To the Editor:Re “How Intimacy in Movie Dialogue Goes a Long Way” (Arts pages, Dec. 24):I miss Nora Ephron, too. The New Yorker this month ran an archived article of hers , and now you have a column about movie dialogue praising how precisely Nora got it right for romantic comedies, both the romance and the comedy. I’m sure I’m not the only one missing her funny, smart, ironic, grounded voice. I, too, have my favorite Nora quotes, this one from “Heartburn” — her description of the underexplored topic of the “Jewish prince,” whose hallmark phrase is “Where’s the butter ?” Oh, Nora, what would you have written about these last two tumultuous years?
