I like this one… there’s a protagonist with a goal, and the obvious threat of conflict, but, the only thing I’m iffy about… this “perfect end” in “the old West” seems a bit ambiguous.? I can see maybe he wants to reach the Alamo, or maybe the town where his childhood idol, Billy the Kid died.? You show the British Gangster while a youth, and have it tie back to that, speaking to the romanticism of violence in our culture.? I think you explain the purpose of his goal nicely in your logline, but I think it’s simple enough to add a specific plan without making it too wordy since you can just replace “to see the old West”.
If, as Richiev suggests, he wants to go out with an old fashioned Western shootout, the logline needs to say so.? Like:
A British Gangster dying of cancer seeks the perfect end to his violent career: a shootout at the O.K. Corral in Tombstone, Arizona.
