Great article on dialogue. The advice, imo, also works for novels. dialogue should serve four basic functions: move the storyline forward, reveal aspects of character not otherwise seen, present exposition and particulars of past events, and set the tone for the film. I have a very similar, but book focused set of these commandments pinned to my whiteboard next to my desk - always find it brings focus if I start to let my characters speech meander.
