An Amazing Classic

Rating: 10/10 (11 May 2011)

I enjoyed every minute of this film! It kept a good pace with a firm balance on humor and emotional drama. There are quite a few clever shots and transitions between scenes. The writing is superb and the acting is excellent. Dustin Hoffman is painfully awkward in a way that is almost hard to watch. Anne Bancroft is excellent as Mrs. Robinson. She plays her character with a cool and brooding tone.
My only criticism is the reoccurring theme song, but I am clearly nitpicking. This trend seems to be very popular in the 1970's films (Midnight Cowboy, Harold and Maude).
Otherwise this film is an absolute must see and a cultural milestone.
