“Much is remarkable about the sweet and wonderful coming-of-age period drama “An Education,” the latest from Danish director Lone Scherfig and the first unqualified breakout at this year’s Sundance Film Festival….. (Carey) Mulligan is a newcomer to most audiences and while she has strong stage and TV work as well as supporting roles in art-house movies, “An Education” is her first leading screen role. She’s fantastic, utterly believable as a schoolgirl who desperately wants to be seen as a sophisticated adult,” said film critic Steve Ramos for indieWIRE back in January.
Peter Sarsgaard is also quite good in the film… You can see iW’‘s film page with release info here.
