I wish to know what exactly a scene is, what the characteristics are, how to accurately tell whether something is a scene or not. The abstract or concept of a scene. I would also like examples if possible, perhaps from Kill Bill Vol. 1 if possible as I have it on hand. Thank you.
I don't know how to explain a scene. I guess it is just a section of the movie/book where one particular event happens. If you want to get an example go read a play like Romeo and Juliette because they clearly show the scenes
Are you talking in terms of screenwriting? Scenes would be determined by wherever you put the scene heading; usually, it's based on location/time changes. Eg. The Bride's fight with the Crazy 88 would be one big scene that's distinguishable to the final duel with O-Ren Ishii. In general conversation it's not so rigid though. What is it that you wanted to gain from asking this question?
