Modern cinema is chock full of Hero's Journeys. Today I cover 3 of my favorites, each more interesting and sophisticated than the last. We will actually see three variants on the Hero's Journey, with different details that we can relate to. This episode is not evidence that the Hero's Journey is bubbling up without the conscious attention of the screenwriters or directors, but instead my hope is that you will be able to engage with story and myth in a new, more powerful way.
Movies include:
The Star Wars Trilogy (Episodes IV, V, VI)
Mad Max: Fury Road
Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga
