Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Parental Advice

The Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Parental Advice suggested by Michael Waters.

“This town is no place for any man unless he’s willing to crawl to Potter.
You’ve got talent, son. I’ve seen it. You get yourself an education. Then get out of here.”

It’s a Wonderful Life (1946)

Good ol’ Mom and Dad. Or perhaps they’re rotten to the core. In any event, there are plenty of examples of memorable movie exchanges between parent and child.

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: 2,872.
