then B, but it is not perfect again, for it employs the past time COWARD TURNED OUT TO BE, but there are several indications on the present time: a today's cinema, is.

I shouldn't be trying to answer these questions so late an hour but, as Stoylar and ngulati did, my vote goes to B.
Hey stoylar your "Alas" word reminds me of "The Lord of the Rings" book.  (It is used a lot in it)
Which is a good practice for RC by the way.

PR says its C...I guess its a PR typo... C needs a "is" in front.
And the sentence requires present tense. But Alas  , we are mere
mortals.
Martin, buy disclosed LSAT's for CR and RC..they are tougher than the
real thing, but as good as it gets.
"10 Actual Official Lsat Preptests" is the title of the book.

Hey Praet, are you sure C is correct? This doesn't seem ok:
"One of the most familiar plots used in todayтАЩs cinema in which the coward turns out to be a brave hero."
Sounds like the sentence should go on... doesn't it?
I regards to the LSAT material, do you think the free LSAT tests downloadable from their site are as god as the book you mention?

I know C is not good...but as i said, it has to be must be PR's typo...PR is
very inconsistent ...their quality is sometimes good ..but sometimes they
have wrong answers.
With LSAT, i have not tried the online tests..but as you said ,the downloads are free..so it must be more like an introduction to the types of questions that ou can expect on the test.
Hope that helps

C is the best of the worst,but still C should refer back to the plot.This is not happening here though.

B Where is only for places in the GMAT. C is not a clause; it is a phrase.

A,C , D and even E doesn't seem to be right. 'where' and in C, i think helping verb is missing.
IMO B.
