What makes the Tragedy

What makes the tragedy? Is it all the pain that the characters are put through or is it shear physical pain that the characters must suffer through.  In the middle of a story that needs to grip someone it’s all of the above. Most people think of tragedy when something goes horribly wrong like the holocaust or in the case of the kid, getting locked in a fridge.  The true tragedy in both of the films wasn’t that they had pain in which they did but that everyone turned a blinded eye. In which that the people don’t want anything to help with they all turn their backs on the person that needs the most help or support. Without that element we wouldn’t have such a compelling story though we would have a short story that wouldn’t know what it was. This concludes that in every story you need conflict and you need and you need tragedy to help with the capture of the film without those two critical aspects we won’t have a compiling film with the drive to move forward with the story like in the movie southpaw every time you though he change his life he dug a bigger hole to bury himself in. Which is a tragedy all of it's own.
