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

SAM:

But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. [The women and children welcome the men as they return. Éowyn runs up to Aragorn and embraces him, crying tears of relief.] Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. [Isengard is flooded. Merry and Pippin looks on from their perch on Treebeard. On the balcony, Saruman stumbles back into his chamber] And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you.

That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now.

Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn’t. They kept going because they were holding on to something.

FRODO:

What are we holding on to, Sam?

SAM:

There’s some good in this world, Mr.

Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.

[Standing in a corner, even Gollum seems moved. Faramir walks over and comes to kneel in front of Frodo]

FARAMIR:

I think at last we understand one another, Frodo Baggins.

MADRIL:

You know the laws of our country, the laws of your father. If you let them go, your life will be forfeit.

FARAMIR:

Then it is forfeit. Release them.

[Sam shakes the ranger’s hand from his shoulder. Frodo looks up at Faramir with gladness. Over in the realm of Rohan, Gandalf, Théoden and company ride to the top of a slope, looking towards the Mountain of Fire in the distance.]

GANDALF:

Sauron’s wrath will be terrible, his retribution swift. The battle for Helm’s Deep is over. The battle for Middle-earth is about to begin. All our hopes now lie with two little hobbits. Somewhere in the wilderness.

[Frodo and Sam are walking through the woods, away from Osgiliath.]

SAM:

I wonder if we’ll ever be put into songs or tales.

FRODO:

What?

SAM:

I wonder if people will ever say, ‘let’s hear about Frodo and the Ring.’ And they’ll say ‘yes, that’s one of my favorite stories. Frodo was really courageous, wasn’t he, dad.’ ‘Yes, my boy, the most famousest of hobbits. And that’s saying alot.’

FRODO:

Huh, you left out one of the chief characters – Samwise the Brave. I want to hear more about Sam.

[Frodo turns to look at Sam.]

FRODO:

Frodo wouldn’t have got far without Sam.

SAM:

Now Mr. Frodo, you shouldn’t make fun.

I was being serious.

FRODO:

[smiling] So was I. [He turns to walk on]

SAM:

[Dreamily] Samwise the Brave. [He gives his backpack a heave and follows Frodo] [Gollum is crouching a short distance away]

FRODO:

Sméagol!

SAM:

We’re not gonna wait for you. Come on!
