Daily Dialogue — February 22, 2020

“In case I don’t see ya’… good afternoon, good evening, and good night.”

— The Truman Show (1998), written by Andrew Niccol

The Daily Dialogue theme for the week: Departure.

Trivia: Andrew Niccol rewrote the script twelve times, while Peter Weir created a fictionalized book about the show’s history. He envisioned backstories for the characters and encouraged actors to do the same.

Dialogue On Dialogue: Truman (Jim Carrey) departs with a callback to a line he uses often in his daily life. With his departure from the TV show, the line takes on a whole new meaning.
