What a novel concept - a college movie Educating Rita, directed by Lewis Gilbert, not only about frat parties! Since it is the only movie I have watched ,which explores the true value of schooling and remains close to one's hart as the main character,amazingly played by Julie Walters,explores the true value of herself as well as human virtues ,vices and resposabilities she becomes aware, as she progresses further in education.
What I liked about it is no grand pronouncements of love, no cliche cliffhangers or deaths in icy seas. Instead, the story portrays Rita and Frank in a very realistic, human manner and that true sincere look into ourselves in search for 'a better song to sing' touches as deeply,as it is very close to peolple ,who just like her stand on the life's crossroads.As the story unfolds, we watch as they grow as individuals which causes their friendship to become richer. There are turns to the plot which are unexpected and make the entire move very watchable and educative piece of cinematography.
