I recommend the audiobook "The Hero with a Thousand Faces" by Joseph Campbell as its the book that inspired George Lucas when he was writing the original Star Wars.

In this video I examine some of the flaws and imperfections in Rogue One and The Force Awakens to extract the lessons we can learn about showing vs. telling, active protagonists, and meaningful consequences.
