Educating Rita
Jul 31, 2008 Coolidge Corner
Rita is a discontented young wife seeking a path to self-discovery. Frank is a disillusioned English professor with a penchant for the bottle. When Rita enrolls in Open University and takes Frank on as her tutor, they both begin to see changes in their lives and in themselves, and a gentle romance emerges between the pair. Julie Walters and Michael Caine both earned Oscar nominations for their roles in this brilliant, bittersweet comedy.
