Poetic License

Directed by Maude Apatow
United States
2025
117 mins

Poetic License follows Liz, a former therapist who relocates to a new town for her husband’s job – a place where she doesn’t know a soul. Her quiet attempt to settle in takes an unexpected turn when she becomes the point of tension between two inseparable best friends and college seniors, Sam and Ari. As their fierce competition for her attention threatens to upend their lives, Liz is pulled into a tangle of longing and self-discovery, and the intoxicating thrill of being truly seen.

An irresistible directorial debut from actor Maude Apatow with radiant performances from Leslie Mann, Cooper Hoffman, and Andrew Barth Feldman,  Poetic License is a comedy about confronting the life you’ve got versus the one you still crave.
