Editorial Review:

Amazon.com essential video:
Few films have defined a generation as The Graduate did. The alienation, the nonconformity, the intergenerational romance, the blissful Simon and Garfunkel soundtrack--they all served to lob a cultural grenade smack into the middle of 1967 America, ultimately making the film the third most profitable up to that time. Seen from a later perspective, its radical chicness has dimmed a bit, yet it's still a joy to see Dustin Hoffman's bemused Benjamin and Anne Bancroft's deliciously decadent, sardonic Mrs. Robinson. The script by Buck Henry and Calder Willingham is still offbeat and dryly funny, and Mike Nichols, who won an Oscar for his direction, has just the right, light touch. --Anne Hurley

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Film Studies Review
This film is about a guy name Benjamin who just gets home from a college.

Eventually he gives into her, and they have affairs for many months. Elaine Robinson, Mrs. Robinson's ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classic film
I was a kid when the film was released.
Seeing it years later I think it is a great film.
Course I was too young so I did not see the impact of the film then.

NOT a great DVD package here.
Old interview with Dustin. Why was there not current interviews with the cast & crew still alive?

Package CLAIMED there was a collectible booklet. Where?
Would have liked to have read it.

Rating for film NOT DVD package




Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Good Film But Poor DVD!
This is as good as black comedies come and Dustin Hoffman shows us just how great an actor he is even all those years ago. I was impressed also with the great direction and especially the way the scenes transition from one to the next; inspired work indeed. In some ways the film is also touching as it reveals that behind the facade of prosperity and family wholesomeness lies some very unhappy and unfulfilled lives.

Hoffman's character feels lost as despite achieving all that society ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - However, upon further review...
This is an atypical review for me folks. Rather than review this classic film, which most people have already either seen or heard about, I wanted to entice you fans out there to post some commentary on some of the points I have covered below. After all, Amazon does tell us to 'make it fun'!

We all know that this is one of those no-brainer, without-a-doubt comedy classics that is seemingly above reproach (a la "Some Like It Hot", "Annie Hall", "Tootsie", Dr. Strangelove", etc...). ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Timeless Work of Art
1967 was a huge year for film. In my opinion, the best film of that year was Mike Nichols' "The Graduate". It was the most unique film of its time and is now considered a timeless classic.

Aside from it's release date, costumes, props and the Simon & Garfunkel soundtrack place this film in the 60s. What makes it a timeless classic is that nothing dates it, we see no Vietnam War and no hippies. Also the themes from this film, coming of age, rebellion (against parents, against the ...
