A female bounty hunter who hallucinates slices of the future saves a man?s life in order to collect the bounty on his violent time-travelling future self.

I?like the concept. Can’t complain about the length, 28 words. ? “Hallucinates slices of the future” is (necessary) hocus-pocus, I guess, but?I have no idea what that means. No matter, the core of the concept, capturing someone now to collect a bounty that won’t exist until the future, overrides that question in my mind. I would put it in the parking lot, wait to read the script.
I’m just a bit confused about the focus of the concept. ?Is the story, the bulk of the plot,?about her struggle to save his life in order to collect the bounty? Or is the story about what happens?after she saves him?

This seems to ?be a drama about ideas. ? And I like stories built on a solid foundation of important ideas, of weighty themes. Like?"Copenhagen", the award-winning play and TV movie (2002) about the meeting between 2 giants of 20th century physics in 1941, Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg. ?Only "CoRead more
This seems to ?be a drama about ideas. ? And I like stories built on a solid foundation of important ideas, of weighty themes.
Like?”Copenhagen”, the award-winning play and TV movie (2002) about the meeting between 2 giants of 20th century physics in 1941, Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg. ?Only “Copenhagen” wasn’t just ?idle chat about quantum mechanics and complementarity. ?The stakes were enormous. Who would win the race to develop an atomic bomb? To the winner of the race might go victory in World War II.
What are the stakes here? ?Why should the audience be concerned about whether or not Copernicus publishes his data and conclusions? ?What’s so important about “rewriting our understanding of the universe” in the historical context of that period?
And who is the antagonist? ?Who is threatening imprisonment? ? Who stands to lose by Copernicus publishing? ?(And why — which loops back to the stakes.)

Other than that’s the way you wrote the book. ? Adapting a book to a feature film almost always requires taking things out, adding things in, reshaping the story. ?They are 2 different mediums and do not always congruently map to each other. What works for a book may not work in a movie. And vice versa.
Not having an antagonist is a potentially serious problem when it comes to marketing the story as a movie. ?Just saying.
And does the diary reveal that the treasure was stolen from her father? ?If so, then the logline should indicate that there is a clear linkage between both.
