THE 4 STAGES OF PLOT DEVELOPMENT




Plot 1 is where we meet Jones for the first time when he is looking for this
artifact. He finds it but then he encounters one of the bad guys and he
takes the artifact from Jones. As the movie goes on Jones is called into the
gym to talk to some men from the government. They talk about the Ark of
the Covent and ask Jones if he can find it before the Nazi’s do. Know we
now that Jones must find the Ark before the Nazi’s do.
Plot 2 Rising Action: Is the were the character has to jump over these
postictal. For example Jones has to save Marion many times from the Nazi’s.
Plot 3 Climax: I believe is when the Nazi’s open up the Ark
Plot 4 Ending: They give the Ark to the government and he says, “they don’t
know what they have.” He doesn’t get the Ark but he gets the girl. They
don’t really give us a hint that there will be a another movie.
BEGINNING

In the beginning of the movie we are introduced to two
main characters, Indiana Jones and Belloq. We know
that this guy is the evil villain in the movie. He takes
the golden statue from Jones. A big thing they also
showed was he had this evil laugh. We continued to
hear it as Jones was running from the Natives. We
also get the goal that Jones has to do which is to get
the Ark before the Nazi’s do.
MIDDLE

In the middle of the movie Jones is trying to get the
Ark and on his way he meets Marion an old friend. She
helps him try to find the Ark. We also see a lot of
things that get into Jones way in retrieving the Ark.
ENDING

Jones and Marion are captured and they are tied up.
The Nazi’s have the Ark and are going to open it.
Jones and Marion are in the back and Jones tells
Marion to shut her eyes. Jones told us that the Ark had
the rath of God in it. They open the Ark and these
sprits come out to everyone who had their eyes open.
We also see this beam of light come out of the Ark
and kill everyone. So then they are free and they take
the Ark back to the US.
DANGLING CAUSE

Can be lines, images, sounds, or characters that are
shown to the audience that later come true. We can
see it or hear it when Jones talks about the Ark for the
first time in the gym. The Arks theme song plays and
the camera zooms in on Jones’s face.
DANGLING CAUSE 1

In the begging of the movie Jones is running from the
natives and he gets into the plane. But there is a
snack in the seat and he starts to freak out. We know
that Jones does not like snacks.
DANGLING CAUSE 2

When Jones goes to the bar to find Marion they get
into a fight and he leaves. When he leaves she pulls
out the madalen and looks a it. The camera stayed on
it for a while so we know that object must be
important later on.
DANGLING CAUSE 3

Jones was with Sully and they went to go find
out what was written on the Madalen. A young
severest gets some tarts, I'm not share what it
was called. He goes and finds a try but then
someone posines them. The camera stays on
them for a minute. Later on Jones is about to
eat it when Sally stops him because he saw the
monkey was dead by the tarts.

audience that are important or help us.

over and over again.
