Daily Dialogue — November 22, 2015

Penny: I’m Penny, I’m Karen’s assistant.
Harold: I’m Harold, I’m her main character.

— Stranger Than Fiction (2006), written by Zach Helm

The Daily Dialogue theme for the month: Writers and Writing.

Trivia: The film borrows heavily from ‘Niebla’ by Miguel de Unamuno, a Spanish novel about a character who becomes aware he is being narrated by a writer and goes to visit him. In Unamuno’s story, however, the main character commits suicide.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Deja vu. Predestination. What if what we call Fate is being dictated by a writer?
