More Photos And New Trailer From Lone Scherfig’s ‘An Education’

By now you’ve probably heard all about Lone Scherfig’s “An Education’ and the stellar performance from it’s lead, 2009 It girl, Carey Mulligan. Just to wet your appetite on the brink of the film’s screening at TIFF, here is a batch of new images and an international trailer for the film.

Set in a pre-Beatles 1960’s England, this coming-of-age tale centers on 16 year old Jenny, a school girl who yearns for the independence and liberation of her post-high school life. Her world is thrown upside down though when charming 30-something David (Peter Sarsgaard) whisks her away from the mundane suburban and school life with her parents (Alfred Molina and Cara Seymour) and teachers (Emma Thompson and Olivia Williams) to a world of fancy jazz clubs and restaurants with his business partner Danny (Dominic Cooper) and his girlfriend Helen (Rosamund Pike) — ultimately offering the young schoolgirl a shortcut to the high life she’s always dreamed of.

Award season buzz has surrounded the film since its Sundance debut with Mulligan going from strength to strength as the year has progressed. Scherfig has also been talked about for a Best Director’s nod as well as Molina for Supporting Actor; to a lesser extent Sarsgaard; Nick Hornby for his adaptation of Lynn Barber’s novel; and, of course, the film for Best Picture — which is a real possibility with the 10 nominations. And yes, it’s that good (ok it’s ending is a little clunky, but it’s forgivable).

“An Education” will also see a limited release on October 9th.

  1. I thought the first was better than the international one. The first one drew me in with the music and told a story leaving me wanting to know more.
    This trailer seems more like scenes were jumble together with little effort, and looks like a generic film I could care less about.
