Message: [QUOTE="nwhoopfan, post: 4846803, member: 7894"] For some reason I found myself thinking about the movie Liberal Arts (2012) recently. Hadn't seen that in quite a while, so I revisited it. Streaming on Kanopy. Josh Radnor is a bored college admissions officer living in NYC. His favorite college prof (Richard Jenkins) invites him to come to a retirement celebration. So back to his idyllic small town liberal arts school in Ohio he goes. While there he meets and is smitten with a student barely over half his age, Elizabeth Olsen in one of her earliest roles. He also befriends a troubled loner, runs into his other favorite teacher Allison Janney, and has a couple chance encounters with a trippy cosmic philosopher played by Zac Efron, who I completely forgot was even in this movie. It's very talky, but I enjoyed it now as I did when I saw it originally. Radnor doesn't appear to have a lot of range, but the characters he portrays are likable. Ted Mosby, architect. [/QUOTE]
