00:00:00.458 --> 00:00:04.016
<v Chas>Who wants to do the Do Your Homework announcement?

00:00:04.190 --> 00:00:06.019
<v Mel>I think it'd be ironic if it were Stu.

00:00:07.911 --> 00:00:14.405
<v Stu>Yeah. Okay, I'll do it. In an irony that may or may not be lost on some of you,

00:00:14.405 --> 00:00:19.440
<v Stu>I'm suggesting what homework you should do ahead of listening to Drive Zero,

00:00:19.701 --> 00:00:22.290
<v Stu>not the night of the recording.

00:00:22.464 --> 00:00:25.785
<v Stu>We're going to be talking about back rooms.

00:00:26.745 --> 00:00:32.861
<v Stu>If I had legs, I'd kick you. and Anatomy of a Fall. And we are talking about

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:36.193
<v Stu>negative character arcs in those films.

00:00:36.553 --> 00:00:41.125
<v Stu>And to give you a little bit of a teaser, here are our key insights,

00:00:41.125 --> 00:00:44.185
<v Stu>key flash forward. These are things that we say about it.

00:00:45.017 --> 00:00:45.742
<v Chas>Glorious.

00:00:47.646 --> 00:00:51.553
<v Stu>The question that I didn't ask of these films at the very end,

00:00:51.727 --> 00:00:55.535
<v Stu>but is worth thinking about, is what is the relationship question?

00:00:55.535 --> 00:00:58.651
<v Stu>We've talked about plot questions before, character questions,

00:00:59.110 --> 00:01:03.895
<v Stu>thematic questions but like there is something about what is the relationship

00:01:03.895 --> 00:01:09.005
<v Stu>question and that may help us think about what arc we're meant to be focusing on.

00:01:09.918 --> 00:01:17.345
<v Chas>My key learning from the future is that for a film to feel negative the individual

00:01:17.345 --> 00:01:24.361
<v Chas>character arc being negative is only but one lever you can pull to trigger the emotional reaction.

00:01:24.791 --> 00:01:29.365
<v Mel>My key learning from the future is metaphors and symbolism are your friends.

00:01:32.305 --> 00:01:40.105
<v Stu>We'll see you. So you hear you? No, you'll hear us. Not if we hear you first.
