Undeserved Misfortune

  Movies really need undeserved misfortune as the viewers need to feel for a character.  Undeserved misfortune must happen for the audience to really connect with the characters.  Undeserved misfortune happens in real life a lot as well.  An example of that in real life is the situation going on in many poor countries.  Children, innocent children, are starving in other countries and they really don't deserve it.  They have a right to a great life and they don't have the same opportunities as others.  Undeserved misfortune can be key in an idea for a film.  An innocent character can be hit with a tragedy of paralysis and can suffer their whole life with it.  They really don't deserve it but it happens to them.
