Can you give some examples of Character arcs, and theme and flaw on some movies so i can see how they are connected?

My bad example, please improve:
STAR WARS:
THEME:? believe in yourself?
FLAW: Insecurity/Does not believe in himself
INTERNAL “GOAL”: Believe in himself
GOAL: Blow up the death star
CRISIS/How he overcomes his flaw: He uses the force instead of the targeting computer
CLIMAX: He blows up the death star

JAWS
What is the theme and flaw? Is his flaw that he is afraid of water or that he don’t take action? If theme and flaw is connected how can his flaw be that he is afraid of water?

I would be thankful if you could give me some examples on movies like Jaws, The Thing, No Country for old men, Fight Club, Sixth Sense, Memento, basically any movie. Or point me to a link with many examples.
