Jurassic Park (remake)/Transcript

The transcript for Jurassic Park (2024).

Prologue: Los Dinosaurios

 * (Universal logo appears, with the Earth's continents shown in their Jurassic positions)
 * (Amblin Entertainment logo appears)
 * (The film opens with a slow fade-in to a nighttime view of a coastal village in Nicaragua. It is raining very heavily, and the downpour is interspersed with strong gusts of wind. The sky is blanketed in thick clouds, and the sea is cloaked in fog. Occasional flashes of lightning appear in the sky, accompanied by the low rumbling of thunder. Close to the shore, we can see a lit building-a clinic.)
 * (Cut to inside of the clinic. The rain can be heard rattling loudly on the metal roof. Dr. Roberta "Bobby" Carter is staring blankly out a window at the deluge. She is clad in a tank top and cut-off jeans, with only a stethoscope around her neck giving away her profession. Behind her, her assistant, Manuel Aragón, is organizing medical supplies, but stops when he hears something. He cocks his head to listen.)
 * Manuel: Listen.
 * Bobby: (annoyed) Believe me, I hear it.
 * Manuel: No. Listen.
 * (Now Bobby picks up another sound above the rain. She presses her face to the window in anticipation of something approaching. The rhythmic thumping of a helicopter becomes audible. Bobby squints, not expecting a helicopter to be flying in such bad weather. But, sure enough, a helicopter materializes from the ocean fog and roars overhead as it passes by the clinic. However, instead of fading away, the drone of the chopper grows louder again. The helicopter hovers over the water's edge, then flies to the beach in front of the clinic. The chopper starts descending onto the wet sand. Bobby suddenly remembers her job and leaves the window to prepare for a patient's arrival.)
 * (The camera pans through the window and toward the helicopter. The chopper is silver with a blue stripe on its side. A logo on the chopper reads "InGen Construction". As the helicopter touches down on the beach, the pilot, his face clearly showing the stress endured during a harrowing flight, exhales in relief. Two uniformed men jump out of the helicopter and open its large side door. Out jump two crewmen carrying a limp man on a stretcher. As the crewmen carry the stretcher toward the clinic, they call for help in Spanish, shouting to make their voices heard above the roar of the helicopter. A red-haired man in a yellow slicker and Mets baseball cap climbs out of the helicopter. He is Ed Regis, public relations manager for InGen. Ed, a harried expression on his face, strides ahead of the stretcher when he sees Bobby running up.)
 * Ed: (shouting) Is there a doctor here?
 * Bobby: (running up) I'm Dr. Carter.
 * (Ed glances at Bobby's casual attire and frowns slightly)
 * Ed: Ed Regis. We've got a very sick man here, doctor.
 * Bobby: Then you better take him to Managua.
 * Ed: (scowling) We would, but this damned weather won't cooperate. You have to treat him here.
 * (The crewmen carry the stretcher into the clinic and, at Bobby's direction, set it down on a table. As Manuel sets up an IV, Bobby carefully lifts away the injured man's blood-soaked shirt, revealing a heavily lacerated shoulder. Bobby's eyes follow the wounds down to the patient's torso, which is covered in savage-looking tears. The patient suddenly lets out a convulsive gasp, and blood spurts out of the open wounds. Bobby chokes out a sound halfway between a gag and a sob.)
 * Bobby: What happened to him?
 * Ed: Construction accident. He fell and one of the backhoes ran over him.
 * (The patient wheezes, and Bobby reflexively turns her head to look him in the face. The man is clearly very young, no older than eighteen.)
