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

Sam splashes hopelessly toward the boat.

SAM:

Of course you are...and I'm coming with you!

FRODO:

You can't swim.

Sam starts to go under, spluttering and coughing...Frodo drops his paddle and scrambles backwards in the boat... FRODO (CONT'D) (frightened) Sam!

Sam is underwater...hands flailing helplessly as he sinks.

Close on:

Frodo's hand grasping Sam's... Frodo pulls a bedraggled and half drowned Sam into the boat. Frodo and Sam look at each other, out of breath, tears and water streaming down both their faces.

SAM:

I made a promise, Mr. Frodo...a promise.

(fierce passion) "Don't you leave him, Samwise Gamgee."

(sobs) And I don't mean to...I don't mean to.

FRODO:

(crying) Oh, Sam!

Frodo starts to laugh through his tears...the two friends hug.

FRODO (CONT'D) Come on then..

The two Hobbits row through the water... EXT. FALLS OF RAUROS AERIAL -- DAY

Slow motion:

Looking down on swiftly flowing water...Boromir's body slides under camera.

He is lying in one of the boats, his arms across his chest..his broken horn at his side. Suddenly... the boat drops away from camera...as it plunges over the massive falls of Rauros, disappearing into the vapor below.

(CONTINUED) 117.

LEGOLAS:

If we are quick, we will catch Frodo and Sam before nightfall.

Aragorn looks towards the far shore; Frodo and Sam's small Boat can be seen lying on the distant Riverbank as Frodo and Sam make off into the forest beyond. He doesn't react.

Legolas turns and looks at Aragorn.

LEGOLAS (CONT'D) You mean not to follow them...

ARAGORN:

Frodo's fate is no longer in our hands.

GIMLI:

Then it has all been in vain...the fellowship has failed.

ARAGORN:

Not if we hold true to each other. We will not abandon Merry and Pippin to torment and death, not while we have strength left.

Aragorn pulls a HUNTING KNIFE out of his pack and straps it on.

ARAGORN (CONT'D) Leave all that can be spared behind...
