the other materials which are related to the analysis as secondary data source.
The result of the research show that firstly, the structural elements of movie present a
unity. It appears in the exposition, complication, climax, and resolution of the story. Secondly,
the individual psychological analysis shows the struggle of Ben gates for getting treasure.
