The little red riding hood genotype

Terence Patrick Murphy

pp. 144-150

Charles Perrault's version of theLittle Red Riding Hood plot genotype is comparatively short, consisting of just 18 functions, from Departure to Defeat. And yet it is of remarkable interest because it helps to explain a minor cinematic puzzle that will be discussed when we analyze Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (1960).
