Daily Dialogue — August 20, 2018

Andrews: I asked you a simple question. Do you love my daughter?
Peter: Yes! But don’t hold that against me! I’m a little screwy myself!

— It Happened One Night (1934), screen play by Robert Riskin, based on a short story by Samuel Hopkins Adams

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Confession.

Trivia: One of three movies to win the Big Five Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Getting this week of confessions off to a solid start by embracing non-religious admissions by movie characters, even if the tone of Peter Warne’s statement of fact doesn’t much sound like a confession of love.
