The Hero's Journey (Monomyth) is the template upon which the vast majority of successful stories and Hollywood blockbusters are based upon. In fact, ALL of the hundreds of Hollywood movies we have deconstructed (see URL below) are based on this 188+ stage template.

Understanding this template is a priority for story or screenwriters. This is the template you must master if you are to succeed in the craft.

[The terminology is most often metaphoric and applies to all successful stories and screenplays, from The Godfather (1972) to Brokeback Mountain (2006) to Annie Hall (1977) to Lord of the Rings (2003) to Drugstore Cowboy (1989) to Thelma and Louise (1991) to Apocaplyse Now (1979)].

There Is Only One Story

The Hero's Journey:

a) Attempts to tap into unconscious expectations the audience has regarding what a story is and how it should be told.

b) Gives the writer more structural elements than simply three or four acts, plot points, mid point and so on.

c) Gives you a tangible process for building and releasing dissonance (establishing and achieving catharses, of which there are usually four).

Abridged Tips And Examples:

*****Foreshadow of the Journey*****

Before the actual Push out of the Ordinary World, a Foreshadow is not uncommon. In Bonnie and Clyde (1967), Clyde asks, "What do you all do for a good time around here."

*****Conquest of the Romantic Challenge*****

The conquest of the Romantic Challenge is the Hero's Reward (post the Rebirth through Death). This is what is commonly referred to as the Mystical Marriage.

Rewards are referenced. In Dances with Wolves (1990), Kicking Bird's wife brings up the topic of John's relationship with Stands with a Fist.

Sex. The boy gets the girl, of course.
