c) Gives you a tangible process for building and releasing dissonance (establishing and achieving catharses, of which there are usually four).
d) Gives you a universal structural template upon which you can superimpose your situational story. This is why stories such as Alien (1979), Gladiator (2000), Midnight Cowboy (1969), American Beauty (1999), The Graduate (1967) and many others (all deconstructed at the URL below) appear to be different but are all constructed, almost sequence by sequence, in the same way.

In The Matrix (1999), the world of the machines is nowhere like Neo's normal World. In Goodfellas (1990), the World of the gangsters is the polar opposite of both Henry's and Karen's parent's World. In Dances with Wolves (1990), Fort Hayes is quiet and uninhabited. John Dunb

Only you can provide what other p

In this world there are people that become very successful, and then there are people that never achieve what they really want in life. Why does this happen?

People are so wary of online credit fraud—and for good reason—that they don’t even shop online. Some people, and you probably know some of them, resolve themselves to shopping by phone or through

In The Last King of Scotland (2006), Uganda and Ugandans are totally new to Nicholas.
*****Transmogrification*****
Every good Hero is wounded as he begins his (or her) Journey. As that wound heals, so it represents the Hero's Transformation and Transmogrification from an Ordinary Self to a New Self.
