description This article is an inquiry into the analysis of textual actuality via the possibilities of plot developments represented in actions and events. The topic of possible worlds is extremely important in narrative theories, particularly in those influenced by such a branch of modern logic as the possible world semantics. Scrutinizing approaches toward the narrative analysis and applying an array of methods to cinematographic piece, this paper circles around linguistics, narrative theories and cinema studies. The article mainly centers on the nature of narrative discourse and ways in which it might be brought down, getting Greimassean narrative grammar, Bremond’s narrative sequences, and Ryan’s classification of textual universes together. The cinematographic masterpiece The Criminal Life of Archibaldo de la Cruze directed by Luis Buñuel is used to apply methods of narrative analysis of three authors. Here lies the actuality of this article and its relevance to the academic studies of narrativity, not to mention non-academic probing into contemporary art: methods of structural and literary possible world analysis of narratives sketched in this paper might 148 be exercised in interpreting not only texts of classical literature along with postmodern writings but also works of popular visual culture, such as cinema.
