Watching for Character Arcs

If you’re watching these movies as a practice in building character arcs, ask yourself
these questions as you watch:

1. What is the character’s problem? Remember it’s about their personality or feelings,
not any external situation.
2. What change either forces them to face their fears and doubts, or gives them an
opportunity to pursue their dreams?
3. What steps do they take to solve their problem?
4. What final test are they given? Do they make a sacrifice?
5. Do they fail or succeed? What are the consequences?
