A Hero's Journey question

[Forty]

The question was posted in the "How Do I" section. The answer is the same:

The Hero doesn't "lose everything" - he or she "lets go."

The person who best understands this is Kal Bashir. See his 510+ stage Hero's Journey at www.clickok.co.uk/index4.html

I don't know "Much ado about nothing" off the top of my head, but there will definitely be a hero in there. Again, ask Kal. He's quite good at responding to questions.

Hello
My question is a bit complicated....

According to "Writer's Journey" and many other classic script writing book a hero should risk loosing everything towards the end of act 2 and in order to gain everything and more back at the end. But what if the choices the hero makes through out the film are wrong, and the journey he he takes is the wrong one, and he looses everything throughout the 2nd act and in order to gain everything back he must change his way. By that point he already lost all and not much has left to risk. I hope this make sense... Could this work in a romantic comedy structure?

Another question that i had, which is more out of curiosity, and because I am highly influenced by Shakespeare's romantic comedies, i was wondering, according to all the rules I am curious to find out if a hero can be determine for the play "much ado about nothing" and who would the hero be in that play. This is not strictly a script writing advice, but i was hoping you might have an answer to that.

Thank you very much for reading this, you have been a source of great help to me in the past and I very much appreciate it.
