Today, I watch a movie named ” An Education”, this movie’s background was Twentieth century it describles a 16 years old girl who studied at a high school in England named Jenny, she was a very smart and pretty girl, all the teachers and her parent expected her can go to Oxford. At first Jenny conscientiously obeyed the rules of the school until she met a gentlement–David. David gave her another life which full of enthusiastic,he lead her to the classical concert, the high society’s banquet, give her CHANEL as gift. Little Jenny has lost in the romantic world. he like this life style, in this world, no homework, no Oxford,no latin , all the things are she wanted. David can give her all she wanted which she cannot got from her parents. When she told her parents she want to engage in David, her parents agreeded with it, they sais the reason why they want Jenny go to Oxford is want to she marry to the man like David. Then Jenny left school, her teachers asked her do not do that, they thought if a girl didn’t reveive high education and to early to marry was superficial and she will repent her decided one day. In the end of this movie, Jenny found that David had wife and child, and she was one of the girl that David cheated. She felt so sad, but she dicided to go back to her student’s life, with the help of her teacher and her efforts, she was admitted to Oxford University. Because she knew that “The life I want, there is no short cut.”
After watched this movie, I remember a Chinese old proverb that is “Daughter has to use a rich way to develop.” Because in our morden society, there are too many attracts, little girls easily to loss themself in reality world. Therefore, if parents can give their daughter a good living conditions, give her better education, also give her a sense of worth, let them have dependent personality, therefore, when they face the same circumstances, they won’t make the choice like Jenny. As the Jenny understand in the end, ” The life we want, there is no shortcut.” Girls need to pay more attention on themself, enrich the mind with knowledge. Remember, there is no shortcut in the life. This is also the movie want to tell us.
