An Education (2008) starring Carey Mulligan, Peter Sarsgaard, Alfred Molina, Emma Thompson. In 1961 London, 16-year-old, Oxford-bound Jenny (Mulligan) meets the much older, worldly David (Sarsgaard). David proves a master at manipulating Jenny's father (Molina), and she is soon motoring off with David for a weekend at Oxford, then for a visit to Paris; Jenny gets a different sort of education in David's company. Her teachers and headmistress (Thompson) think she is throwing away her future, but of course she sees things differently. Mulligan was nominated for an Oscar for her performance in this, her first film. The subtitles are really very good. Grade: A
