Equilibrium/Todorov
Proppian character: Ethan ‘the hero’
Equilibrium: The begging scene were the agent contacts Benji.
Disruption : in the scene where the doors of the plane close
and it begins to take off.
New equilibrium: When Ethan is discovered and the doors open
and then he is ejected from the plane, it is a new balance because the mission
is completed.
In media res: the first scene would actually be
disequilibrium because the imbalance has already occurred (but since I'm
analyzing that specific scene then it would be equilibrium compared to the
later scenes)
Multi perspective narratives: The characters are involved in
the event in real time but from different perspectives and communicate through
networks (waquie talkie/communicators). All the characters have their function
and do their tasks differently.
The purpose of the extract is to show through missions,
action and challenges how the 'hero and his helpers' resolve the conflict
caused by the villain. Ethan with the help of Benji and the entire team manages
to access the plane and get the packages off the plane. The hero and his
assistants resolve the conflict.
