This drawing, produced and copyrighted by Reg Harris http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheHerosJourney, is an expression of Joseph Campbell's understanding of the Hero's Journey. I put it on my website so that my readers and I can refer to it as we encounter and consider stories.
The most recent film that calls out for analysis is Lee Daniels' The Butler. See http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2013/08/15/the_butler_movie_true_story_eugene_allen_vs_cecil_gaines_lee_daniels_fictional.html for comments on how the story came to life.
