Answer to Question 2

Some of the basic questions that we ask ourselves while analyzing a film's
narrative structure are:
1. Who's telling the story? A voice-over narrator? Why him or her? Or does the story
tell itself, like most stage plays? 2. Who is the implied narrator of such stories, the
guiding hand in the arrangement of the narrative's separate parts? 3. What do we as
spectators supply to the story? What information do we provide in order to fill in the
narrative's gaps? 4. How is time presentedchronologi cally or subjectively rearranged
through flashbacks and other narrative disjunctions? 5. Is the narrative realistic, classical,
or formalistic? 6. What genre, if any? What phase of the genre's evolution? 7. What does
the movie say about the social context and period that it was made in? 8. How does the
narrative embody mythical concepts or universal human traits?
