“The Florist” (*1/2 out of four) was a listless melodrama about a young free-spirit (Rebecca Murphy) who begins to make her living selling edible flowers to various clients and business owners in L.A. turning her into a successful capitalist who has to question her own meaning in life. Adapted from a short story in 2014 and short is what this should have stayed. Murphy’s earnest performance helps but film is wilted by its molasses and meandering pacing and nonexistent storyline.
