How to distinguish the linearity and nonlinearity of film narrative structure

1。 Traditional linear narrative. Example: Many Jurassic parks don't give examples.

2。 Multiple linear narrative. The film consists of many short stories, one of which connects other stories in a period of time. Example: crash, spicy love soup.

3。 Recall narration. Examples: Titanic, Big Fish and Citizen Kane.

4。 Circular structure narration. Example: Shanghai Dawn and Pulp Fiction.

5。 Flashback linear narrative. (according to the narrative of abnormal time)

Exodus: There are few such films, let alone none in China. There was a movie in France in 2004, which was quite wonderful. "5: 3: 2" begins with the divorce of the protagonist and his wife; Contradictions in family life are the second section; Marriage is the climax; The acquaintance is over. I suggest you have a look.

6。 Random linear narrative. There is no logic in the whole movie. It can be said that all the fragments, plots and characters are confused, making people unable to know the past and the future, so they can only follow the movie repeatedly by their own memories. Example: 2 1 gram, lost wall and our music.

7。 Repetitive linear narrative. The whole movie will have a repeated point in time, and every story will start again from this point in time. For example: Run Lola, Love is a Bitch, Rashomon and Hero.
