Daily Dialogue — September 16, 2014

“I tried so hard to make it go away. I thought that I could do it for you and for the kids. I can’t… I just… I can’t.”

— Far From Heaven (2002), written by Todd Haynes

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Adultery.

Trivia: This was the last feature film to have an original score by Elmer Bernstein.

Dialogue On Dialogue: In movies, it seems like the act of adultery almost always comes to light. That can happen in a number of ways. In Far From Heaven, the revelation comes in the form of a confession. I suspect the more common manner is the affair being discovered. Anyone have any suggestions for those type of movie moments?

If you have a suggestion for this week’s theme, please post in comments.
