First, it was the moving image interlaced with posters that could well explain the situation or state the phrase the actor was"saying", while a gentleman played the piano live to soften the projection. Only with that was enough for people to start wanting the cinema and adopt it as a source of entertainment, parallel to the theater and opera. But only with the inclusion of sound was it possible to catch the audience completely.

From that point on, the films became more than framing, makeup and narrative scripts. Writers came to play a fundamental role, becoming writers, whose work was (and continues to be), creating dialogues that not only carry the thread of events and characters, but also remain in the memory of those who enjoy the work final.

That is how today we can enjoy phrases loaded with true emotionality and, to our delight, we can repeat, quote and even brag a little to say them. The most beautiful thing is to remember the scene, the story behind each sentence and feel that tingling that we heard the first time.

There is no doubt that as long as there is cinema, writers will continue to offer us much more, hoping to fill our hearts and immortalize their dialogues.
