When I was in film school, 1978 to 81, I had a screenwriting instructor who complimented me on my dialogue, saying to me “You have a good ear for dialogue”.

THAT is the skill that you need to hone in order to write good dialogue.

Dramatic Dialogue is not an interview. It is not a question-and-answer for pages upon pages, where the audience will lose interest or worse, not recommend your material to anyone else for lack of it going anywhere.

How do you write any dialogue, then? Listen to people talking to one another. Hear what they are saying to one another, and also listen for what they are saying but not using real words but overtones of meanings. Next time you are at a restaurant eavesdrop on people’s conversations. Don’t be obvious about it, because people hate that, but do listen closely. Make mental notes - avoid taking down real notes in case you are noticed since that can cause you all manner of problems. When you are off on your own, then you can jot down notes while things are still fresh. You do not need to transcribe what you listened to but just pick apart the flavor of what was being said, and how it was said.

Two friends discussing their studies is a little shallow to answer properly. I don’t know what they are studying, and what level each has as their frame of reference for their mutual topic. Once you know what the subject matter is, you will notice that much of what being said is a commentary on the topic. The number of questions and answers you will discover will be minimal, if not non-existent.

Remember, the conversation about anything is directly based upon the information, or misinformation, possessed by one or both people involved. When approached in this way, the conversation can be ludicrous and funny, or it could be infuriating and inciting of the worst feeling. The exchange can also be extremely profound and enlightening. The odds, however, will be the fact that is it not a question and answer session.

Think of this, in real life…

A guy in a bar to a girl — “Are you here alone? I couldn’t help but notice you are here alone. I know you, don’t I? Haven’t I seen you here before!”

Really? How about — “I was just about to leave, but I did not want to take the chance that I would never see you here again. I would like to get to know you.”

Now, as pick up lines go, both are wanting, but the second one does not have a single question in it. It is imperative and may divine more interested from the lady, than what seems to be a job interview with the first example.

Your conversation between schoolmates discussing studies would be much the same way. Questions will be asked only as a clarification to the subject matter. Otherwise, most of the dialogue will be a commentary.
