I recently saw a little known movie, An Education, the other night and found it to be a little gem of a movie. Although the subject matter may be offensive to some, the move was enchanting and the star Cary Mulligan was adorable and real.
The movie is set in 1961 London, coming-of-age story, set around an intelligent and sweet 16 year old who unwittingly falls for an older man. He charms her parents into letting him take her on trips to places she longs to see and introduces her to a world that she could only dream of. She is working hard to get into Oxford but her plans change as she falls in love with this older man.
The movie is filled with wonderful music and beautiful period clothes. I was lucky to find this movie playing in my local movie theater. It may be hard to find, but watch for it on DVD.
