Megan Holley was inspired to explore the emotions and motivations of those who clean up after death when she heard about two female friends working in the biohazard removal business. The emerging popularity of forensic medicine and crime scene television shows at the time meant audiences were curious about, and then desensitised in degrees to, gruesome subject matter to which they had not previously been exposed.

Debut Script for Megan Holley

Sunshine Cleaning is written by Megan Holley, a first-time screenwriter. Holley won an award with this script at the Virginia Governor's 2003 scriptwriting competition sponsored by the Virginia Film Office. Recognition of her Sunshine Cleaning script was the catalyst to launch Holley's career; she was subsequently named in Variety’s 10 Screenwriters to Watch list in 2005. Sunshine Cleaning is directed by New Zealander Christine Jeffs (Sylvia).

Sunshine Cleaning The Movie

The central characters in Holley's script are the Lorkowski sisters; Rose, played by Amy Adams (Doubt, Charlie Wilsons War) and Norah, played by Emily Blunt (The Young Victoria, The Devil Wears Prada). In high school Rose was the cheerleader captain with the quarterback boyfriend and expected a different life than the one she finds herself living. Norah is aimless and irresponsible. Their Dad, Joe, played by Alan Arkin is a get-rich-quick schemer and dreamer bouncing between failures.
