Talk:Midnight's Children (film)

PLOT

--Sarthak Basu (talk) 09:16, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

Altered whole descption from past to present tense, and added a few missing key elements. I was a bit concerned about plot length because of Notice above, but having checked the word-count before and after, I can state it was 968 words (4743 characters) and is now, with the missing key elements added, still just 970 words {4756 characters) - so I'm relieved (and actually surprised) that I've managed it without extending the overall total. It's also worth mentioning Wikipedia's Helppage advice on film plot lengths (at [[1]]), which says "Plot summaries for feature films should be between 400 and 700 words. The summary should not exceed the range unless the film's structure is unconventional, such as with non-linear storylines, or unless the plot is too complicated to summarize in this range." I think the longer-than-usual plot length is justified here on that basis, as the film's plot is most definitely too complicated, with its interweaving of character interactions over long time gaps and spans, too complicated to summarise in the usual recommended 400-700 word range.
