The Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Argument.

12 Angry Men (1957)

They say you can’t have good drama without conflict. And arguments are about as conflict-y as you can get! Let’s come up with 7 memorable movie moments with some great argumentative dialogue.

The usual drill:

* Copy/paste dialogue from IMDb Quotes or some other transcript source.

* Copy/paste the URL of an accompanying video from YouTube or some other video source.

I’d also ask you to think about why the dialogue is notable. Is there anything about the dialogue which provides some takeaway related to the craft of writing? If so, feel free to lay that wisdom on us.

Consecutive days of Daily Dialogue posts: 2,851.

Be a part of the proud Daily Dialogue tradition and make a suggestion!
