Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Regret

The Daily Dialogue theme for next week: Regret, suggested by Pj Woodside.

Born on the Fourth of July (1989)

Regret born of despair. Regret tinged in anger. Regret as confession. Regret as acceptance. What memorable movie moments come to mind in which a character or characters express regret?

Consecutive days of Daily Dialogue posts: 2,753.

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.
