Looper (2012), written by Rian Johnson JOE (V.O.): Time travel has not yet been invented. But thirty years from now it will have been. It will be instantly outlawed, used only in secret by the largest criminal organizations. It’s nearly impossible to dispose of a body in the future. I’m told. Tagging techniques and whatnot. So when these future criminal organizations in the future need someone gone, they use specialized assassins in our present, called loopers. And so. Thirty years from now. My employers in the future nab the target, they zap him back to me, their looper. He appears, hands tied and head sacked, and I do the necessaries. Collect my silver. So the target has vanished from the future, and I’ve just disposed of a body that technically does not exist. Clean. Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI3ju17W070 Dialogue on dialogue: This is the first real piece of dialogue in the film (besides Joe practicing his French). The voiceover comes as we see various scenes of Joe finishing up the job, feeling like a necessary explanation to what we've just seen -- a man killed after mysteriously appearing in a field.

Sleepless in Seattle (1993), story by Jeff Arch, screenplay by Nora Ephron, David S. Ward and Jeff Arch JONAH: Hello, this is Jonah— DR. MARCIA FIELDSTONE: No last names, Jonah. You sound younger than our usual callers. How old are you? JONAH: I’m 8. DR. MARCIA FIELDSTONE: Eight? How come you’re up so late? JONAH: It's not that late in Seattle. DR. MARCIA FIELDSTONE: Oh, of course, you’re absolutely right. Alright, what’s your Christmas wish, Jonah? JONAH: It's not for me. It's for my dad. I think he needs a new wife. DR. MARCIA FIELDSTONE: You don't like the one he has now? JONAH: He doesn't have one now. That's the problem. DR. MARCIA FIELDSTONE: Where's your mom? JONAH: She died. Clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ct8rrZgUn8 Dialogue on dialogue: This is the beginning of a pretty long scene where we also find out that it's been a year and a half since Jonah's mom died and Sam hasn't dated since. The info dump aspect is subdued in multiple ways -- playing on emotion, seeing Annie's reactions in the car, and the occasional injection of humor (which comes later).
