Legendary Pictures '42' written by Brian Helgeland White - March 14, 2012 Blue Revised - April 7, 2012 Pink Revised - April 19, 2012 Yellow Revised - April 24, 2012 Green Revised - April 27, 2012 Goldenrod Revised - May 9, 2012 Buff Revised - May 29, 2012 Salmon Revised - June 4, 2012 Cherry Revised - June 11, 2012 Tan Revised - June 25, 2012 Double White Revised - June 28, 2012 Double Blue Revised - July 9, 2012 PINK REV 4-19-12 1. A1 WHITE A1 * Fills the screen. Falling from the top of frame to the * bottom. Pluming off into dust. White, white, white. We * move toward it even as it recedes, always out of reach. * Finally we pop out wide and high to reveal... * The white is chalk. An old BLACK GROUNDSKEEPER lays down the * right field line on a baseball diamond. * ‘42’ * 1 INT. BRANCH RICKEY’S OFFICE - MONTAGUE ST, BROOKLYN - DAY 1 * Blinds closed. Dust motes in the air. A large GOLDFISH TANK bubbles. BRANCH RICKEY at his desk. Two photos on the wall: Abe Lincoln & Leo Durocher. CHALKBOARDS covered with 100's OF NAMES, every player in the Dodger organization. CLYDE SUKEFORTH and HAROLD PARROTT sit across from Rickey who stares at them. Sukeforth stares back. Parrott nervous. RICKEY Gentlemen, I have a plan... As of now, only the Board of Directors and my family know. Sukeforth and Parrott exchange a look. SUKEFORTH A plan’s always good, Mr. Rickey. And you always got one. RICKEY My wife says I’m too old, That my health isn’t up to it. My son says that every one in baseball will be against me. But I'm going to do it. Parrott looks to Sukeforth who keeps his eyes on Rickey. SUKEFORTH Do what, Mr. Rickey? RICKEY I'm going to bring a Negro ballplayer to the Brooklyn Dodgers. PARROTT With all due respect, sir, have you lost your mind? Imagine the abuse you’ll take from the newspapers alone. Never mind how it’ll play on Flatbush. Please, Mr. Rickey. Rickey looks dismissively at Parrott, over to Sukeforth. PINK REV 4-19-12 1A. RICKEY There’s no law against it, Clyde. SUKEFORTH There’s a code. Break a law and get away with it, some people think you’re smart. Break an unwritten law though, you’ll be an outcast. YELLOW REV 4-24-12 2. RICKEY So be it. New York is full of Negro baseball fans; every dollar is green. I don't know who he is, or where he is, but he’s coming. CUT TO: 2 EXT. RICKWOOD FIELD - BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA - NIGHT 2 The big Birmingham Black Barons CATCHER behind the plate as Kansas City Monarchs JOHN SCOTT stands at bat. The catcher’s attention on the RUNNER DANCING off first. Stomping a foot, feinting, hard to see clearly in the glare of the lights. CATCHER Where’d you learn to move like that, runner?! At dime a dance night?! Stay quiet! INSERT: Birmingham, Alabama. April 8, 1945. * On the first pitch the runner takes off. The catcher fires to second. See it from his POV as the runner slides in “SAFE!” A foot on the bag, the runner dusts off, heckles the catcher: RUNNER Is that the best you got?! Huh?! I’m going to steal nine, ten bases today! You better start counting! The catcher frowns. Standing, we see he is a big, big man. CATCHER (Alabaman) Where’s your shortstop from? JOHN SCOTT (Louisianan) California. CATCHER He’s got a mouth on him. Shaking his head, the catcher gets back in his crouch, signals the PITCHER. On the wind-up, the Runner is off again. The catcher fires to THIRD: “Safe!” RUNNER You got a rag arm, catcher! CATCHER Steal home! You’ll find out what kind of arm I got! DBL. BLUE REV 7-9-12 3. RUNNER Okay, I’m coming! The Catcher looks over at Scott who chuckles. CATCHER California, huh? (Scott nods) Well California here he goes, if he comes down here. The Catcher gets back down in his squat. Signals the pitcher: fastball. Scott digs in, ready. The runner dancing off third. Here comes the wind-up... The Runner takes off even as the pitcher fires it in. The Birmingham Catcher receives it. As the Runner slides -- The Catcher intentionally drives his glove, the ball and both hands into the runner’s face -- WHALLOP! Sound drops as we’re knocked flat senseless along with the runner. ON HIM now as he tries to push himself up from the dirt. A close look at JACK ROOSEVELT ROBINSON. A born battler, he shakes out the cobwebs, finally lurches to his feet, looks to the UMPIRE. He never heard the call. JACK What was I? The umpire passes one hand over the other: Safe. Jack looks over at the catcher, gives him a pointed look as he goes -- The catcher shoves him in the back. Jack turns, shoves back. As the two men wrestles each other to the ground -- CUT TO: 3 INT. BRANCH RICKEY’S OFFICE - MONTAGUE ST, BROOKLYN - DAY 3 Rickey and Sukeforth going through stacks of FILES on the desk. A black ballplayer’s picture is clipped to each. As * Rickey reviews one, Sukeforth tries to hand him another. * SUKEFORTH Josh Gibson. Oh boy can he hit. RICKEY No. SUKEFORTH No? Rickey won’t take the file; the answer is no. * DBL. BLUE REV 7-9-12 4. SUKEFORTH Alright. Roy Campanella. Sukeforth holds it out; Rickey won’t take it. * RICKEY A heck of a player. But too sweet, they’ll eat him alive. SUKEFORTH (holds up file) * Satchel Paige then. Parrott enters carrying an armful of files. * RICKEY Too old. We need a man with a future not a past. * (holds up his own * file) * Here. Jack Roosevelt Robinson. * As Parrott sets them on the desk, they start to slide off, * spilling to the floor. Helpless to stem the tide, Parrott looks down, surrounded by black faces... RICKEY * (flips through file) A four sport college man, out of UCLA. That means he’s played with white boys. (scans file) Twenty-six years old, now with the Kansas City Monarchs. Batting over 350 even as we speak. 350! And he * was a commissioned army officer! SUKEFORTH He was court-martialed. A trouble maker. He argues with umpires. A quick temper is his reputation. Rickey is obviously keen on him. * PARROT * What was he court-martialed for? * RICKEY * For refusing to sit in the back of * a military bus. * (checks the file) * Ft. Hood, Texas. The driver asked * him to move back. The MPs had to * take him off. * * DBL. BLUE REV 7-9-12 5. SUKEFORTH Do you see? * RICKEY I see he resents segregation. If * he were white, we’d call it spirit! * PARROT * If he were white, sir, we wouldn’t * be looking for him. Rickey ends the debate... * RICKEY * Robinson’s a Methodist. I’m a * Methodist. God’s a Methodist. We * can’t go wrong. Find him. Bring him * here. * CUT TO: 4 EXT. FILLING STATION - INTERSTATE 24 - DAY 4 A BLOODHOUND watches as a BUS pulls into a SERVICE STATION, the tires RING the bell hose. A million miles easy on this road rumbler. The BANNER reads: KC Monarchs. Insert: Interstate 24, Missouri - August 24, 1945. The DRIVER steps off. The fellas follow, getting off to stretch their legs. Hot and tired. A WHITE ATTENDANT saunters out. The driver steps over to meet him. ATTENDANT Fill her up? DRIVER Yes, sir. The attendant starts unscrewing caps on two 50-GALLON TANKS. ATTENDANT Where you all headed? Chicago. DRIVER As the attendant shoves down a pump, starts filling, Jack steps off. He spots and heads for a restroom. White Men Only lettered on the door. The attendant roused as he sees. ATTENDANT Hey! Where you going, boy!? BLUE REV 4-07-12 6. Everyone looking over as Jack stops. JACK I'm going to the toilet. ATTENDANT Shit, boy, c’mon. You know you can't go in there. Jack does a slow burn, then suddenly strides toward the attendant. The air rife with tension. JACK Take that hose out of the tank. Huh? ATTENDANT DRIVER Robinson -- JACK Take it out. We'll get our ninetynine gallons of gas someplace else. The attendant blinks. He takes a look from Jack to up and down the deserted highway. No business in sight. ATTENDANT Okay, use it. But don't stay in there too long. Jack heads back. The Driver, the players, a bit s 内容过长,仅展示头部和尾部部分文字预览,全文请查看图片预览。 e in Game One. He was elected to the * Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962. * We end on a montage of Jackie Robinson Day in present time. Every year in April, all MLB players wear the number 42 as a reminder of Jackie's accomplishments on and off the field. The number 42 is the only number retired by all of baseball. * We see 42s leaving their dugouts, 42s at bat, 42s in the field, 42s signing autographs, 42s stealing bases, 42s lined up for the National Anthem.
