Fractal & CinemaScribe
Have you ever considered how a film’s plot can be seen as a kind of fractal, where the same motif repeats at different levels of the story?
Interesting idea, like a story echoing itself in nested loops. The hero’s redemption arc, the broken love, the secret betrayal—those motifs keep folding back on each other, just like a fractal pattern. But watch out: if every layer repeats the exact same twist, it can feel like a tired recursive joke. A good film uses the motif, tweaks it, and gives each recurrence a new shade. That’s the difference between clever structure and an over‑looped theme.
