Yes, you need dialogue between characters. However, whenever there is a silent scene or a scene where a character is alone, you can keep it alive by using mental dialogue to describe some of what is happening. It keeps you from doing the one thing that Stephen King ever did "wrong" (I use the term loosely), which is overdescribe everything.
