angles.I very well may be misunderstanding what it takes to make a movie, but that's why I joined this site. I'm a total novice, bro. Whatever you guys say to me is golden.
Pick a recently released movie (I just say this because dialog sequences in earlier movies could often be from one angle or take), and analyze how a dialog sequence works. Look at how many different angles are present. I can assure you the majority of them were filmed by the same camera, at different times. The reason flow and consistency is achieved in these majority of cases is not from multiple cameras, but from skillful editing and good sound (well, and the ability of the crew and production team, but that's a given 😉 ).
This might be irrelevant but, honestly, I'm starting to edit picture first and then add in sound just to make sure the picture is the best it can be, before adding the security blanket of sound.

This sounds like a good idea. I will sit down and watch a movie or two, just to see if I can pick the different camera angles shown. Thanks!
