Abstract

Literary works are built from the harmony of intrinsic elements such as theme, plot, characterization, setting, point of view, style, and mandate. Plot is one of the crucial elements in a story which can combine all the elements in a story to become harmonious. From the plot, we can know the events of the character’s characteristics and the conflicts faced by the story. It can clearly describe the storyline that wants to create by the writer. Pulang by Leila S Chudori is one of the novels that have a unique plot which is created from the letter’s media. The new way of conveying the plot is called novelty.  The novelty is created for avoiding monotony in a story. Every stage of plot such as exposition, inciting moment, rising action, conflict/climax, falling action and denonement can be made to make a surprise so that the reader feels interested and curious about the next stage of plot. This is what Leila does to build her plot more interesting and unique. Leila in Pulang uses a regressive plot because the sequence of events told in fiction is not chronological, the story starts from the middle stage when Dimas Suryo is already in Paris. Besides the letter media that Leila uses in the story, she also used novelty for the renewal of the written media based on the developments of electronic media from 1965-1998. Through this kind of novelty, Leila succeeds in getting the reader to be influenced by Indonesia’s dark history which is written from a different perspective.

This study employs ecranisation theory by Eneste (1991) to analyze the transformation from novel into Film If Beale Street Could Talk. Descriptive qualitative data analysis was employed in this study.

The study sought to investigate how the movie deals with disability difficulties while presenting the ideal romance formula. The study also discovered that the Forrest Gump movie adheres to Janice Radway's ideal romance formula while adapting it to the disability setting. The individuals' personalities are given more depth by this extra complexity, which also advances the story as a whole. The Forrest Gump movie accurately, tenderly, and meaningfully shows romantic connections between individuals with impairments, according to the study. Forrest's intellectual impairment isn't the main focus of his persona; rather, it's only one facet of who he is. The movie demonstrates that Forrest is a loving, kind, and sympathetic individual who is able to develop lasting connections despite his impairment. Jenny's reaction to Forrest's impairment is honestly portrayed in the movie, and she first has second thoughts about dating him. She comes to see, nevertheless, that Forrest's impairment is only one aspect of him and does not characterize him as a person as their relationship progresses.
