À propos de ce film

It's 1961 and attractive, bright 16-year-old schoolgirl, Jenny (Mulligan) is poised on the brink of womanhood, dreaming of a rarefied, Gauloise-scented existence as she sings along to Juliette Greco in her Twickenham bedroom. On a rainy day no different to all the others, her suburban life is upended by the arrival of an unsuitable suitor, 30-ish David (Sarsgaard). Urbane and witty, David instantly unseats Jenny's stammering schoolboy admirer, Graham (Beard). To her frank amazement, he even manages to charm her conservative parents Jack (Molina) and Marjorie (Seymour) and effortlessly overcomes any instinctive objections to their daughter's older, Jewish suitor. Very quickly, David introduces Jenny to a glittering new world of classical concerts and late-night suppers with his attractive friend and business partner, Danny (Cooper) and Danny's girlfriend, the beautiful but vacuous Helen (Pike). 2009 An Education Distribution Ltd.

Notes et avis

A great film. So interesting to see how society has changed over the years but human nature hasn't.

This film is great for anyone over the age of 12, I watched it and absolutely loved it so I showed my mum and she loved it too, it's brilliant!

I just adored this film. The acting, the story and the set.
