Daily Dialogue — April 23, 2015

“Don’t get cheap on me, Dodgson. That was Hammond’s mistake.”

— Jurassic Park (1993), screenplay by Michael Crichton and David Koepp, novel by Michael Crichton

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Betrayal.

Trivia: Nedry’s reasons for betraying Hammond are clearer in the novel, who is misled and never told anything about what goes on at Jurassic Park, forcing him to accept a bribe from a rival company.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Sometimes movie characters betray others and get away with it. But other times, they pay. And poor Mr. Nedry… he pays.
