In this trailer I have chosen there is a open structure in which the audience are left wondering about the conclusion of the movie. I have also looked at Propps theory and easily identified the roles of the characters for example the main character played by Denzel Washington is the Hero.
The Narrative of the story start off with an equalibrium, as everything is normal and seems happy, you get this feeling form the Non diagetic music used in the firsts moments of the trailer. And then something disturbes the equalibrium for example the plane crash and the court case.
By using Roland Barthes's Theory helps us understand the storyline behind the trailer by using his five codes and conventions, Barthes's five codes are:
Action - Resolution provided by action for example fight scene.
Enigma - Teases the audience.
Symbolic - connotation.
Semic - Denotation.
Culture - Narrative being a part of a culture for example Goodfellas is a movie based on the cultre of made men in the mafia.
