In the final moments before facing the firing squad, the charismatic leader of a murderous robbery gang makes one last request: to have her confession heard by the priest who was once her lover.
Sorry to disagree with you, dpg. But I don't subscribe to your paradigm of storytelling or your rigid definition of what a logline is or how it should function in this instance.

Maybe this formulaic approach speaks more about the effect on some writers of hyper-inflated budgets and corporate executives clinging to their paycheques rather than engaging audiences.
By the way, it is not my logline that is similar to ‘Amadeus’ but my screenplay so I don’t see the relevance of your comments about the stageplay. Also, the relevance of quoting screenplay dialogue in regard to loglines escapes me.

Hi dpg,
The screenplay shares the same structure as ‘Amadeus’ – it’s a story that’s told in flashback because the narrator is confessing past sins – again – to a priest. And yes, they are dealing with the ‘here and now’ – the knowledge that death is imminent and the need to reflect on the past. It’s human.
Here is the imdb logline for Amadeus: The incredible story of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, told by his peer and secret rival, Antonio Saleri – now confined to an insane asylum.
