After finding out he has a month left to live, high school junior Felix Chester focuses all of his time and energy on one goal: losing his virginity to his dream girl.

I agree with some others, just one month to live yet still the energy/life left in him to get laid? What exactly is he dying of? Maybe he has one month before his illness kicks in and body starts shutting down... An interesting concept that could be funny, serious (50/50 territory maybe, but with the teenage bildungsroman aspect) and heart-warmingly sentimental towards the end (try not to make it overly sentimental, which might be a challenge).

I see the potential, but yes, currently comes off as a bit "silly" as mentioned by others.

Hi fellows,

Richiev's is quite a better logline.

But I agree with him and Steven Fernandez: it emphasizes how this story is thin.

I would like this experience leads the hero to something higher, and/or it introduces the girl as a second hero who joins him in this higher quest then helps him to go.
Could it be a good story with dual heros?

Hi fellows,

This logline sounds fine.

I agree with Richiev about this story. I think that the hero's goal remains still basic. I would like this experience leads him to something higher.
Or/and it may introduce the girl as a second hero whose goal will be helping him to goes (but maybe this smells a little too much as "Love Story"?).
Could this be a good idea for a dual heros story?
