8 Notable Comparisons Between Breaking Bad And Scarface

5. Memorable Dialogue

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMEq1mGpP5A Apart from the obvious visceral attraction of Scarface and Breaking Bad, both also include fantastic, memorable parts of dialogue that live long in the memory after and serve to encapsulate the character's mindsets and opinions. Walt's "I am the one who knocks" monologue is one of the most unforgettable lines of dialogue throughout the series, illustrating Walt's reversal from school teacher into being the one who knocks on people's doors to deliver their end. As Skylar reaches out to Walt, still seeing the vulnerable school teacher she was once married to, she assumes that Walt is in danger but rather as Walt puts it, he is the "danger" and is the head of a business that is big enough to be "listed on the NASDAQ" that would crumble without his input. This memorable scene encapsulates the whole objective of the show, as seemingly within minutes Walt has gone from being "in danger" to being "the one who knocks." Other lines of dialogue such as when Walt commands a drug dealer to "say my name" and when Gus Fring threatens Walt: "If you try to interfere, this becomes a much simpler matter. I will kill your wife. I will kill your son. I will kill your infant daughter" are other great examples of the striking dialogue used in the show. Perhaps not as silver tongued and eloquent as Walt, Tony Montana still has many memorable lines of exchange throughout the movie. For example, when he is sitting in the car with Manny, and he declares that he "wants the world and everything in it" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wR2rDYUw3CU Of course, Tony's most enduring line of dialogue in the film is in the final scene when he screams in a seething rage, "Say hello to my little friend!" and also when he announces that "I always tells the truth, even when I lie". All of these lines display how Tony is an ambitious, loud mouthed character, hell bent on achieving his goals.
