Without story


Is a story needed to make a short unforgotten and for it to be rewatchable? This short has no story and can you watch it more than once? No, not really. Nothing really happens that makes you want to watch it again and again. So why do good stories make you want to watch them over and over again and again. There are many movies out there that have great story like The Sound of Music. Why is this movie great? This movie has breath taking scenery, and the voice of Julie Andrews. Also you create great empathy for the character Maria, and the children.  This Story also has many plot points throughout the movie and keeps you sucked in till the very end. Many people say that you have to create something new to make it stand out, but in this time there is not a lot that has not been done before whether it is in shorts, feature films or TV shows. I feel that you can revamp an old story as long as you can change it up a little in the style and give it a new twist, but the theme behind the story can be the same. This is what a lot of Disney films have done and they do it very well. Could this short have been better if it had a memorable storyline that created empathy for the character or object and good plot points?
