The Graduate's appearance onto the cinematic scene brought a new type of film to the playing field. The Graduate is an American Language film directed by Mike Nichols and stars Anne Bancroft as the seductive Mrs. Robinson and Dustin Hoffman as the bright eyed and ever hopeful Ben Braddock.I loved the movie's portrayal of a young graduate's life in America. Although it is a concept that would seemingly offer little in terms of emotionally moving themes, especially when compared to other films that take place in less fortunate landscapes, this film is able to produce characters that the viewer can feel for.
No matter where one comes from, they should be able to connect with the experience of Ben, someone with potential but no real direction. At some point, everyone goes through a searching phase, where they may get into trouble, but come out for the better in the end.
