If I were to review An Education I think I’d praise it a little too much. It’s written for the screen by Nick Hornby, has Alfred Molina in it and took away a cinematography award at Sundance. I’m pretty sure you can’t go wrong. So I’m gonna cut the review and just drop three short comments that you can quote, argue against or stick on the DVD box.

“It’s got all the best parts of a Woody Allen film but without the whiny annoying guy.”

“I’d quite like Peter Sarsgaard to be smiling at me right now.”

“This film raises the bar for this sort of thing. The story unfolds well, the acting is top class and it’s funny as hell in just the right parts. Director Lone Sherfig has perfected the art of omission. It’s hard to pick the best feature of this film, but look forward to some impressive cinematography by John de Borman. “
