Abstract :

Cinema, which is the youngest art discipline of our day, has used various narrative structures in its own journey by telling visual stories to the masses. While films were initially made by adopting the classical narrative structure of Aristotle, modern narrative structure was developed in the following years. In cinema which is a mixed discipline, the concept of identification in classical narrative was rejected and the factor of alienation came to the forefront in modern structure. Modern narrative which expects from the audience to question the message given throughout the film accepts the dominance of the director. The emergence of postmodern approach in recent years has caused the growth of a complicated manner in the language of the narrative. Presenting traditional and modern narrative factors in a mixed way through various methods causes disconnection in the fictional structure of the event, time and the protagonist. The concept of intertextuality is accepted as the reading method of postmodern approach and the concept frequently has a place in cinema. Films which refer or cite to each other are seen especially in fantastic genre. These works which copy each other in terms of the content have become frequently referred texts in the cinema of both countries as cartoons, serials or movies.
