Who is the target demographic for this story? ?Who will want to pay to see this movie??
(Go ahead and take offense that I should be so indiscreet and crude as to raise the profane issues of money and audience appeal. ?But those are the 1st questions any movie producer worth his Beverly Hills mansion are going to ask about this logline. )
?Answer: not likely teens and young adults — why would they care about characters as old as their parents?
So that leaves the 40+ demographic as the most likely audience.
Maybe that’s what young screenwriters imagine how the 40+ crowd think and act, ?that they believe the way to regenerate in middle age ?is to regress and recapitulate the “glory days” of their youth.
Well, maybe some of them do. ? But when I look at the box-office for movies that work that schtick, I am dubious.
fwiw
This doesn’t describe a plot, what does the couple want and are they both the main characters? Would it not be better to make one of them the MC?
As it is, there is no conflict; what stops whom from achieving what? There is a slight possibility for a few melodramatic moments in which a married couple raises doubts about their relationship, but that’s not enough for a whole film and, as DPG pointed out, it certainly isn’t enough to attract a large audience. You need to rais the stakes beyond the emotional burden of an impending divorce.
It’s not bad but why is it a struggle for them to attend these said events? Reads a little confusing, and the hotel doesn’t really matter.
Maybe:
