Review of Licorice Pizza (2021) by Misterwilliams — 05 Feb 2022
Licorice Pizza disregards the conventional and expected plot "necessities" and instead focuses on telling a relatable story of growing up and coming to terms with your childhood being over. Where it lacks in "conflict resolution" and "character development" it makes up for in relatability to one's own life and experience.
Imagine the emotion behind being so much older than someone yet loving everything about them except for their age, stunning. Also, Alana's realization through her feigned pursuit of maturity by working "real" jobs and hanging out with "adults" is so pure and enjoyable to watch as she slowly understands that she can be happy with what makes HER happy, not those around her.
A great emotional and pure film.
