NOTES:
- Showing vulnerability is key for the audience to connect to the character. Is usually done when the character is first introduced
- Power Struggle - when being vulnerable, the character must be shown to not have "status" in the scene
CHARACTER EXAMPLES:
- The Wife in Rashomon; she is a powerless character who isn't shown to do any redeeming action throughout the film, but we sympathize with her because she was raped
- Joel from The Last of Us; Screws over humanity to find a cure in order to save a girl for his own selfish needs (who didn't want to be saved), but we sympathize because he was shown as a vulnerable father who lost his daughter at the beginning of the story
