A classic, funny and entertaining

Rating: 7/10 (1 May 2001)

Dustin Hoffman begins a stellar career as a young college graduate just home from school and into the dizzying world of expectations. Excellent use of close focus and sweep early in the film to give the feeling that the walls are closing in on him. Hoffman is superb as the naive, insecure boy in a man's body. Funny at almost every turn, it's well worth viewing.
