CGiii Comment

The subtext may not hit immediately - but it will - and when it does - it's like a punch in the nose.

Good film - remarkably similar, in tone, to The Social Network.

The Education of Charlie Banks is a coming of age tale that spans from the playgrounds of lower Manhattan to the idyllic greens of a fictional liberal arts college in upstate New York. Set during the eighties, it is a story about change, inevitability, and ultimately, about facing one's fears.
