Tzvetan Todorov narrative theory is
that all narratives follow a structured
plot :
1) Equilibrium
2) Disruption of the equilibrium
3) Recognition of the disruption
4) Attempt to repair the damage
5) New equilibrium
Vladimir's theory was that in every
storyline there was seven main
characters:
1) Donor
2) Helper
3)Princess
4)Hero
5) False Hero
6)Villain
A movie that represents these theories is
‘Batman Begins.’ The hero would be Batman,
the princess would be Rachel, the false hero
is rhaz al ghoul. The helper would be Jim
Gordon, the villain would scarecrow, the
donor would be Lucius Fox.
