In a regular text-based course, teachers and students have a book or an article to which they can refer. But rarely do people have a film script in front of them (and sometimes the printed scripts if available are not the same as the final film version anyway). Yet there are important sections of monologue or dialogue in a film that will naturally play key roles in the study of the films and will be referred to over and over in any analysis that teachers and students might do, either in class discussion or in written projects. There is a need, then, to have an accurate transcript of these key parts, so that people don't have to spend time not only finding the sections in the film but, in some cases, engaging in the slow process of listening a few times to transcribe them. Your job is to judge what the key script parts are and to transcribe them exactly with time markings. Some films will have a few, some perhaps many.

• list the quotes in time order from beginning of the film
• if you have a printed script, it may not be the actual version used in the film; always go by the film itself
• for printed scripts, Google the film title + script or screenplay, or see

• be scrupulous about getting the exact language
• if you are using a DVD or video with subtitles use them but always check for accuracy because the subtitles are often shortened
• if subtitles are not available, listen and re-listen for accuracy, supply capitalization, spacing, punctuation, paragraphing, name tags, and so forth as needed: use your best judgment
• give the time that the passage begins and a short, descriptive title of your own for each passage, just as you did for the scene logs
• if you have a silent film, some of the "cards" might be appropriate to quote

Examples:

0:06:19 Father-Son Bonding, in the woods

Duke Purdy: Listen here. Don't want you around that colored boy no more.

Emmet Purdy: Arnett?

Duke Purdy: Don't look right, my boy trailing around after a nigger.

0:59:25 Mr. Mann's Departure

Mr. Wright: This what they teach you in the Army? Pack up and run when things get hot? Thank God the Navy don't let in--

Mr. Mann: What? Go on and say it, Mr. Wright... Thank God the Navy don't let in niggers.

Mr. Wright: I was going to say cowards.

0:59:46 Mr. Mann's Departure

Mr. Wright: That's right. I got you figured, Mann. You one of them loud boys, big talk. Figure you can say anything to a white man ... as long as you start out saying "With all due respect." First sign of trouble, you duckin' your head running.

Sylvester: Now, I was born and raised in Rosewood. This here is my home. And I'll be damned if I let anybody run me off it.
