Narrative

The Best Of Me: 

Barthes:

Enigma Code: the enigma code is created when the flashbacks are shown in different scenes, to separate out the flashbacks the use of dimming was used to create suspense, and an enigma code as to why the flashbacks must be shown.

Action Code: The action code is revealed when the conflict between the father and the boyfriend is shown, this creates a story line of the barrier in the relationship between them, and suggesting that it will have action in the film as the conflict is shown very vividly but immediately shown

Todrov:

Disequilibrium is shown by the father in this case as he doesn't want them two to be together and becomes a barrier in their relationship, in the trailer is shows that he wants to get rid of the boyfriend with whatever he can do as he threatens him this is shown by the low angle shots

New equilibrium is shows by the boyfriend who leaves behind everything to keep their relationship going in a good state, and acts very heroic in the trailer. He has lots of high key lighting on him to show hes heroic and making him look glamorous

Propp:

Villain: the father

Princess: the girlfriend

Hero: the boyfriend
