Non-linear narrative is when the film does not start at the beginning but in fact starts with a flashback. There is no clear structure as the film manipulates chronology.
Key terms:
- Generic convention: They are the features shown by texts that allow them to be put into a specific genre.
- Audience expectations: These are the advance ideas an audience may have about a text. This particularly applies to genre pieces. Don't forget that producers often play with or deliberately shatter audience expectations.
- Repertoire of elements: These include characters, audience, setting, theme, narrative, iconography and style.
