Longing for a King (2 of 10)
Series: Thy Kingdom Come
Cal Jernigan
1 Samuel 8
Big Idea: In every story worth telling, there's a story before the story worth knowing.

(3) Big Idea: In every story worth telling, there's a story before the story worth knowing.
2) Back To the Movies!

iii) At the end of the movie, the plot is resolved (usually).
b) There is a kind of cinematography that shows you the conclusion of the plot, then goes backwards in time and breaks down to explain to you how you got there.

ii) Some examples:
(1) Citizen Kane begins with a newsreel about the protagonist's death
(2) Fight Club begins with the narrator ready to take his life
iii) The important question is HOW DID WE GET HERE?
c) Other movies are made in the plot development mode (normal way), but they're so good you just have to know more
i) Sometimes they follow the movie with a SEQUEL, or two
ii) If it's a really good story, they can come out with a PREQUEL
d) Examples of prequels...
i) The Lord of the Rings trilogy was followed by ''The Hobbit''
ii) The movie Wicked explains how the Wicked Witch in The Wizard of Oz became wicked.
iii) Star Wars (This concept on steroids)
(1) You first have a movie... and then two sequels (technically this is a trilogy)
(a) A New Hope
(b) The Empire Strikes Back (seq ...
