How Films Tell Stories presents a concise introduction to narrative film theory. Part one discusses the basic elements of story -- plot, character, and fictional world -- as applied to cinema. Part two explores how these elements are communicated, examining time manipulation, perspective, cinematography, editing, and sound. Each chapter concludes with questions encouraging readers to produce their own analysis of the narrative strategies of films.
