Daily Dialogue — February 14, 2018

“I was just blow drying my hair, thought I heard the phone ring. Ah… has that ever happened to you? Anyway… call me, we’ll talk about it.”

— The Cable Guy (1996), written by Lou Holtz Jr.

This week’s Daily Dialogue theme: Voice Mail.

Trivia: Movie based on a spec script which sold for $1M, but substantially rewritten by Judd Apatow to make it ‘darker’ per Jim Carrey’s request. Yet Apatow did not receive any writing credit.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Voice mail is an excellent way to convey a character as stalker.
