The Woman King: when storylines compete

Story Nerd

Creating multiple storylines is a popular approach for novelists and for writers who know what they're doing, the end result is nothing short of masterful. However, multiple storylines is an advanced writing technique and it can quickly and easily go off the rails. Unfortunately, that's what happened with The Woman King. Now, there's lots to admire about this film too, but there's also lots to learn about creating multiple plot lines and what can happen to a story when they're poorly executed.

(Valerie's puppy Luca has opinions on it too, as you'll hear ... apologies for that!)
