"An Education" is a great film about innocence. It has Jenny, played by Carey Mulligan. She is a sixteen year old girl trying to make her way through school in London and is trying to get accepted into Oxford University because her father really wants her to. Jenny is a gifted, smart, and beautiful girl but things change when he meets a man named David Goldman, played by Peter Sarsgaard. David is a wealthy older man and he tries to expose her to a life of luxury. By taking her to museums, clubs, hotels, and various other nice places. Obviously this is suspect for a man in his thirties to be spending time with a sixteen year old but Jenny really likes this new lifestyle. She has to decide whether this is a lifestyle for her or stay in London.
This is a great film for many ages. It is a coming of age story for Jenny and it really portrays a great story. This film was beautifully acted by Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard. They were fantastic together and they really made magic on screen because of the dangerous and suspect lifestyle they were in. The film really shows how really could sound and seem true and amazing it might not be at all. It also showed that the first love that everyone goes through is not everything people wanted it is really something that does not at all usually and it is not to be good to be true. It really has great morals in this film and it really is a great film to watch for mostly teenagers. Please go watch it.
