Author: Marilyn Horowitz
Instead of trudging through the 3 acts with a saggy middle, she proposes breaking the 2nd act in two and splitting the screenplay into four sections, each corresponding with a question:
What is the main character's dream?
What is the main character's nightmare?
Who or what would they 'die' for?
What is the resolution of the dream or a new dream?
She analyzes the movie Witness in ten minute increments to support this.
