An Education (2009) short review

Kendra May 7, 2009

2009 An Education

This is deserving of all the rave reviews it received! A very well done story of a precocious English high school-age girl who thinks she’s ready for more than she is.  Surprisingly bittersweet, and the plotline surprised me.  Carey Mulligan was really mesmerizing in the main role.  The costumes were well made and designed to suit the story and the era — early 1960s.
