Films that do not follow this structure Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds - The film starts off with peace, then suddenly the birds start attacking, and we get the disruption to the plot, however the film then takes a interesting turn, as the ending has no resolution to the disruption, the birds are still (unexplained) still attacking, the characters drive away but we never know weather or not they survive.
