Stylised Dialogue
- Stylised dialogue is the way in which writers write a script for their film. It mainly focuses on the genre, era and place it is set. Whatever film the writer is writing about, they have to make sure that the dialogue fits in with the time and genre as "genre changes over time".
- Stylised dialogue can also be used to convey the characteristics and traits about a certain character so that the audience can connect with the person on screen. Even though people do not use those kind of dialogues in every day life it can usually be used in a sarcastic way, but overall it's a unused language in modern day life. However, on television it is used for the means of the narrative or a way in which to portray the characters.
For Example, Django Unchained it is written in more of a modern and westerised language, an example of a piece of stylised dialogue in this film would be "Shit negro", this was used to make an effect on the audience by emphasising the character's traits.
Another example will be, Macbeth which was written in posh and formal English language. This is due to the way Shakespeare wrote his plays in the Victorian era of which it is based upon. For Example: " He unseam'd him from the nave to the chops".
