If that isn't a character arc, I don't know what is. It was hard-hitting and stays with the viewer for a long time. <br />This is a great post and I can't think of anything you missed. you covered all the bases as far as I can see.

I need to go there!<br /><br />As for Armageddon, you are totally making me want to watch it again; I don't remember it clearly enough! I will say, though, that I always love when a movie can pull off #2, especially when that group is full of classic, wonderful archetype characters.

Readers are much more unforgiving. Ellie Garratthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03731071128348213067noreply@blogger.com
