Jenny and David (Carey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard) in An Education
While teenage Jenny, her parents, and even the audience get seduced by Sarsgaard's beguiling bon vivant in 2009's Oscar-honored picture, there's an undercurrent of dread in watching the central age-inappropriate romance unfold. By the time Jenny skips her A-levels for further adventures with her increasingly shady fellow, you'll be reminded of what your mother told you about getting into cars with attractive strangers — even if it's chucking down rain and you're lugging your prized cello behind you! — Michael Slezak
