Terrific
Educating Rita shows the struggle of a young woman trying to expand her mind and horizons to break out of her working-class upbringing by getting an education through the Open University program in England. She's a misfit in her own world, and intuitively knows that she NEEDS to stop reading pulp fiction and learn a classical education because her mind is demanding more than the environment she's in is offering. What she didn't know is that it would be so hard and challenging. Along the way, she opens up the mind of her alchoholic tutor, Michael Caine, who is lost and struggling amongst the University elitism. Humorous and touching in every scene.
