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 (V.O.) September 22. Dear Father, I almost slipped today. God help me if I lose control. Little Al gave me back my inheritance. What should I do with it? Please tell me. I don't know how much longer I can go without your help. Please send instructions. Your loving son, Bruce.
BRUCE signs the letter and puts it in an ENVELOPE. Puts a stamp on the envelope.
BRUCE gets ready for bed and turns in. He doesn't sleep, just stares at the WOODEN BOX from his bed.
INT. SELINA'S APARTMENT - NIGHT SELINA's apartment is painted to look like a dungeon. The tools of her trade line the walls— WHIPS, CUFFS, A CRICKET BAT FOR SPANKING. CATS lounge all over the place.
HOLLY sits cross-legged in an electric chair. She paints her toe nails and watches SELINA pace the cramped room.
SELINA:
There has to be more to it than this.
HOLLY:
This what?
SELINA:
LIFE! Jesus, there has GOT to be more out there than just PIMPS and JOHNS. We spend our lives on our backs shuttling money from one to the other, FOR WHAT?
HOLLY:
I don't know, what?
SELINA:
Nothing! Don't you see, we're being used. We're stuck here and for all our work, we have nothing. While they're getting rich. I'm sick of it, I'm not going to take it anymore.
HOLLY:
What are you going to do? Run off?
Marry a John?
SELINA:
HA! Have you seen the guys who come here for my services? Sh*t. What I'd give to meet a real man.
HOLLY:
(rising) Got to go. My 10:30 should be here.
(at the door) You know, maybe there are no real men. Maybe the whole world IS just PIMPS and JOHNS. Ever think of that?
HOLLY leaves.
SELINA:
(to self) Then I'll have to find my own way out.
She closes her door. And we—

EXT. A MAGNIFICENT THEATER - NIGHT We're on the steps of a magical old-world movie palace. It's bright, clean, hyper-real— a dream.
A BOY, about 8, leaves a showing of Zorro with his MOTHER and FATHER. He goofs around with an imaginary sword.
BOY:
En guard! En guard!
MOTHER:
(Her best Fay Rae imitation.) Oh Brave Zorro, Save us!
FATHER:
Yes, but can Zorro fly?
FATHER grabs his BOY and throws him in the air. The BOY freaks out with laughter.
The BOY is caught under his arms and again tossed upwards, and into a —
