#TIFF25: “POETIC LICENSE” REVIEW
By Mr. Will Wong
Maude Apatow (Euphoria) is definitely going places and she delivers a very polished and accomplished directorial debut in POETIC LICENSE.
This quirky Comedy centers on Liz (Leslie Mann, Apatow‘s actual mother) who relocates with her family as her husband (Method Man) takes on a new assignment at a college. She is an Auditor, and sits-in on a Poetry class at the college, but before she knows it, she finds herself unwittingly caught in an emotional “love” (or not) triangle between two best friends, Sam (Andrew Barth Feldman) and Ari (Cooper Hoffman). All the while she is navigating her daughter Dora (Nico Parker) coming-of-age and about to head off to college, beginning to distance herself about from Liz. She is confused and trying to understand her place, feeling like a complete outsider at home and in her new surroundings.
POETIC LICENSE is quirky, yet so smartly-written and well-acted and we go through a real journey among these lost souls who are each at their own respective crossroads and intersecting in this story. Our three leads are terrific, but the real scenestealer is Euphoria alumni Martha Kelly with her deadpan delivery in the classroom as Poetry Professor Greta – worth the price of the ticket itself.
Kidding aside, it is refreshing to see interesting, well-rounded characters on the big screen here. Things are looking promising for Apatow and we are looking forward to more.
