His re-write of the logline is great, and he “gets” the concept, unlike Phyllis, who seems to be more concerned about how the script may or may not be delivered. She offered very little regarding the logline or the concept, besides it being “familiar”.

The questions Dave asks are quite possibly the type of questions a producer may ask him/herself when reading the logline. This is the intrigue factor. Whether or not there is enough intrigue to make them want to read further- that is the ultimate question. For the record, if the writer says “only person” in the logline, I’m going to assume that question is asked and answered in the first ten pages, or else it’s in the cirular file, baby!
