This week we look at narrative structure within film. What are the most common structure types? Why is the three-act structure so pervasive? Does this pervasiveness help or hinder our film-going experience? Which films color outside the lines?

With in-depth discussion of Uncut Gems, Melancholia, After Hours, and 3 Women, and reference to One Cut of the Dead, The Prestige, Pulp Fiction, and more.
