It's not the easiest story structure moment to recognize, but it's one of the early ones I thought about and tried to notice in movies I watched.

It's been a very tough week (as per usual these past few weeks) and I've been sitting here staring at the blank screen of my computer trying to think of a topic to write about for the newspost.
