Scott, I took your UCLA "Protag's Arc" workshop this fall and loved it. Not in a million years would I ever think to apply your Disunity/Unity arc to Wizard of Oz but it actually seems like a great case study, so thanks for throwing that tidbit into this post.
What about films with a psychological bent, like A Beautiful Mind where the mental illness is the antagonist, or this year's Moon? Is Moon along the same lines as Castaway?
