A logline is a one-line catchy way of describing your movie to someone interested in buying your script.
Many people assume the logline is a summary of the movie when in actuality the main purpose a logline must serve
is to convince someone to take a look at your screenplay. It's basically a one-line pitch for your story.
Blake Snyder, author of Save the Cat, says "The number one thing a good logline must have, the single most important element, is: irony."
Snyder shares this logline as a demonstration of the irony:
A businessman falls in love with a hooker he hires to be his date for the weekend - the logline for "Pretty Woman"
