Art All Around: An Education

Movie Review: An Education

Director: Lone Scherfig (a lovely Danish woman)

Author of book: Nick Hornby

Some of the lovely actors: Carey Mulligan (eeek; so talented), Peter Sarsgaard (married to the lovely Maggie Gyllenhaal), Emma Thompson

This film takes place in England in 1961.  It's about the life journey of a 16-year-old girl.  

I really, really liked this movie!  I don't want to give too much away.  It's a beautiful film.  And there is a fantastic Paris montage which made me feel quite interested in a trip to France!

Storyline: lovely.  Fashion: really, really lovely.   Tear count: several.  Laughter count: several.  Feeling of contentment after watching: completely.

Final Rating: 9 stars out of 10
