"An Education" is a beautiful british film starring Carey Mulligan, and directed by Lone Scherfig. The film is about Jenny Mellor, a typical teenage schoolgirl in 1960's London, whose world seems to drastically change. Jenny is walking home one rainy day after school, she meets a man much older than her, who offers her a ride home. Jenny's life completely changes as she becomes romantically involved with the man, who entices her into a gatsby-esque world full of luxuries and freedoms she had not yet experienced. Like I said its a beautiful film with beautiful shot composition. Scherfig manipulated the visual aspect of the film to aid in making you empathize with the film as a whole. Although the plot may not be based around a common situation, I felt that it was still very relatable.
Beautiful beautiful, watch it.
