In Arch Plot, Mini-Plot, and Classical Design stories if your primary POV character learns or gains something, the audience should be oriented about what they’ve acquired.
Our lead character acquires important knowledge on how to succeed, or obtains an important object, but the audience doesn’t get to hear that knowledge or see that object.
Keeping that knowledge a mystery works because Trinity isn’t our main perspective character in the story, Neo is.
I read amateur scripts like this all the time.
The actual goal is to convince Kujan he’s innocent in order to escape police custody and ensure freedom because he IS the murderer.
The reality of what their goal is, the reality of their motivation… is the twist.
They don't understand that we have to understand a goal and motivation in order to feel something when they're revealed to be a lie.
But when people DM me it's never about producing no-budget movies. It's always #screenwriting questions. So I figure this is the value and insight people are looking for from me given my experience.
