The goal of this paper is to present a multimodal framework for analysing a particular dimension of space in moving images, namely,  narrativised space . In particular, this paper unravels how the framework offers effective methods for addressing empirical questions which have been extensively debated in recent decades in the studies of moving images such as transmediality and narrative complexity. To achieve this end, I first provide a specific definition of the dimension of narrativised space and move on to discuss what essential properties of narrativised space might support viewers’ meaning interpretation paths. This leads to a more fine-grained categorisation of features which function so as to lead the viewers’ navigational routes within and across different narrative levels and event spaces. Through applying the framework to analysing Brian De Palma’s war film  Redacted  (2007) and Spike Jonze’s  Adaptation  ( 2003 ), this paper will show the analytical strength of the proposed methods and the potential of the framework for addressing corpus-based empirical questions with regard to puzzle films and transmedial comparison.
