unreferenced date February 2011 In television and film , a plot point is a significant event within a plot that digs into the action and spins it around in another direction. It can also be an object of significant importance, around which the plot revolves. It can be anything from an event to an item to the discovery of a character or motive. The plot point is usually introduced at the exposition of the movie. Noted screenwriting teacher Syd Field teaches that the ideal movie plot has the first plot point occurring around the 30th minute of the film. Others say that two plot points define the three acts of a movie, and that, if this is a 120 min one, those plot points must be located around the 30th minute and the 90th minute.

The Bandbox Plot of November 4, 1712 was an attempt on the life of Robert Harley, Earl of Oxford , the then British Lord Treasurer , which was foiled by the perspicacity of Jonathan Swift author of Gulliver s Travels , who happened to be visiting the Earl of Oxford. A bandbox was a lightweight hat box this particular one had been configured to fire a number of loaded and cocked pistols on opening, much as a modern day parcel bomb might be arranged to detonate on opening. In this case, the triggers were attached to a thread Swift, perceiving the thread, seized the package and cut the thread thus disarming the device. The attack was laid at the door of the British Whig Party Whig party and threw enormous popular sympathy behind Harley. The event was widely written about in the broadsheets of the time Swift himself wrote about the occurrence in his Letters to Stella http etext.library.adelaide.edu.au s swift jonathan s97s letter55.html .

Refimprove date July 2009 A plot hole , or plothole , is a gap or inconsistency in a storyline that goes against the flow of logic established by the story s Plot narrative plot , or constitutes a blatant omission of relevant information regarding the plot. These include such things as unlikely behaviour or actions of characters, illogical or impossible events, events happening for no apparent reason, or statements events that contradict earlier events in the storyline. While many stories have unanswered questions, unlikely events or chance occurrences, a plot hole is one that is essential to the story s outcome. Plot holes are usually seen as weaknesses or flaws in a story, and writers usually try to avoid them to make their stories seem as realistic as possible. However, certain genre s and some media which require or allow suspension of disbelief are more tolerant of plot holes. Writers can deal with plot holes in different ways, from completely rewriting the story, to having characters acknowledge illogical or unintelligent actions, to having characters make vague statements that could be used to deflect accusations of plot holes e.g. I ve tried everything I can think of... to keep critics from asking why a particular action was not taken . The nature of the plot hole and the developmental stage at which it is noticed usually determine the best course of action to take. For example, a motion picture that has already wrapped production would much more likely receive an added line of dialogue rather than an entire script rewrite.
