American writer Cormac McCarthy. It is the first published screenplay written by McCarthy, who primarily writes novels but has also written two plays and had three of his novels adapted into feature-length films.〔Davies, Adam Lee. ("Brace yourself, more Cormac McCarthy adaptations are coming down the road" ). The Guardian, January 11, 2010. Retrieved December 5, 2010.〕 The story is based around a strange murder in Graniteville, South Carolina in 1876 that is without many details. At the request of director Richard Pearce, McCarthy wrote the screenplay for a two-hour episode of the television series ''Visions'', which was broadcast by PBS on January 6, 1977. The story focuses on a young man embittered by the changes in his community due to the capitalist ways of the owner of the town's cotton mill. His anger grows until his rage consumes both himself and the families caught up in it. The episode was nominated for two Emmy awards and the screenplay has gone on to be published in book form.〔("A Guide to the Cormac McCarthy Papers" ).

==Background==
In 1974, Richard Pearce reached Cormac McCarthy and asked him to write the screenplay for an episode of ''Visions'', a television drama series. Beginning in early 1975, and armed with only "a few photographs in the footnotes to a 1928 biography of a famous pre-Civil War industrialist William Gregg as inspiration," he and McCarthy spent a year traveling the south in order to research the subject matter.〔("Novelist reimagines Graniteville murder" ). ''Aiken Standard'', September 10, 2010. Retrieved December 2, 2010.〕 Much of this research and McCarthy's correspondence while writing are currently collected in the Wittliff collections. According to the guide to the collection, The Gardener's Son is his "only title with a subseries devoted to research."〔 McCarthy completed the screenplay in 1976 and the episode was aired on January 6, 1977. It was also shown in numerous film festivals abroad.〔McCarthy, Cormac. ''The Gardener's Son''. The Ecco Press, September 1, 1996. Retrieved December 6, 2010. Front and back book flaps.〕
