Sammendrag	Auteur Theory Analysis is a critical framework for studying cinema through the lens of directorial authorship, examining how individual directors express consistent themes, visual style, and ideological perspectives across multiple films. Developed by French critics of Cahiers du Cinéma (notably François Truffaut) and articulated in American film criticism by Andrew Sarris, the theory posits that despite the industrial, collaborative nature of film production, the director functions as the primary creative author whose distinctive sensibility can be traced through characteristic patterns of style, technique, and content. The method enables scholarly analysis of directorial influence on cinema and challenges the assumption that mass-produced films lack individual artistic vision.	Film Narrative Analysis is a qualitative method for examining how stories are told through cinematic techniques and structures. Developed from literary narratology and adapted for film studies by scholars like David Bordwell and Mieke Bal, it deconstructs the relationship between story (fabula), plot (sjuzhet), and narration to understand how meaning is created. This method is fundamental to film criticism and provides a systematic framework for analyzing how viewers construct narrative coherence from visual and audio elements.
