Licorice Pizza was okay. not sure i'd do a rewatch.
i liked both main actors enough, but it seemed like a whole lot of story at once. i'm not well-versed in PTA films, so maybe that's his style.
all i got from this was gary wanted alana, and alana wanted to be with adults, but fit in better with younger crowds.
oh, and gary was a hustler.

it definitely seemed too busy for me, plot-wise; that's not difficult to do since I like my stories streamlined and simple, but I never really felt it settled on something you were supposed to come away with

Licorice Pizza is a vibe. It reeks of actual nostalgia.

yeah, i mean it had a quick pace, which i normally enjoy, but it was all over the place. i read a little about it this morning, and have a bit more context.

the film holds the royal family in equally low regard. everyone is a miserable cunt and monarchy as an institution is utterly inhumane and everything is hopeless (the lead is a brat, but she at least seems to be human —but guess what? she dies, so what’s all the pageantry for anyway). luckily spencer isn’t ’t even interested in fidelity to biopic tropes, to representing a particularly familiar kind of tragedy, and it has no use for good taste. trash is a constitutive part of the film’s success.
my only complaint is this wasn’t about the musks

I didn't have the fortitude to dig in to this moronic take, but Malloy is 100% right. The idea that Spencer is "melodramatic" is a misreading of the highest order.

Completely agree with Trag with regards to Spencer
Over the weekend watched
The Outfit - this was pretty good, and I really love Mark Rylance
The Greatest Showman - I enjoyed this a shit-ton more than I had expected to
All The Old Knives - this was pretty good
