侏罗纪公园 1 Jurassic Park (1993) Movie Script

Ellie draws up to the table and Hammond looks up at her. His eyes are puffy, his hair is messed up - - for the first time we've seen him, the fire is gone from his eyes.

HAMMOND:

They were all melting.

(or) It was all melting.

Ellie just nods.

ELLIE:

Malcolm's okay for now. I gave him a shot of morphine.

HAMMOND:

They'll all be fine. Who better to get the children through Jurassic Park than a dinosaur expert?

Ellie nods. Another pause. Hammond breaks it again.

HAMMOND (cont'd) You know the first attraction I ever built when I came down south from Scotland? Was a Flea Circus, Petticoat Lane. Really quite wonderful. We had a wee trapeze, a roundabout - - a merry-go - - what you call it?

ELLIE:

Carousel.

HAMMOND:

A carousel - - and a seesaw. They all moved, motorized of course, but people would swear they could see the fleas. "I see the fleas, mummy! Can't you see the fleas?" Clown fleas, high wire fleas, fleas on parade... (he trails off) Ellie just looks at him, not sure what his state is. He goes on.

HAMMOND:

But with this place, I - - I wanted to give (show) them something real, something that wasn't an illusion, something they could see and (feel) touch. An aim devoid of (without) merit.

ELLIE:

But you can't think through this one. You have to feel it.

HAMMOND:

You're absolutely right. Yes, you're right. Hiring Nedry was a mistake, that's obvious. We're over- dependent on automation, I can see that now. But that's all correctable for the next time around.

ELLIE:

John, John. John, you're still building onto that Flea Circus, that illusion. And now you're adding onto it by what you're doing here. That's the illusion.

HAMMOND:

(When) Once we have control again we - -

ELLIE:

Control?! You never had control! I was overwhelmed by the power of this place. So I made a mistake too. I didn't have enough respect for that power, and it's out now. You're sitting here trying to pick up the pieces.

John, there's nothing worth picking up. The only thing that matters now are the people we love. Alan, Lex, and Tim. And John, they're out there where people are dying - - people are dying, you know?

There is a long pause. Hammond avoids her gaze. Ellie reaches out and takes a spoon out of one of the buckets of ice cream, and licks it. Finally: ELLIE (cont'd) It's good.

He looks up at her, and his face is different, as the unhappy irony of what he's about to say finally hits home.

HAMMOND:

Spared no expense.

95OMITTED 96EXTPARKDAWN The sun comes up over Jurassic Park. The danger of the night before is overcome by the sheer beauty of the place - - it really is like the Serengeti Plain.

Over at the edge of a great open field, a huge tree marks the border between the open area and the thick of the jungle.

UP IN THE TREE, GRANT, TIM, and LEX are asleep in the branches of the tree, both kids now curled up under Grant's arms.

A heavy shadow falls over all three of them, blocking out the sun entirely. Grant awakens, only a little bit asleep, as - - - - a brachiosaur's head pushes into the tree branches, right up beside them. It hesitates there for a second, seemingly staring at them. Grant just watches as it opens its mouth very wide and CHOMPS down on a branch over their heads.

The kids awaken with a start. Tim points, Lex opens her mouth to scream, but nothing comes out. Then - -
