The powerful force in Forest Gump is Forest himself. The conflict comes from modern society trying to fit him in or destroy him, but his innocence, strong sense of what is right, and passiveness (in most cases) let the universe carry him through and above it all. It not unlike the "Being There" story.
I appreciate what this channel does, and the people who take their time to be interviewed and share with all of us. Very insightful, helpful, and fun to watch.
I enjoy Ms. Beaty's interviews especially her delivery style and understand that she's gathered knowledge from professional development experience, but where did Ms. Beaty learn screenwriting?
I think some of the internal conflict comes from Forest’s struggle to know he isn’t defective. “I’m not a smart man, Jennie”. And later to Jennie when he sees his son, “Is he smart?”
I have enjoyed this. But it just occurred to me that I learned this in 9th grade English class in a public school in TN. And yet some of the writers in Hollywood still can’t do this. And they have matriculated from the Ivy Leagues. I walked away from this video a bit boggled at that thought.
Hi Good topic was discussed Yes, conflict keeps the film interesting Goal difference leads to conflict Difference in Approach to goal leads to conflict All conflicts should have relevance to the goals. Conflicts can emanate from nature or man made Thus, film journey needs to carry balanced conflicts in different Acts Thanks again Film courage to have brought out yet another useful topic in interview form

We appreciate you back Eidolon1andOnly! Thanks for watching!
Naomi thank you for this lesson. I loved it.
Love the knowledge this channel always gives us creators
Naomi Beaty developed Twilight for film. So next level storytelling there.
In what way? She's not listed as a screenwriter

Thank you. This is what ppl would look for based on video’s title
Very useful. We record RPG's and while they are improv based vids such as these are still very useful.
i have learned so much aboutwriting.

Forrest Gump is the change, helping others through their conflict.
Hi
Good topic was discussed
Yes, conflict keeps the film interesting
Goal difference leads to conflict
Difference in Approach to goal leads to conflict
All conflicts should have relevance to the goals.
Conflicts can emanate from nature or man made
Thus, film journey needs to carry balanced conflicts in different Acts
Thanks again Film courage to have brought out yet another useful topic in interview form
Thank you for this wonderful simplified breakdown 🎉❤
4 types?
Forest Gump is for me Sullivan's journeys
The path is the goal
Film Courage thank you
Forest Gump: the conflict was between our expectations and his remarkable reality. Plus, many small conflicts along the way.
❤❤
Amen *****###
Lmao are they really praising Crash (2004)? Maybe the shittiest Oscar winner in the history of film?
Was just thinking about this movie. Not in this negative way though... Going to watch it again... maybe you should watch it again too.
too much
