No one comes out of a movie talking about structure. What audiences love and remember about a movie are great scenes. Marlon Brando in the back seat in On the Waterfront giving his "I could'a been a contender" speech. Meg Ryan's fake orgasm in Katz's Deli in When Harry Met Sally with the climactic punch line: "I'll have what she's having." In Superbad, Jonah Hill professing "I love you" to his friend Michael Cera by touching his nose with a "boop".

At first the lessons had my undevided attention great points and educational but when the Author refers to non white as people of color, and assumes all color filmmakers have a hidden agenda couldn’t simply ignore it, that echoed throughout the remaining lessons, another closeted racist or still lives in the 50’s? The author doesn’t mention one great colored( his saying) directors that have successfully altered the streamline of moviemaking. Look at the best picture and director winners in the last 10 years.
