指环王2：双塔奇兵The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers Movie Script

He senses the Ring is close. The strength of the Ringbearer is failing. In his heart, Frodo begins to understand. [Close-up of Galadriel] The quest will claim his life. You know this. You have foreseen it. It is the risk we all took.

[Close-up of the Ring spinning in slow motion] GALADRIEL (V.O.) In the gathering dark, the will of the Ring grows strong. It works hard now to find its way back into the hands of men.

[We see Faramir and Gondorian rangers with the captured Frodo and Sam.] GALADRIEL (V.O.) Men, who are so easily seduced by its power. The young captain of Gondor has but to extend his hands, take the Ring for his own and the world will fall.

It is close now, so close to achieving its goal.

[Faramir and company have reached Henneth Annûn. Frodo and Sam and being carries, blinded-folded into the cave.] GALADRIEL (V.O.) For Sauron will have dominion of all life on this Earth, even unto the ending of the world. The time of the Elves is over.

[Close-up of Galadriel's luminous eyes with their deep pools of wisdom. We then see Elrond in his library, looking at the painting of Isildur facing down Sauron with the broken blade of Narsil.] GALADRIEL (V.O.) Do we leave Middle-earth to its fate?

Do we let them stand alone?

[Scene returns to Henneth Annûn. Faramir is conferring with his man. They unroll a map.]

FARAMIR:

What news?

MADRIL:

Our scouts report Saruman has attacked Rohan. Théoden’s people have fled to Helm’s Deep. [Points at the map] But we must look to our own borders. Faramir, Orcs are on the move. Sauron is marshalling an army. Easterlings and Southrons are passing through the Black Gate.

FARAMIR:

How many?

MADRIL:

Some thousands. More come every day.

FARAMIR:

Who’s covering the river to the north?

MADRIL:

We pulled 500 men at Osgiliath, but if the city is attacked, we won’t hold it.

FARAMIR:

[Tracing on the map] Saruman attacks from Isengard. Sauron from Mordor. The fight will come to men on both fronts.

Gondor is weak. Sauron will strike us soon. And he will strike hard. He knows now we do not have the strength to repel him.

[The hobbits are unbound and blindfolds taken off them by Damrod and another ranger. Sam and Frodo find themselves in a cave behind a waterfall, with Damrod sitting behind them on a rock constantly watching them. Faramir comes up to them and sits.].

FARAMIR:

My men tell me that you are Orc spies.

SAM:

Spies?! Now wait just a minute!

FARAMIR:

Well if you’re not spies, then who are you?

[Frodo and Sam remain silent.]

FARAMIR:

Speak.

FRODO:

We are hobbits of the Shire. Frodo Baggins is my name and this is Samwise Gamgee.

FARAMIR:

Your bodyguard?

SAM:

His gardener.
