An Education
An Education is based on a memoir, with the same title, written by British journalist Lynn Barber, the screenplay was written by the wonderful author that is Nick Hornby. It is about a 16-year-old girl, Jenny, who simply can't wait to become an adult. One rainy day after school she meets a much older man, David, who shows her a glittering new world of art, bars, concerts, theatre and his glamorous friends, replacing her traditional, school education, with his own. He sweeps her off her feet with this new romantic lifestyle, leading to a trip to Paris and their engagement, however the seemingly perfect lifestyle ends not so perfectly.
The acting in this film is superb, the cast fit their roles perfectly sending you on an emotional roller coaster, one minute you'll be undoubtedly happy, and the next you'll be crying alongside the characters. The overall storyline is what captivates me, but nothing is a disappointment, the costumes are beautiful and fit the setting of the play wonderfully. It truly is a wonderful film and I would recommend anyone to buy it on DVD.
