I quite like this idea. It seems original. A few queries though – how would he ever see the money if he’s supposed to be dead? Is that when they cotton onto him that an underground rapper is now getting his fortune? How will he cover up his death? And when you say stuck in the past do you mean mentally or is this a weird time travel movie?
The log line can certainly do with some trimming. It certainly gets the story across but a lot of it can be condensed. The opening line feels like it could be trimmed to a few words, as well as the staging his death line. A good idea but the log line just needs the fat cut out.
Interesting movie concept with the potential for some great music. “forgotten” and “stuck in the past” seems redundant. Also, “to generate record sales” would seem sufficient.
Thanks for the comments.
Kriss: The Protagonist is stuck mentally in the past, struggling to hold onto fame. Although a weird time travel element could spice things up!
Musegetes: Thanks for the suggestions.
