Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Elation

The Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Elation.

“Hello, Bedford Falls!!!”

Ah, cinematic moments of rapturous joy, either deserved or a setup for a big fall. Dig through your movie memories and see what images spring to mind where characters were filled with elation. And thank you in advance for your suggestions!

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 re screenwriting?

Here is our lineup for upcoming Daily Dialogue themes:

Check this out: The GITS Daily Dialogue Topic Index! You can read about Liz and Allie, two sisters who are big fans of the blog, and were inspired to create the index. A great resource for writers looking for inspiration for their own dialogue writing. You can be a part of this proud tradition with your ideas for weekly themes and Daily Dialogue suggestions.

Please post your ideas for this week’s theme — Elation — in comments. Thanks!
