Migration (2023) | Transcript

January 23, 2024

After a migrating duck family alights on their pond with thrilling tales of far-flung places, the Mallard family embarks on a family road trip, from New England, to New York City, to tropical Jamaica

Migration is a 2023 American animated comedy by Illumination, directed by Benjamin Renner and Guylo Homsy, and produced by Chris Meledandri. Written by Mike White, it stars voices like Kumail Nanjiani and Elizabeth Banks. The story follows a mallard family convincing their father to migrate from New England to Jamaica. Renner’s transition from traditional to computer animation marks a creative shift for Illumination. The film premiered in October 2023 at the VIEW Conference in Italy and was released in the U.S. on December 22.

Plot summary: In this captivating tale, set in a New England forest, Mack Mallard, an overprotective father, initially resists the idea of his family joining migrating ducks headed to Jamaica. Influenced by conversations with his Uncle Dan and his wife Pam’s insistence, he eventually allows the adventure. The Mallards’ journey is fraught with challenges, from a scary night spent with a heron couple to navigating the urban jungle of New York City, where they encounter a diverse array of birds including Chump, the pigeon leader, and Delroy, a caged macaw longing for freedom. Their mission to free Delroy leads them into unexpected danger, including a terrifying encounter with a chef intent on capturing them for his duck farm. The story climaxes with a thrilling rescue operation, where the family’s courage and ingenuity shine, and ends with the Mallards reaching Jamaica, where they meet old friends and new challenges, symbolized by a group of penguins aiming for the South Pole. This journey not only brings physical adventures but also emotional growth, particularly for Mack and his son Dax, as they learn the importance of bravery, freedom, and family bonds.

Ooh. Oohlala.

MACK: And now for a bedtime story.

♪ ♪

(ducks quacking)

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful pond.

It was paradise.

Everyone was happy there.

(rhythmic quacking)

Well, not everyone.

For two ducklings were suffering from a strange condition.

They were bored.

(sighs)

(bird tweets)

And they were eager to discover what lay beyond

their cozy little pond.

Come on. Let’s have a look.

But Daddy says it’s dangerous to leave the pond.

(scoffs) We’re brave and strong.

We ain’t scared of nothing.

MACK: So they decided to go for it,

straight into the arms of…

(bird screeching)

predators!

(grunts)

(bird screeches)

(laughs)

They were surrounded, trapped.

(birds squawking)

But the ducklings were not afraid.

The tiny heroes attacked the predator, and… they died.

The end.

Uh, that’s all? They’re dead?

Oh, yeah. No survivors.

But how?

Oh, you want details? Okay.

So, first, the heron cut them in half…

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

(chuckling): Wait a second here.

Your father got the story wrong again.

What really happened was:

The heron saw that they were lost,

so she offered to help them.

MACK: Pam, it’s a heron.

A psycho killer designed to eat ducklings.

(heron roaring)

PAM: All right, fine.

The heron was about to eat them.

But their parents arrived just in time and saved them.

MACK: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Their parents arrived, but it was too late.

Oh, Dax, don’t worry.

It’s going to be okay.

Really, Dad?

Yeah, sure.

Squished ducks, they can achieve great things, too.

As long as they stay in the pond far from the dangers of the world, such as herons and bears and wolves and storms and cyclones and tornadoes and crocodiles and poisonous mushrooms…

Okay. I really need to get to bed now.

MACK: …and sabertoothed tigers…

What happened to the other duckling?

Was she squished, too?

PAM: Oh, no, no, no.

Don’t worry, Gwen.

The ducklings were both safe.

They just went on their way right back to the pond.

But another predator came in and…

And wished them good day.

(chuckles) The end.

(muffled grunt)

That’s it.

(groans)

Okay.

(panting)

(voice shaking): Good night, Mom.

Good night, Dad.

Good night.

(muffled chattering)

(scoffs)

What?

Every time you tell a story, Gwen wets her twig bed.

Does she? That’s great.

See? That means she’s learning, Pam.

Oh, learning what?

That she should never leave the pond?

Exactly.

Trust me, I’m teaching her very valuable fears.

I should know. I’ve lived with them my entire life.

(sighs)

So have we all.

Good night, honey.

Good night, sweetheart.

I could show you around.

But we’re just passing by on our way down south.

We’re gonna spend the winter there.

Where are you guys going?

We spend winter here

Wait. So you don’t go anywhere for the winter?

Uh, nope.

What? Really?

Yes! Your flock could totally join ours.

Oh, my gosh, this will be so cool.

You will love migrating. The sun, the sand.

Wait. Do you like tropical food?

What’s your take on bananas?

Oh. I don’t…

Ah, you’re gonna love ’em!

You hold this. I’ll go ask my dad.

Dad! Dad!

What just happened?

Dad!

I don’t know, but you’re in trouble.

MACK: Dax! Gwen!

Are you crazy? You can’t just take off like that.

He made me do it!

What?

And he talked to a girl.

A girl?

Gwen!

Yeah, and he told her he wants to marry her.

What? I didn’t say that!

You said it with your eyes.

Dad, he’s hitting me! He’s hitting me!

Hey, hey, hey, hey! Enough! Enough!

Sibling cruelty!

Enough.

Okay. Hello.

Hi. Hi. Big hellos.

And we’re good. Let’s go.

Mack.

What? I said hi.

I smiled. I made eye contact.

I checked all the boxes.

Hey there.

I hear you want to join our migration.

Sorry?

Oh, we’re going back to Jamaica.

Have you ever been?

No.

Oh, it’s just magical.

I swear, there’s even a luminous lagoon

where the water glows.

Oh, wow. Oh, I really want to see that.

(chuckling): Well, then it is settled.

Your whole flock can join us.

This is gonna be great.

Oh, gosh. That’s…

(laughing): That’s just so nice of you.

Wait, wait, wait. (chuckles)

I think there’s a slight misunderstanding here.

Unfortunately, we’re just slammed this winter.

Aren’t we, Pam?

‘Cause we’ve got the thing, and then the… (stammering)

We got the thing after that. So, you know what? We can’t go.

But you guys go.

Have a great time.

And, you know, tell the glowing water we said hi.

Uh, well, maybe next year, then?

MACK: You got it. Next year!

Uh, well, I guess it’s time for us to go.

Uh, have a nice trip.

Thanks. (chuckles)

Have a nice… pond.

I’m so sorry you can’t have babies with her.

(ducks squawking in distance)

That was so… rude!

I know.

“Have a nice pond.”

Who says that?

That’s just poor parenting.

Not them. You.

Me?

Yes, you.

Okay. So I got a little carried away.

(chuckles): But migration?

What a stupid idea.

Ugh. Okay. You’re impossible.

Why?

Because I found a safe place for us to live

and we’re happy here?

You mean you’re happy here.

What?

II want us to get out and see the world.

Me, too, Dad.

Yeah.

I want to go to Jamai… Jam… J…

No home improvements?

What sort of father would I be

if I put my young fowl in harm’s way

for no reason except a chance at a Caribbean vacation?

A father who knows it’s important for his kids

to see other parts of the world.

Mack, I don’t want to miss out on life

because you’re afraid to leave this pond.

This isn’t about migration.

It’s about adventure.

Seeing what else life has to offer.

Is that a little scary? Sure.

But isn’t it worth it?

No, Pam.

Not really.

You really need to open your eyes, Mack,

before you miss it all.
