Daily Dialogue — October 19, 2016

Joe Turner: I’d like to go back to New York.
Joubert: You have not much future there. It will happen this way. You may be walking. Maybe the first sunny day of the spring. And a car will slow beside you, and a door will open, and someone you know, maybe even trust, will get out of the car. And he will smile, a becoming smile. But he will leave open the door of the car and offer to give you a lift.

— Three Days of the Condor (1975), screenplay by Lorenzo Semple Jr. and David Rayfiel, novel by James Grady

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Cover Up, suggested by Will King.

Trivia: The film inspired the story structure for Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014).

Dialogue On Dialogue: A cover-up within a cover-up. The initial one within the CIA, then the potential one to wipe out Joe Turner.
