Daily Dialogue — January 26, 2012

“Keep your loving brother happy.”

— Frank (Henry Fonda), Once Upon a Time in the West (1968), screenplay by Sergio Leone & Sergio Donati, story by Dario Argento & Bernardo Bertolucci & Sergio Leone

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week is flashbacks, suggested by Alexander Gorelik. Today’s suggestion by Teddy Pasternak.

Trivia: The final duel between Frank and Harmonica is shot almost exactly like the one in Robert Aldrich’s The Last Sunset between Rock Hudson and Kirk Douglas, a film that Bernardo Bertolucci was a huge fan of.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Nothing like dialogue tied to a powerful talisman to pack a wallop.
