Starting with a statement about my core story, I will identify commonalities between these primary works in terms of their core stories, techniques, and perspectives. Part 1 concludes with a scrutiny into the differences between the selected works, followed by alternative viewpoints pertaining to these and their relevance to my screenplay.
Part 2 of this exegesis focuses on my motivations behind this research and an analysis of some significant creative elements that characterize it as a screenplay.
