• a coming of age story (and my favorite movie of 2009)

An Education is based on on the memory of Lynn Barber. Nick Hornby wrote the script. Carey Mulligan has been nominated for a Golden Globe for best actress (and many other acting awards). The entire cast is nominated by the Screen Actors Guild.

Details bare earth: the film takes place outside London in 1962. Jenny (Carey Mulligan) is sixteen, and one of the brightest students in her daughter's private school. She wants to go to Oxford to study English literature. She meets a nice man, family, older. This film is perhaps the perfect entry in the history of the period. Yes, I know what a strong statement that is. Lynn Barber's story is not necessarily unique, but is a product of time, she grew up. However, as someone who came of age in the 1990s, the United States and not in the 1960s Britain, which could be my story. It is the perfect entry in the history of the age, as this dichotomy between originality and Everywoman Ness. Carey Mulligan is great, but Peter Sarsgaard was fascinating. He completely nailed the British accent, immediately checked to see if [...] was, in fact, Colombia. The whole cast is amazing and the casting director deserves kudos too. It is rare to see a cast without a weak link. It is easily the best movie I've seen this year, and although there is some resistance to such a bold statement, is one of my favorite movies of all time. I'll see how to stand up over time and multiple visits, but is a modern classic. It's great, moving, funny (Nick Hornby, remember) and immensely watchable and re-watchable. With the opening of the Best Picture Oscar to ten films this year, we have a chance of a nomination, I hope. Seriously, it's the best movie I saw in 2009.
