wow those are very good explanations of character development cant do much to improve open them.

id like to add on the flip side that sometimes you can go over the top on character development such is the case in one hour photo by Mark Romanek. I loved the premise of the movie the direction was good and i think that the acting was ok. but they focused on the development of robin Williams role too much and the supporting characters were kinda left in the shadow. it built up to this climax and the end was a stupid breakthrough of the character but we knew his unstable nature already so we suspected it and there for wasn’t much of a break through. the movie disappointed me.

on the other hand Mark Romanek did an awesome job on donnie darko he focused on donnie throughout the movie but you also had an idea what the rest of the characters situations were. i just don’t think that drew Barrymore belonged in that movie though but that’s neither here nor there. I just hope that he didnt waste all his good ideas on donnie darko and cant wait for another Mark Romanek film in hopes it will prove he didn’t.
