THIS IS NOT A REPEAT! We forgot that we already covered dialogue, in episode 0007, but what the heck, here’s another take on it. Dialogue is what happens when characters talk, and accounts for upwards of 80 percent of your screenplay’s word count. When writing dialogue, remember to keep it “I and I,” interactive and interesting. The guys do script surgery on “The Devil Wears Prada” and Ryan shares his idea, “Jean Chrétien et moi,” a bilingual buddy cop comedy.
