Daily Dialogue — March 24, 2017

“He tastes like you, but sweeter!”

— Closer (2004), screenplay by Patrick Marber, based on his play

The Daily Dialogue theme this week: Insult. Today’s suggestion by Ellen Waitt.

Trivia: The line “It tastes like you, but sweeter” was used as a lyric in the Fall Out Boy song “Thnks fr th Mmrs”.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Track the building intensity which is tethered to the specificity and rawness of the revelations about the sexual act. Anna’s (Julia Roberts) line is the most devastating kind of insult: The truth.
