High Concept essentially means a film gimmick you can get across in very few words.
Mother changes body with daughter.
Lawyer can't tell a lie.
White kid poses as black to get into college.
Fop makes bet he can go around the world in 80 days.
Labrador plays basketball.
DeVito and Schotzy are twins. (Maybe)
Rosemary stumbles onto pool repairman fondling himself by the pool, so she...
OK, not that last one.

Wayan Brothers pose as titsy chicks doing topless carwash might be.
40 Year Old Virgin All you need is the title.
Throw mama from the train. Same thing.
College boy suffers from angst while finding self is like No Concept.
Cheech and Chong movies are only High Concept in a very figurative sense.
