Liberal Arts (US, 2012)

Went to this on the basis of Elizabeth Olsen's top notch performance in Martha Marcy May Marlene, one of my top 2 films of 2012 so far, and also on the strength of the trailer. It's subtly soppy and striving for 'meaningfulness' in places, but not a bad show; Olsen's character is embarrassingly over-earnest by times, perhaps deliberately - she carries it off very well and it's further proof of her ability as an actress.

Just a little short of 7/10.
