Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Culture Clash

This week’s theme — arrest, suggested by Teddy Pasternak — has been going quite well and thanks for all your recommendations. But it’s time to think about next week’s theme which is Culture Clash, suggested by Debbie Moon:

The usual drill:

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

* Copy/paste the URL of an accompanying video from MovieClips or YouTube.

I’d also ask you to think about why the dialogue is notable. Is there anything about the dialogue which provides some takeaway re screenwriting?

Here is the lineup for upcoming Daily Dialogue themes:

April 1-April 7: Death [SandbaggerOne]

April 8-April 14: Action hero wisecracks [Shaula Evans]

April 15-April 21: Fan boy/girl conversations [plinytheelder]
