Without the elements mentioned,
a 'good' film wouldn't be
asthetically pleasing.
A good film doesn't necessarily
need to be good in terms of
narrative, but instead all one
really needs is a good idea and a
camera then to shoot the idea.
But, of course, knowing how to
build up the story line in the
idea. This would make the
narrative a lot better.
