蝙蝠侠：元年 Batman: Year One Movie Script

杰瑞发布于2022-10-25

《蝙蝠侠:元年》原著漫画于1988年首次发表，作者弗兰克·米勒开创性地再造了蝙蝠侠的起源故事——他是什么人，他如何成为蝙蝠侠。　　本作从布鲁斯·韦恩第一次回到高谭市为开端，为这个传奇人物的诞生打下了新的基础，成为正史中最重要的一页。作为一切故事的开端，本集讲述了各个人物的来历。哈维·邓特不是令人瞩目的青年才俊，而是屡败屡战的检察官；猫女赛琳娜·凯勒不是上流社会的优雅贵妇，只是一名出身街头的穷妓女。在他们生存的哥谭市里，官员们同黑帮勾结，警察是罪犯的保护伞。新调来的警官詹姆斯·戈登想在一个堕落的城市做一名好警察；刚刚回到故乡准备扫尽罪孽的布鲁斯·韦恩则在流血中懂得，惟有让人恐惧才能叫人尊敬。在深夜中，他悄然出现，又随着宽大黑披风带起的一缕微风而没入黑暗。有人说他是野蛮的暴徒，有人说他是嗜血的疯子，也有人认为他只是一个都市传说。一切传说都有它的起源

She's right. He looks as if he's had a burning building dropped on him. He's scarred, cut, bleeding and bruised.
THE BAT-MAN I'll be all right — (beat) - with a little help from my friends.
GORDON:
And WHO ARE your friends?
THE BAT-MAN I don't know, who are YOU?
GORDON:
I'm a COP. Who are you?
THE BAT-MAN I'm THE BAT-MAN.
GORDON points to LOEB, his cheek carved with a letter "Z".
GORDON:
That doesn't look like the mark of the bat. What does that mean?
THE BAT-MAN It's a gift for a kid I used to know, a long time ago.
GORDON:
(nodding) Sirens coming, you better go.
THE BAT-MAN turns to go.
GORDON (CONT'D) Just so you know, I'm practically blind without my glasses.
THE BAT-MAN, tosses the glasses from across the street — THE BAT-MAN I'll see you around, DETECTIVE.
— just as a truck drives in between them. It looks like the AL and Son's Garage TRUCK.
GORDON:
Thanks, (realizing he's gone) BATMAN.
As the cop cars, ambulances and TV crews show up we —
CUT TO:
EXT. GOTHAM SKYSCRAPER - DUSK Gotham's skyline fills our vision as we zoom in on the top floor of a super-ritzy high-rise. Its floor-to-ceiling windows open onto a wrap-around, STONE ROOF-DECK.
We continue through into a splendid modern LIVING ROOM. Plush leather sofas are sunk into the floor to create a GLAMOROUS ENTERTAINMENT CENTER. Built into the wall is a GIANT-SCREEN TV.
ON THE TV— NEWS ANCHOR, BRIAN In a bizarre shooting incident early this morning Gotham's Hero Cop James Gordon thwarted an attempted kidnapping of his pregnant wife by a band of ROGUE POLICE OFFICERS. Following the melee, three police officers are dead and two others hospitalized, including Police Commissioner Gillian Loeb who was BLINDED and DISFIGURED during the confrontation. GORDON was admitted to MERCY GENERAL for gunshot wounds. He is expected to make a complete recovery, as is his wife, ANN, and the baby.
The sounds of breaking glass fill the luxurious penthouse as the report continues — NEWS ANCHOR, BRIAN (CONT'D) This evening, Police Commissioner Loeb faces numerous criminal charges including kidnapping and allegations of collusion with organized crime. Further reports indicated that Detective Jonathan Flass, also hospitalized at this hour in an unrelated incident, will turn state's witness against Loeb.
Someone has entered the LIVING ROOM. Their silhouette tiptoes past the TV, while — NEWS ANCHOR, BRIAN (CONT'D) MAYOR NOONE has been unavailable for comment and seems unlikely to face charges at this time.
The mysterious intruder lifts an EXQUISITE OIL PAINTING off the wall as we — CUT TO.
EXT OVERGROWN GARDEN - DUSK BRUCE WAYNE stands in a vast, classical garden amid weeds and tall grass. Flickering firelight illuminates his face in the gathering gloom of night.
BRUCE (V.O.) DECEMBER 18. Dear Father, you have taught me well, showed me who I am and what it takes to be a man in this world. For that I am grateful.
BRUCE looks down at his CARDBOARD SHIPPING BOX full of letters burning in a brick fire pit.
