Hawkins: "I've got it! I've got it! The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle; the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true! Right?"
Griselda: "Right. But there's been a change: they broke the chalice from the palace!"
Hawkins: "They broke the chalice from the palace?"
Griselda: "And replaced it with a flagon."
Hawkins: "A flagon...?"
Griselda: "With the figure of a dragon."
Hawkins: "Flagon with a dragon."
Griselda: "Right!"

It's 1961 in the London suburb of Twickenham, and bright sixteen-year-old Jenny (Carey Mulligan) is on the cusp of womanhood, fantasizing about a more sophisticated, refined life while smoking Gauloises cigarettes.

Her path takes a turn, however, when she meets David (Peter Sarsgaard), a man who seems to embody her every fantasy. [ more ]
