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

BRUCE:
Your father's office?
LITTLE AL says nothing. The two men go inside— INT. BIG AL'S OFFICE - DAY It's like a tomb. Dusty, unused and preserved. LITTLE AL sits at the desk and starts opening drawers.
LITTLE AL:
(without looking) Sit down Bruce.
BRUCE sits on a dusty chair.
LITTLE AL finds what he's looking for, shoe-box. He turns to
BRUCE:
LITTLE AL (CONT'D) You know, Bruce, BIG AL worked HARD to put me through med school. He dreamed of giving me more than that garage. But he NEVER said a WORD after the war.
LITTLE AL (CONT'D) He understood what happens to a man who's SEEN too much of this world's evil. Do you know what I'm talking about Bruce.
BRUCE nods.
LITTLE AL (CONT'D) When we found you out in the scrap pile you were scared, more of a wild animal than a boy, really. And you had something with you, do you remember that?
BRUCE says 'Yes' with his eyes.
LITTLE AL (CONT'D) (laughs) You wouldn't let it go... Took BIG AL three months to even get a look at it. You cried for weeks when he took it from you. He said you weren't ready to have it. You called it your INHERITANCE.
LITTLE AL puts a hand on BRUCE's shoulder.
LITTLE AL (CONT'D) When BIG AL was up in that hospital, he asked me watch over you, made me promise, and I have.
You're like my boy, Bruce.
LITTLE AL gives BRUCE's shoulder a squeeze.
LITTLE AL (CONT'D) But now you're scaring me. There's something going on in your head, and while I can't say I know exactly what it is, I can tell you
this:
A man has got to know who he is before he can confront his demons.
LITTLE AL open the shoe box and removes a smaller WOODEN BOX with a heavy brass latch LITTLE AL (CONT'D) Maybe your INHERITANCE can help you figure it out.
LITTLE AL places the WOODEN BOX on BRUCE'S knee.
BRUCE just stares at it.
LITTLE AL (CONT'D) Not ready yet, huh' I understand LITTLE AL stands up and waits. After a moment BRUCE stands up and they both walk back into— INT. LITTLE AL'S GARAGE - MOMENTS LATER LITTLE AL locks the door behind them.
LITTLE AL:
You take all the time you want.
It's late. I'm going home. I hope you can find some comfort in this, Bruce. Sleep well.
LITTLE AL leaves BRUCE staring at the WOODEN BOX.
INT. BRUCE WAYNE'S APARTMENT - NIGHT BRUCE writes another letter.
