Daily Dialogue — March 8, 2013

Scarlett: Rhett, Rhett… Rhett, if you go, where shall I go? What shall I do?
Rhett Butler: Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.

— Gone With the Wind (1939), screenplay by Sidney Howard, novel by Margaret Mitchell

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week is breakup, courtesy of a suggestion by Liri Nàvon.

Trivia: The movie’s line “Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.” was voted as the #1 movie quote by the American Film Institute (out of 100).

Dialogue On Dialogue: This is the ending of a breakup long in the making. Rhett’s line puts the “emph” in emphatic.
