Abstract (300 words maximum)
I am Legend. (2007) Why is this title even significant? It is about a man who has no future trying to leave behind something great for the sake of everyone else’s future. He is the living legend. The setup is very clear. I am going to explain the plot and why it is so perfectly structured. I will dive into the main theme of perseverance and explain how the main character is built on this. This story also features a unique co-star dynamic (being that the co-star is a dog) which I will go into depth on as well. All of this boils down to a perfectly structured linear story line (with periodic cuts to a linear backstory) in this film.
