3.角色
The main character is the most important character in a film, and the character of greatest interest. Usually the main character is also the “protagonist”, the character whose actions trigger the chain of causes and effects that drive the plot forward.
主要角色是电影中最重要的角色，也是最具吸引力的角色。主要人物通常就是主角，其行动引起的原因，产生的影响推动着情节的发展。
Secondary characters are those who interact with the protagonist and have significant impact on the development of the narrative. They can often be divided into three main functions: the opposition character, the mirror character, and the romance character.
次要人物与主角交互，影响着叙事的发展。它们通常可以分为三个主要功能：反派角色，镜像角色和浪漫角色。
The mirror character also known as the “support”is the character most clearly aligned with, and supportive of the protagonist. Mirror characters offer support to the protagonist through the difficulties he encounters, often because they share with him certain beliefs and attitudes. They have important dramatic function of engaging in regular dialogue with the protagonist, helping him to formulate his goals and at the same
time helping the audience to better understand the protagonist’s character and situation.
性格最明确，且赞同和支持主角的角色称为镜像角色。镜像角色帮助主角度过难关，往往是因为他们与主角分享他们的某些信念和态度。他们有着重要的戏剧功能，定期对话主角，帮助主角制定目标，同时帮助观众更好地了解主角的性格和处境。
4.叙述
Narrative refers to the way that a story is told. It is principally concerned with the way that events are organized in time and space –the way in which the scriptwriter and director take the raw elements of a story and arrange them in the most attractive and interesting way.
Narrative–a chain of events in cause-effect relationships occurring in time and space. 叙述是指讲述一个故事的方式。它主要关注的是事件在时间和空间上的组织方式- 编剧和导演以最有吸引力和最有趣的方式安排故事的原始元素。
叙述——在时间和空间上发生的一连串事件的因果关系。
5.九大故事
Achilles, Candide, Cinderella, Circe, Faust, Orpheus, Romeo and Juliet, Tristan, and the Wandering Jew.
阿喀琉斯（跟腱），老实人，灰姑娘，塞丝，“浮士德”，奥菲斯，“罗密欧与朱丽叶”，特里斯坦，流浪的犹太人。
6.主题
Stated simply, the theme of a film is its main point; it is what the scriptwriter and director want to tell us. In more precise terms, theme is the controlling idea of the film.
In addition to constituting a general comment about life, the theme is also the central and controlling idea. It is that center of gravity around which all the other elements of the film (genre, character, narrative, style) imperceptibly revolve. It would be wrong to assume that there is only one theme in every film. It is quite possible that scriptwriter/director has intentionally allowed for the coexistence of more than one theme.
简单说来，一部电影的主题是其主要的点，它是编剧和导演想告诉我们的东西。更精确的讲，主题是电影的控制思想。
除了构成一个关于生活的总体评价，主题也是中央和控制思想。它是重心，围绕这部电影的所有其他元素（流派，人物，叙事，风格）不知不觉地转换。假设一部电影只有一个主题这是错误的。这很可能是编剧/导演有意允许多个主题共存。
