There's better writing in this video than anything that's come out of hollywood in a decade. Don't believe me? Let me break it down into a monomyth:
- The heroes lives in comfort. One thief uses his busking skills to lead off the merchant so they can lift some chips.
- The hero is challenged. The comfortable world of an easy snatch and grab is thrown off by an armed robber
- The heroes are forced to confront an unthinkable challenge.
- The hero's darkest hour. The narrative lingers to give the audience a feeling of suspense and dread as the robbers watch and choose to be good guys
- Catharsis! The heroes use a diversionary tactic to knock the armed robber off his feet and to disarm him
- We see the tragic cost of victory. They suceed in grabbing some chips, and their reputation is never the same.
