Daily Dialogue — December 13, 2016

“It’s as if there’s blood on my hands. It’s not coming off.”

— Casino Royale (2006), screenplay by Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and Paul Haggis; based on the novel by Ian Fleming

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Fish-Out-Of-Water, suggested by Will King who also recommended today’s selection.

Trivia: In the shower scene, Vesper was originally scripted to be wearing nothing but her underwear. Daniel Craig argued that Vesper would not have stopped to take her clothes off, and the scene was changed.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Commentary by Will: “Vesper Lynd was a match for James Bond when they first met, an equal verbal sparring partner. But when she experiences the kind of life Bond leads, including death, she finds herself definitely out of her league.”
