Today we’re joined by our friend, the mega-talented and ever-thoughtful Benh Zeitlin, director of Glory at Sea, Beasts of the Southern Wild, and Wendy. We’re thrilled to welcome Benh to the study group as we cross the threshold on pages 31-32, and see Muldrow’s journey plummet into action. From here, we break down act breaks, specifically the crucial transition from Act 1 to Act 2. We discuss the confluence of plot and emotional undercurrents in a story, and how the Coens use structure to build striking and surprising narratives. Thanks again to Benh for joining us on this rollicking river ride.Coens covered: Miller’s Crossing, Fargo, Intolerable Cruelty, A Serious Man.Plus: CommandoIf you're enjoying the study group follow TTWS on social media, tell your friends about it, and leave a rating and review on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
