Education Rita - Comparative film and drama Willy Russell 's drama education Rita was very welcomed, especially in the early 1980' s. There is also a movie starred by Julie Walters and the famous Michael Caine. Films are usually more sophisticated, there are more scenes, some of which are mentioned and spoken by actors in the play.

As she asked her mentor Frank, "When did you tell me?" Rita's desire and desire for education are obvious in the film (Russell & Reitz 2012 p16). For Rita, good education will mean a better lifestyle as it gets new good between a high salary job, a better meaningful dialogue, a new person, and the good things that education brings.

Such confidence is the freedom brought about by education. Rita can escape from an ignorant prison like a cave prisoner. The prisoners were in the dark cave, where they could not distinguish between the shadow and the real thing. The state of the prisoner in the cave is similar to the state she was educated.
