character sketch

I wrote that one, and within a year, every character sketch all started with jingles and montage.

A character sketch inspired by a meeting with a Spanish Civil War veteran, “He Went to Paris” is an early example of Buffett marrying vivid imagery with economical storytelling.

Like his earlier “Jackie,” a character sketch of Jacqueline Kennedy told only through the lens of the days after her husband’s assassination, “Spencer” confines its time frame to a single holiday weekend near the end of Diana’s marriage to Prince Charles, and its action to a remote mansion inhabited by both the royalty of the present and the ghosts of the past.

“Aloners” is part character sketch and part cautionary tale, with a fairly predictable point to make about people needing people — even when our neighbors, co-workers, customers and parents are annoyingly demanding.
