Programmed August 2024
Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson
Licorice Pizza will be streaming exclusively on the Criterion Channel The great cinematic mythmaker of the San Fernando Valley, Paul Thomas Anderson stages uniquely American tales of ambition, destiny, downfall, and redemption on an epic scale. Full of bold camera movement, expressive compositions, and attention-grabbing music, and featuring showstopping performances from regular collaborators like Daniel Day-Lewis, Julianne Moore, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and John C. Reilly, his output ranges from dark, weighty explorations of moral corruption like There Will Be Blood and The Master to lighter (but no less intricately constructed) comedies like Punch-Drunk Love and Licorice Pizza , all stamped with his unique feeling for the ways in which the forces of fate and chance govern human lives.
