指环王1：护戒使者 The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring Movie Script

Inn...towards... Wide on:

The party field. Where scOrcs of Hobbits are busy preparing for the big night.

GANDALF (CONT'D) Ah, the long expected party. So, how is the old rascal? I hear it's going to be a Party of Special Magnificence.

FRODO:

You know Bilbo...he's got he whole place in an uproar.

GANDALF:

Oh, well...that should please him.

(CONTINUED) 9.

FRODO:

Half the Shire's been invited...

GANDALF:

Good gracious, me.

FRODO:

He's up to something.

GANDALF:

Oh, really?

Frodo shoots a knowing look, as Gandalf averts his eyes.

FRODO:

Alright then..keep your secrets. Before you came along we Bagginses were very well thought of.

GANDALF:

Indeed?

FRODO:

Never had any adventures or did anything unexpected.

GANDALF:

If you're referring to the incident with the Dragon...I was barely involved...all I did was give your Uncle a little nudge out the door.

FRODO:

Whatever you did...you've been officially labelled as a Disturber of the Peace.

GANDALF:

Oh, really?

ANGLE ON:

ODO PROUDFOOT looks up as the Cart passes by, deeply suspicious.

CUT TO:

EXT. HOBBITON -- DAY

CRANE UP:

As the cart rattles into the small village of Hobbiton...a quaint rustic settlement, nestled amongst rolling green hills and large trees.

(CONTINUED) 10.

CONTINUED:

The Hobbits live in Hobbit Holes: neat burrows dug into the grassy hillside, with round doors and cute front gardens.

ANGLE ON:

Excited children, chasing after the cart.

CLOSE ON:

Gandalf ignOrcs the children's cries. The children stand deflated, watching Gandalf disappear up the lane. At that

moment:

spinning balls of bright color suddenly leap out of the cart, fizzing over the heads of the delighted children.

ANGLE ON:

Gandalf smiling to himself, well pleased with his joke. ODO PROUDFOOT is unable to suppress a chuckle. Frodo stands up in the cart as Gandalf reigns in the horse.
