An Education
This spell-binding film follows the coming-of-age of Jenny(Carey Mulligan), a young, suburban school-girl in the 60s who dreams of going to Oxford. She plays the cello, has coffee with her friends, and delights in all things French and is happy with life. Then she meets David (Peter Sarsgaard), a 30-ish man who soon seduces her with his worldliness and knowledge.
