Licorice Pizza

In the San Fernando Valley in 1973, a teenage entrepreneur and an older young woman form an unusual friendship while chasing opportunities, testing boundaries, and navigating confusing feelings. Their loose, eventful journey moves through youthful ambition, Hollywood circles, and the uncertain territory between companionship and first love.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like nostalgic, character-focused stories such as Lady Bird, but Not for you if you want a tightly plotted romance or are uncomfortable with its central age gap.
