Our take

The second feature from writer-director-star Josh Radnor, this campus comedy is a charming graduate from the Woody Allen school of neurotically high-minded romcoms. With an alluring performance from Elizabeth Olsen, Liberal Arts is a seductive ode to scholastic nostalgia and May-to-December romance.
