Top 10 🤩 Educating Rita Blu Ray – Malcolm Douglas, Julie Walters 🛒

Educating Rita reunites director Lewis Gilbert with star Michael Caine and once again their collaboration proves a staggering success. Gilbert reminds us he is not only a master of commanding the camera but a master at deconstructing the human heart. Rita (Julie Walters) a sharp witted hairdresser is married to Denny and at 26 years old doesn’t want a baby. She wants to discover herself and so joins the Open University. Dr. Frank Bryant is a disillusioned university professor of literature. His marriage has failed his girlfriend is having an affair with his best friend and he can’t get through the day without downing a bottle or two of whisky. He refers to himself as an appalling teacher of appalling students. What Frank needs is a challenge… along comes Rita. This hilarious and often moving drama tells how two people find a new lease of life through each other. Written by Willie Russell (Shirley Valentine Blood Brothers) Educating Rita proved the breakthrough movie for the BAFTA winning Julie Walters and saw Michael Caine deliver one of his most vibrant and memorable performances.
