A dialogue scene is a portion of a screenplay, novel, or other narrative work in which characters converse.
The term emphasizes conversation over action or description: The film's best dialogue scenes happen in the car.
In screenwriting, dialogue scenes are often contrasted with action sequences, and crafting them well is considered a distinct skill.
