Nocturnal Animals: pretty, but no story
Manage episode 431636854 series 3334607
We visit the joys of multiplot stories this week. Valerie discovers (again) the issues with multiplot stories in movies, and I investigate how the different timelines impact the narrative drive. We both learnt what happens to a story when conflict triangles and curiosity and concern are absent - a cautionary tale for writers. -M
“A character can’t un-know something or completely ignore something that is right in front of them.” Melanie Hill.
