Paul Thomas Anderson’s 'Licorice Pizza,' a coming-of-age love story set in 1970s California, is too kinetic and surprising to qualify as nostalgia, writes critic joemorgenstern
Anderson’s “Licorice Pizza” doesn’t make you happy, the trouble may be that you’re clinically depressed, anhedonic or don’t care for movies in general. It gave me pleasure just to be sitting in a Los Angeles theater waiting for the first beam of light from the projector to hit the screen.
The Valley, a suburban ribbon of strip malls, tract houses, wooded estates and pop-culture fame, is where Mr. Anderson grew up and where he set three of his seven previous features: “Boogie Nights,” “Magnolia” and “Punch-Drunk Love.” His new one, much too kinetic and surprising to qualify as nostalgia, takes place a few years before the raunchy events of “Boogie Nights,” his rise-and-fall chronicle of a porn star.
