LICORICE BANDIT

A mysterious man holds up a candy store with a toy gun, and steals only licorice -- which he has been known to do before. Clearly not just an urban legend, this man has very deep motivation which is revealed through his actions. Originally filmed as a pilot, this absurdist short sparkles with warmth and energy, and was described favorably by a cable-network official. Filmed at an actual candy store. Starring Josh Ford and Arsonval Faria, this is a stellar entry in the Lertwammy Film Collection.
