Daily Dialogue — December 1, 2018

“Hello. Hello. Anybody home?”

— Back to the Future (1985), written by Robert Zemeckis, Bob Gale

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Callback.

Trivia: The script was rejected forty four times before it was finally green-lit.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Due to the time travel aspect of the story, this is an intriguing callback because the set-up takes place in the present while the callback occurs in the past. Maybe we should call it a fallback.
