Are there any movies where the main character comes naturally into the story to solve a problem ? Like a problem so grave or a situation so dire that the story needs someone to help very badly and then the hero enters the story.
A movie I can think of is the pelican brief. Until Denzel enters the story, julia roberts is in danger and she badly needs a companion to be with her, given her situation.
So in other words, the problem comes first and situation is worsened and then the hero enters. The story has no protagonist until audience feels like the story needs someone to take care of the problem. This is probably a repetitive but it best explains what i am looking for.
