Synopsis
"Murphy's analyses of both the fairy-tale genotypes and the corresponding Hollywood film genotypes are generally well explained, with tables at the culmination of each chapter outlining the progression of functions within the narratives. ... His simple and easy-to-follow prose makes it a suitable text for the novice screenwriter hoping to aid their writing with plot genotypes ... ." (Amy Crockett, Folklore, Vol. 128 (1), March, 2017)
"I would recommend this book to anyone with an interest in folklore, functional analysis, screenwriting, or even a more general interest in the ways in which both fairy-tale and movie plots work. ... The combination of the two takes steps forward in the applicability of Propp's functional analysis for those in the field of folklore and provides a new tool for screenwriters, and it is a stimulating read for story lovers and moviegoers alike." (Kylie Schroeder, Marvels & Tales: Journal of Fairy-Tale Studies, Vol. 31 (1), 2017)
