I was Wrong about Licorice Pizza

I adore this film by my favorite director. Endlessly re-watchable.

Same!

Great vid! The characters Sean Penn and Tom Waits play are based on William Holden and Sam Peckinpah respectively. Both Holden and Peckinpah served in WW2 and Holden also acted in military training/made war films, so the blurring of the line as to whether the character is quoting lines from a war film or having flashbacks to his soldier days is deliberate and meta as well.

Thanks! Also, thanks for these details, I had no idea. Looks like it’s layers all the way down.

You always deliver quality content Daniel, great job. You have inspired me to revisit the film.

[@offthewallnovels1292]

This means the world, thanks so much for watching.

Good job! I enjoyed that--especially the little Reddit shout-out. ;-)

[@offthewallnovels1292]

Gotta love Reddit. Thanks for watching!

Maybe that’s why his new movie is in modern day. Seems like he’s been stuck in the past himself with his previous films.
