Props theory

I believe that props theroy is not fully reliable i think that the majority of the structures he has put in to the theory are right, they fit in with the horror genre how ever i think they are muddled up for example in the preperation section i don't believe that the 'villian finds something about the victum' at the start of the film because in most horrors the villian does not know the victum or in this case in 'The shinning' he already knew everything about wendy therefore he did not find any weaknesses. However i do agree with the character listings and think that there can be more than one charscter for each role. for example in 'The shining' hallorann can be seen as the hero, the false hero and the doner.
over all i agree with what he is trying to do and i do believe it helps because it makes you think of certain aspects in more detail.
