Movie Review: An Education

[lampie1970]

Soooo Good. The girl, Carey Mulligan, in this is nominated for an Oscar and deservedly so.

It is a "coming of age" about a 16 year old girl, kind of stuck in the 60s England with a focus on Oxford and achieving. A total focus. She and her parents are gullible and along comes Peter Sarsgaard. He is a playboy of sorts. He is going to give her more of an education than Oxford ever could. It is worthy to see in the theater, but you wont miss anything by waiting for DVD.

Also, a treat for you guys: Rosamund Pike looks fabulous in her Jackie O stylings in this. Just fabulous.

4 out of 5.
