What is Story?


  • All of the events of protagonist/s' lives in chronological order



  •  Thriller films may re-order the story in order to engage the spectator in an active relationship with the text 
  • Creating some confusion like this or raising questions are important 
  • thriller techniques - to keep us on the edge of our seats, and to keep us 

    • This is the creation of AN ENIGMA CODE (Theory from the literary 
    • theorist Roland Barthes). See your handout for more information on 
    • Barthes' theory of Enigma and Action Codes.
