"Sometimes, students end up being the best teachers!"

Michael Caine and Julie Walters deliver a pair of wonderful performances, in this brilliant and bittersweet comedy about a man who has given up on life and a woman who is determined to change hers.

The Oscar nominated screenplay by Willy Russell (based on his own hit play), tells the tale of a boozily burnt-out professor and his newest student - a free-spirited hairdresser who thinks that Macbeth is the guy who runs the local pub!

Earning top marks for its feel-good story and direction by Lewis Gilbert, Educating Rita is a timeless comedy in a class all by itself!
