We both LOVED this adaptation of the Willy Russell play. Rita is a working class Liverpudlian who decides she wants a literature degree through the Open University; Frank is a jaded university lecturer who can't stand his middle class students. The film made us think more about the purpose of education, and the ways gender and class intersect in the university.
