At first, I didn't think the Frame Story format was even remotely close to what I was going after, but on further thought I think it is. From what I can see, the Frame Story is nothing more than using flashbacks, but where the flashbacks are the main component of the story. Am I on the right track here?


To put it in movie or cinematic terms, Saving Private Ryan would be a frame story, with the bulk a story told from memory or a flashback. I buess Total Recall would be too, in a way--I never read the short story it was based on, but that might be something to try--I don't know the title, but it could easly be found on the internet and is listed in the credits of the movie.
