Equilibrium
The godfather:
Goodfellas starts with no equilibrium it begins with an
anaerobic narrative in which a man gets brutally stabbed by a thug who in which
kidnapped him and put him in his boot. There is a short break after this scene
but soon after the main character creates his own disruption of the equilibrium
as he begins taking part in illegal activity soon after being released from
prison. His finances hit rock bottom and therefore he began dealing cocaine.
There is a recognition of distribution of the equilibrium when the main
character realises that he is being followed by a police helicopter. At the end
of the film there is a new equilibrium in which the ain character is dropped of
all previous charges.
Pulp fiction:
Pulp fiction is another gangster film in which complete
averts todorovs narrative theory of the 5 structured stages of equilibrium.
This is because there is no state of equilibrium at the start of the film and
as a matter of fact there is hardly any moments of equilibrium throughout the
film. A forking path is used throughout the film as there are many smaller
stories giving clues to uncover the main story. Anachronic narrative is also
used as the start is a part of the ending.
