British films II: An Education

The second film I would like to recommend today is An Education, the story of a bright but gullible schoolgirl in the provincial suburban London of the sixties (yes, you heard right). Fancy restaurants and nightclubs and the streets of Paris or Oxford provide the perfect backdrop for this coming-of-age tale signed by the amusing pen of English novelist Nick Hornby.

  1. My dear friend: you're familiar with my weakness for British movies and my absolute adoration for Nick Hornby!! I want to watch those films... but I will have to solve my problems with drowsiness after 8 pm. Maybe we can make a deal about the films, and I promise I'll watch them... any morning!
