The Importance of the Midpoint in Storytelling
In this chapter, they discuss the importance of the midpoint in a movie script and how it is equally applicable to novels, dramas, non-fiction, and even children's books. They give examples from movies like The Godfather and Dances with Wolves to explain how the midpoint is a turning point for the hero where they choose a side. The stakes of the story also go way up at the midpoint.
