Film acts

Film acts are the major sections of a movie’s story, typically divided into three parts: the beginning (setup), middle (confrontation or development), and end (resolution). Act 1 introduces characters and the main situation; Act 2 develops conflicts and challenges; Act 3 resolves the story’s conflicts and concludes the story arc. This structure helps create suspense, emotional engagement, and a satisfying narrative flow. The acts are connected by plot points that move the story forward, ensuring a cohesive and compelling viewing experience.
