THEORY OF CONVERSATION
Dear reader: you often had to spend a phenomenon like this: there are several friends and initiate a chat. They jump from topic to topic and then suddenly stop and try to reconstruct the path followed by the issues until the last.
Reconstruction is always difficult: they started talking up the dollar and someone said I had to pay a dollar operation, and he earned in Bolivia. Then another gap in the memory of a stranger who feels pain in the lung and changed the subject in that direction. Beside him, a friend recalled that he had smoked much in his youth and feared by a sore throat that could be cancer. Opposite him someone remembered that a famous singer has undergone an operation because you have cysts on your vocal cords. A lady shudders then because the gynecologist said that apparently has ovarian cysts. Her boyfriend knows she's a woman of agouti and would like to say that it is firmly planted ovaries.
side The friend laughs recalling a love scene with a brave woman who was unable to tame. Another, who is riding instructor, recalls a mare that anyone can ride because it is too Chuc.
blockers, other than an entrepreneur thinks so wild they do not understand anything. If you could get rid of them would only take a shot. There is a shooting champion in the table and that in a month will defend his title ... Anyway.
interesting thing is that the course of the conversation beyond our control it seems ruled by our instincts and not by reason. There is nothing like the Platonic dialogues, which are an unlikely sequence of reasoning. Conversation, trivia they say, is risky, volatile, jumping, and sometimes gets stuck in a vicious circle. This occurs particularly with some damas que se ponen a discutir horas sobre las dimensiones del taco italiano o la calidad de la popelina para hacer sábanas.
Patinan y patinan tanto que se cansan y al final parecen despertar de una pesadilla. Es que parece un mecanismo de los sueños.
Todas estas reflexiones apuntan a la libertad y al libre juego de azar con que debemos escribir los diálogos de un relato. Si contamos una tertulia, lo peor que podemos hacer es desarrollar una tesis tras otra como si se tratara de una lectura de libros filosóficos. No. La tertulia tiene otro rumbo, otra teoría; tiene caprichos ingobernables, como una veleta sometida a vientos encontrados. Entonces la only good way to write dialogue is to be carried away by chance, we participate effectively as a true gathering of friends. Only then amazing results can be obtained and, above all, no rhetoric.
I say this because the writer's craft is ungrateful. Not win a fucking grip. But a good writer of dialogue is particularly coveted by the writers and filmmakers. Refine this noble art of writing dialogue can be the beginning of a fruitful career.
