is that if anyone has watched, or watches the movie ‘Eye in the Sky’, would they please explain which of the seven plots (that cover every story ever written), it fits into?
If we must ram it into the 7 plots, I would suggest Tragedy because of the way Powell's plan --er -- blows up
It doesn't have to fit into "one" original plot as most stories employ elements of more than one to include sub-plots. But merely bringing in various combinations of plots doesn't make it any more "original." The googolplex plus of ways to present the same plot - whichever you pick and whatever number you assign to the stack of original plots (one, eleven, twenty-two, ?) - is what makes the difference. Take a hypothetical "boy meets girl" plot (included in some lists of plots) and you can have many billions of combinations just dealing with the living without ever going into the realm of imagination or fantasy. A similar incalculable variety could be presented within the parameters of any original plot chosen. It doesn't change the basic plot, only the portrayal. Take care. Vern
