An Education ****


Director: Lone Scherfig
Year: 2009
Memoir by: Lynn Barber
Adapted by: Nick Hornby
Cinematographer: John de Borman

Excellent script, very well made film. Squirming in my seat the whole time, getting angry, wanting to reach through the screen to slap her father into having some sense, and to yank the young girl from the arms of that slimy weasel. Good when a movie can get a visceral reaction out of its audience.
