Saw this movie last night. I differ from some of the posters here. I didn't see this film as anti-semitic at all. This movie was more about life... cisions for a young woman growing up. There were characters in the movie which identified themselves, through their dialogue, as Jewish but they could have easily have inserted "Roman Catholic", "Baptist", "Lutheran", etc. Their Jewishness had very little to do with the plot of the movie. For me, it was an artistic portrayal of a young woman coming of age in British 1960s. Wardrobe, hair, and make-up was flawless. in this movie. Carey Mulligan did an outstanding job in her role. I hope to see her in more movies soon. Full Review
It was a good story about growing up, learning, and making mistakes along the way. It was set in the 60's, so there were more prejudices back then.... They were what they were. I have to give an A+ for the young female lead actress. She made a good movie even better. Full Review

This happens in 1961, when 16-year-old girls were a great deal less knowing than they are now. Yet the movie isn't shabby or painful, but romantic and wonderfully entertaining.Full Review
This is a performance, and a film, to cherish for this year and always.Full Review
This tale of an English schoolgirl's hard-won wisdom is thrilling --for the radiance of Carey Mulligan's Jenny, who's wonderfully smart and perilously tender; for the grace of Lone Scherfig's direction, and the brilliance of Nick Hornby's screenplay.Full Review
An Education shares with Hornby’s best work trenchant insight into the way smart, hyper-verbal young people let the music, films, books, and art they love define themselves as they figure out who they are and what they want to be.Full Review
Afterward, you'll want to listen to the Beatles sing ''She's Leaving Home.'' It might be a girl like Jenny the lads had in mind.Full Review
