		<description><![CDATA[I have been watching Fight Club for my upcoming outline intensive. This movie perfectly exemplifies the extent to which a story comes to powerful life once you’ve identified its underlying battle.

		<description><![CDATA[A Muddied Emotional Point-of-View Robs a Potentially Lyrical Melodrama of Deeper, Universal Meaning

Rachel McAdams toils away in the thankless wings rather than taking her rightful place center stage of the drama.

The Time Traveler’s Wife would have done well to take a cue from its title and actually tell the story from the point of view of the titular character.

It is, after all, her story – devoted Claire is the one who sacrifices her entire life for the sake of a man that can never give her the love she so desperately craves, devoted Claire is the one who clings to the idea of her one true love even as she collapses into a heap of lonely disillusionment, devoted Claire is the one forced to deal with the reality of a life half-lived as her husband roams haphazardly through time.

This is where the meat of the story lies and it’s the only thing resembling a relevant metaphor to human, universal experience: how many of us have held onto a notion of love even after it has outlived its usefulness or redemptive capacity? How many of us have stubbornly lived for fleeting glimpses of grand romance when it otherwise requires us to sort through the muck of a relationship that simply doesn’t work? <a href="http://jamiesteinscripts.com/wordpress/193/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
