Following the plot outline discussed in the text that sets forth the ten main structural units of the film, discuss the structure of the story of Citizen Kane. Now see if you can fit these structural units into Syd Field’s or Frank Daniel’s story
structure paradigms.
Diagram the plot units of Citizen Kane and explain why the director chose to use the flashback structure in the film.
Consider:
? Is there an exposition section of the film (per Field)? What about rising action? Climax? Resolution?
? Is Daniel’s method more flexible with respect to analyzing the structure of Kane?
? How do the flashbacks affect the structure, if at all?
? Is a linear chronology critical to a classical paradigm story structure? Why or why not?
