Please turn in your homework for "Lila the Werewolf" (see previous post for details). After our writing prompts, we will view a few videos about our subject.
Last class we talked about the heroes' journey. Today, we will examine that archetype in the film Legend (1985) by director Ridley Scott.
To recap, the heroes journey looks like this:
1. Status quo/call to adventure
2. Assistance
3. Departure
4. Trials
5. Approach
6. Crisis
7. Treasure
8. Result
9. Return
10. New Life
11. Resolution
12. Status quo
All heroes journeys start off in the "normal" world and move through a "special" world. While not all authors will use the heroes journey in the same way, usually, it can be argued, that most stories follow some of the major plot points pretty closely.
