Principles of narrative form: we assume that there will be characters and that the actions they take will involve them with one another. Films to shape our expectations by summoning up curiosity, suspense, surprise, and other emotional qualities the ending of the film may also activate memory by queuing the spectator to review earlier events. What is a narrative: we can consider a narrative to be a chain of events linked by cause-and-effect and occurring in time and space. Plot and story: the plot guides the viewer and building up a sense of all relevant events, both the ones explicitly presented and those that must be inferred. Along with the body, character has traits: attitudes, skills, habits, tastes, psychological drives, and other qualities that distinguish him or her. Hiding causes and effects: consider a mistry story.
