Film Director: It is true that certain characters and plot twists in my newly released film The Big Heist are strikingly similar to characters and plot twists in Thieves, a movie that came out last year. Based on these similarities, the film studio that produced Thieves is now accusing me of taking ideas from that film. The accusation is clearly without merit. All production work on The Big Heist was actually completed months before Thieves was released.
Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest support for the director's rejection of the accusation?
(A) Before Thieves began production, its script had been circulating for several years among various film studios, including the studio that produced The Big Heist.
(B) The characters and plot twists that are most similar in the two films have close parallels in many earlier films of the same genre.
(C) The film studio that produced Thieves seldom produces films in this genre.
(D) The director of Thieves worked with the director of The Big Heist on several earlier projects.
(E) The time it took to produce The Big Heist was considerably shorter than the time it took to produce Thieves.
答案C 我選E
請問答案C正確是因為這類型的電影都有相同的腳色和劇情轉折,所以不算抄襲?
答案E,說明製作時間較短,是否也可支持不算抄襲?還是因為前提提到,重複前提?
呵呵,怎麼覺得自己有點自問自答...

也請大大幫忙看看我這樣思路是否正確呢?
