23. Research about our theme: Young
couples Draft 1
• There are almost 16 million adults aged 16-24 living in the UK of which almost
three in ten (4.6 million) are either married or living with their partner.
• So there is a conflict in needs and readiness when it comes to relationships for
those in that age bracket. Some may marry prematurely because the need for
connection wins out.
• Students who marry while in school may be missing out on some experiences that
would enhance their life experience and maturity.
• In their late teens and early twenties, people are still forming their adult
identities, and are still doing a lot of growing psychologically. It is best to wait to
marry until after about age 27 or so to ensure that this growth curve has begun to
slow down. This reduces the chance that people will later come to realize that they
didn’t really know themselves yet when they got married, as well as feel that they
have grown apart from their partner.

Applying theories of Todorov
• Opening Sequence
– Everything started good- him proposing
– Then, becomes complicated- she sees John with someone else, suspicion
– New equilibrium- for the audience to watch and find out more
• Whole Story
– He proposes to Lily, she moved in with John and started to be over protective
– Lily saw Nevaeh’s text to John and followed him and saw Nevaeh with him
– They broke up because Lily thinks that he’s cheating
– But went back together knowing that Nevaeh is only his close friend

53. Applying the Theories of Propp
• Opening Sequence and Whole Story
– Main character is John as the story revolves around him
– Second character is Lily, because she is the one who will react on the
first and second scenes
– Villain is Nevaeh, because she is the one that will make Lily feel jealous

54. Part P
Applying theories of Strauss
• We didn’t use his theory of Binary Opposition, because there are no
characters that are evil in our Opening Sequence
• There are no good and bad
• All of the characters are equal (no one is stronger than the other)
