Daily Dialogue — May 21, 2014

Guard: you won’t get away that easy!
Aladdin: You think that was easy?

— Aladdin (1992), written by Ron Clements, John Muskier

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Robbery. Today’s suggestion: Aarthi Jayaraman.

Trivia: Because Robin Williams ad-libbed so many of his lines, the script was turned down for a Best Adapted Screenplay Academy Award nomination.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Commentary from Aarthi: “Why do I love this scene? Because it makes a crime like robbery a ton of fun, doused with excitement and action, not to mention it immediately sets in motion the character of quick-witted, fast-talking Aladdin and his complicated life… making him delightful to watch right from the outset.”
