Licorice Pizza (2021)
Am I Out Of Step?
My wife and I spent an enjoyable evening watching this movie. I am puzzled by all the negativity. We found the film entertaining and fun. It was our first time seeing both lead actors in anything and they were both revelations. Cooper Hoffman nailed it as a confident, entrepreneurial teenager in love with an older woman. Alana Haim is perfect as the 25 year old who is knocked off balance by the teenage Gary Valentine's persistence and chutzpah. The LA setting was great, definitely evocative of the 70s. The "supporting" cast includes Sean Penn, Tom Waits, and a deranged Bradley Cooper. I would suggest you ignore some of these reviews, watch the film, decide for yourself.
Murphy's Romance (1985)
Easy to like for both women and men. A people film.
Others have said it better and with more detail: gentle, pleasant, enjoyable romantic comedy. James Garner and Sally Field are pros and they work together so well and so smoothly.
Design for Living (1933)
Pre-Code Delight
Risqué and entertaining. Enjoyed it all three lead performances. First time seeing Miriam Hopkins and she is a delight: uninhibited, alluring, and free.
Emily in Paris (2020)
'Light as a feather
Enjoyable series. Nothing here to think too deeply about. Lily Collins is perky, pretty, delightful. Beautiful vistas of Paris, pretty people, pretty clothes. Love that each episode is under thirty minutes. Like eating a light French pastry.
Running on Empty (1988)
The Sins of the Father
Very good film. Moving at times. Excellent cast. River Phoenix is wonderful to watch, but sad to know he left us so soon. Christine Lahti is beautiful, lovely to watch as the mother and heart of the family.
