碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 廣告學系 === 106 === This is the creative analysis of a 90-minute feature screenplay, “The Perfect Family.” It belongs to the psychologic thriller genre. The story starts from a seemingly happy family, envied by other people. However, each family member has his/her own unspeakable secrets. By intercutting between reality and flashbacks, all truth will reveal themselves. This family is actually a microcosm of the society, in which everyone is struggling with self-identity and worldly ideal values, and the deadly pursuit of perfection. It aims to expose the dark side of society that we tend to ignore and repress, and the truth that has been distorted all the time. The narrative structure is based on screenplay theories proposed by Syd Field, Robert McKee, and Blake Snyder, among others. Screenplay proposal and complete dialogue script are included here. Six professional screenplay writers and five thriller loving audiences are invited to examine this screenplay. They give suggestions on narrative structure, characterization, and plot design from different angles. Their opinions are gathered and responded at the end for further improvement and future shooting suggestions.
