The Graduate

In my personal opinion, The Graduate get's a 10 out of 10. I really do recommend this film, it's a great movie, that has great humor. It is because of this humor, that I give this film a 10 out of 10. This film was made in 1967 and falls under the comedy genre.








The main actor of this film is Dustin Hoffman, and he plays the part of Benjamin Braddock, the socially awkward recent college graduate. I have to say that he plays the part exceptionally well, and it truly adds to the humor of the film to see a fidgety, nervous graduate deal with an affair.


The music on this film ties in great with the film, and really adds to the message and effect that the director is trying to portray, or at least what I believe him to be portraying. I believe that the director is trying to get the message that a change is coming, and sometimes, it's for the better. I think that this is the message because it deals with graduation, and Ben turns from a socially awkward person, into a more confident, laid back individual.


I recommend this film to anyone who enjoys a minor drama, with plenty of comedy, or just anyone in general really, because even though I prefer action films, I give this film a 10 out of 10.

"Wood?" "What?" "Wood or wire, they have both." A little snippet of a conversation between Mrs. Robinson and Ben talking about hangers. Another humorous part in the movie involved talking about Mrs. Robinson.... "Where did you do it?" "In his car." "What kind of car was it?" "Come on now." "No, I really want to know." "A Ford." "Goddamn, that's great. So old Elaine Robinson got started in a Ford." That is my person favorite part of the movie, and it's the main reason I give it a 10 out of 10, if it weren't for that part, I only would have given it a 9 out of 10. In the end, I do recommend this movie to everyone, and I believe that it is a film anyone can enjoy.
