Blow Page #19

Synopsis: In the turbulence of the 1970s, the international drug trade underwent a fast, violent and lucrative revolution - and one ordinary American was at its center. But in just a few short years, George Jung (Johnny Depp), a high-school football star single handedly became the world's premiere importer of cocaine from Colombia's Medellin cartel, changing the course of an entire generation. "Blow" is a high-velocity look at George Jung's spectacular rise and fall.

GEORGE:

You shouldn't have taken the 30 million,

Diego, I was out.

George is lead away.

CLERK:

The court calls Mr. Jack Stevens.

Jack Stevens is lead to the stand. WE SLOWLY DISSOLVE TO:

INT. CAR - 1999 - DAY

The green of the New York State countryside drifts by as a

brown Mazda moves along Highway 19. Behind the wheel is a

beautiful 20 year old woman wearing dark sunglasses. She

drives absently, her mind somewhere else.

INT. OTISVILLE F.C.I. - VISITOR'S ENTRANCE - 1999 - DAY

The woman is buzzed through the double doors. She moves to

the MAN behind the desk and takes off her sunglasses.

KRISTINA:

I'm here to see my father.

ADMISSIONS OFFICER

Name?

KRISTINA:

Kristina Sunshine Jung.

EXT. OTISVILLE F.C.I. - LATE AFTERNOON

The GUARDS are rounding up the other prisoners and escorting

them inside, but George is still planting sunflowers.

GUARD:

Hey, George, five more minutes, buddy.

INT. VISITOR'S ENTRANCE - CONTINUOUS

The admissions officer looks up from his paperwork.

ADMISSIONS OFFICER

Jung.

Kristina grabs her papers and moves to the counter.

ADMISSIONS OFFICER (CONT'D)

Belongings in here.

Kristina empties her pockets and deposits her possessions

into a locker box. She is handed a key.

ADMISSIONS OFFICER (CONT'D)

Feet on the blue line.

Kristina stands on a blue piece of tape and the admissions

officer buzzes open the giant metal door. But Kristina

doesn't move.

ADMISSIONS OFFICER (CONT'D)

Miss?

He presses the buzzer again, but she just stands there.

ADMISSIONS OFFICER (CONT'D)

Miss? Something wrong?

EXT. OTISVILLE F.C.I. - CONTINUOUS

George turns around as a GUARD taps him on the shoulder.

GUARD:

George? George, come on. You've got a

visitor.

George looks up to find Kristina being buzzed through the

gate. She moves through the open area and onto the grass

quickly. SLOW MOTION: Father and daughter come together at

last in a long embrace.

GEORGE:

I'm sorry, baby. I'm so sorry.

KRISTINA:

It's alright, Dad.

GEORGE:

I didn't mean to...

KRISTINA:

I know, Dad. I know...

He hugs her hard.

GEORGE:

I f***ed up.

KRISTINA:

Shhhh.

GEORGE:

I love you. I love you so much. You've

got to know that. You've got to know.

KRISTINA:

I know, Dad. I love you too.

GEORGE:

After everything. After everything, the

only thing left out of my whole life is

you.

Kristina looks at her father, smiles, and disappears. There

was no Kristina. The guard continues to tap.

GUARD:

George? George, come on. It's getting

dark.

George looks up to find a prison guard. His name is GUS, and

he helps George to his feet.

GEORGE:

But I have a visitor.

GUS:

Not today, George. Time to go back.

GEORGE:

But I want to put her name on the list

for tomorrow. My daughter.

GUS:

Okay, George.

GEORGE:

Because she's visiting me.

GUS:

We'll do that tomorrow, okay? It's

lockdown time.

The shadows grow long, and Gus leads George down a cement

path that cuts through the grass. The huge structure of

Otisville looms dark against the sky, and Gus and George take

the long walk back.

EXT. OTISVILLE F.C.I. - NEW YORK - DUSK

Standing outside the fences, Kristina smokes a cigarette as

she watches her father being led away. After a few moments,

she turns around, walks to her car and gets in. Time to go

home. And as the brown Mazda pulls out of the driveway, the

taillights turn red, growing smaller and smaller, until they

finally disappear.

THE END.
