Artist/very rich guy Richard Prince just sold a movie:

The American painter and photographer Richard Prince has just sold the rights to a film pitch. The story - which falls somewhere between Lord of the Flies and Lost - follows a group of people who are the last surviving humans on earth. According to Prince, who will be the subject of an exhibition at London’s Serpentine Gallery this summer, inspiration came from his regular holidays on the Caribbean island of St Barts. “I liked the idea that privilege is turned on its head,” he says. “And when it comes to the fight for survival, clean water becomes more precious than money.”

I guess Prince is just making art about what he knows, and what he knows now is St. Barts, home of the $24 champagne cocktail.
