Eww, a banana? Really?

An Education was our introduction to the luminous Carey Mulligan, wherein she played 17-year-old francophile Jenny Mellor in early-1960s suburban London. We relate to this character as a (less sheltered, more taken-advantage-of) version of our younger selves, who were similarly pretentious and culturally-obsessed. This is a (more or less) easy-breezy 100 minutes, and definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen it recently.
