Is there a name for this sort of dialog where the character reveals a personal story of themselves.

The effect/impact reminds me of the moment in saving private ryan where theyre in the church after storming the beach and the characters are telling some story of their past

When writing a story, when is the most appropriate time to implement this sort of dialog?

AlBarra: Do you mind if I take this up in a post as a reader question?

Scott: I dont mind at all. Please do.

Btw: this is Belal Khan - @khanb1 from twitter

Hey, Belal! Nice to know the real name behind your various monikers. I'll try to get to your question on Tuesday or Wednesday this week.

I'll be looking forward to it :)
