This film is worth seeing for Carey Mulligan's praise-worthy performance of Jenny, a 16 year old girl morphing into a woman of wisdom and sophistication. Roguish love-interest, Peter Sarsgaard, although an actor of note, isn't quite charismatic or hunky enough to compel me to believe that Jenny would trade her scholarly ambitions for a dingy life with him in London. Felt repetitive and slightly trite, but captures mood and place competently. Can't offer a ringing endorsement....Off to see Bronson!
