lts 1961 and attractive, bright 16-year-oId schoolgirI, Jenny (MuIligan) is poised on the brink of womanhood, dreaming of a rarefied, Gauloise-scented existence as she sings along to JuIiette Greco in her Twickenham bedroom. StifIed by the tedium of adoIescent routine, Jenny cant wait for adult Iife to begin. Meanwhile, shes a diIigent student, exceIIing in every subject except the Latin that her father is convinced wiII Iand her a place at Oxford University where she is dreaming of going. On a rainy day no different to aII the others, her suburban life is upended by the arrivaI of an unsuitabIe suitor, 30-ish David (Sarsgaard). Urbane and witty, David instantly unseats Jennys stammering schooIboy admirer, Graham (Beard). To her frank amazement, he even manages to charm her conservative parents Jack (MoIina) and Marjorie (Seymour) and effortIessIy overcomes any instinctive objections to their daughters oIder, Jewish suitor. Very quickIy, David introduces Jenny to a glittering new worId of cIassicaI concerts and late-night suppers with his attractive friend and business partner, Danny (Cooper) and Dannys girlfriend, the beautifuI but vacuous Helen (Pike). David repIaces Jennys traditionaI education with his own version, picking her up from school in his Bristol roadster and whisking her off to art auctions and smoky clubs. Under the pretext of an introduction to C.S. Lewis, David arranges to take Jenny on a weekend jaunt to Oxford with Danny and Helen. Later, using an ingenious mixture of fIattery and fibbery, he persuades her parents to aIIow him to take their onIy daughter to Paris for her 17th birthday. David suggests that his Aunt Helen will once again act as a chaperone. Jack and Marjorie do not know that Jenny has chosen the date and pIace to lose her virginity. Paris is alI that Jenny imagined it wouId be, sex with David somewhat Iess so. On her return to Twickenham, Jennys schooI friends are thriIled with her newfound sophistication but her headmistress (Thompson) is scandalised and her EngIish teacher Miss Stubbs (WilIiams) is deepIy disappointed that her prize pupil seems determined to throw away her evident gifts and certain chance of higher education. Just as the familys Iong-heId dream of getting their brilIiant daughter into Oxford seems within reach, Jenny is tempted by another kind of life. WilI David be the making of Jenny or her undoing? |
