Rope of Silicon posted a clip montage of the adorable and compelling independent film An Education.  As I mentioned in an earlier post, An Education star Carey Mulligan (Doctor Who, Pride & Prejudice) received quite a bit of buzz at Sundance this year with Oscar winning predictions from several sources. Mulligan is Jenny, a teenage girl living in Britain in 1961 on the cusp of the strait-laced, post-war period and the free-spirited decade to come.

In an interview with sltrib.com, Mulligan speaks highly of her co-stars Emma Thompson and Peter Sarsgaard.  I found her so charming and unpretentious in the interview.

The clip montage of An Education gives you just enough information to understand why people are buzzing about Mulligan and the film.  Isn’t the last scene with Emma Thompson brilliant?
