Review of The Christian Licorice Store

A rare movie never commented on IMDb yet. So, I go for it. Well, everything has already been told in the plot line. I first thought of a Michael Ritchie movie, in the line of DOWHILL RACER, in a semi documentary style, a bout an athlete. But the James Frawley's film focuses more on the "inside", psychological aspect of the lead, Beau Bridges. Sometimes, the audience don't know where this film is driving at. Very weird film, as we saw so many during the seventies. The famous counter culture. It can be seen as a rather depressing movie, from a certain point of view. Gilbert Roland is touching as a vet tennis player. And watching Beau Bridges talking to Jean Renoir is also very surprising.
