A butterfly flapping its wings in South America can affect the weather in Singapore.
- Chaos Theory (paraphrased a bit by me =P)
Loitering around the VCD rental shop today, suddenly thought of one movie mentioned in my Chinese Cinema module that doesn't follow the Aristotelian narrative structure. So I rent the movie and watched it just now.
I was absolutely impressed. If you think Sixth Sense is good, Butterfly Effect is better. Highly recommended if you like story with a very good twist.
PS. Btw a story with Aristotelian narrative structure is simply a story with the following characteristics in order:
- Introduction
- Exposition
- Development
- Conflict
- Climax
- Resolution
Basically it's very very very hard to find a story WITHOUT Aristotelian narrative structure, especially a good one. Watch Butterfly Effect!
