Brian E. (20) is the luck winner!!!  This is a great movie that we will hear about while the award programs begin formulating toward the end of the year.

Two people I know rave about An Education, a Lone Sherfig ’s  film.  They saw the movie last June and still talk about how it gets them thinking more and more about the two main characters Jenny and David  played brilliantly by Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard.  Thus, I am drawn into the film as well and have done a couple of posts about the movie.

An Education won two awards at the Cannes Film Festival 2009:  Audience Award, World Cinema Dramatic Competition and Cinematography Award, World Cinema Dramatic Competition.

My friends strongly believe that both actors will be apart of the Oscar conversations that start rolling out about now.  One even believes SAG will give the movie an Ensemble Cast nod.

All in all, it is a movie worth seeing if it comes to your town. It opens on a limited release October 18, 2009.
