The Graduate Review

Rating: 10/10 (27 April 2015)

The Graduate directed by Mike Nichols was a phenomenal movie. I finally have watched the movie to the catchy song, here's to you, Mrs. Robinson by Simon and Garfunkel. I never knew this song was from this and for this movie. All in all though, I loved this movie from start to finish. It was a perfect plot and Ben was your typical kid who doesn't know what to do after college. The whole scenario with having an affair with someone's wife, then falling in love with their daughter was brilliant. The quality of the movie was great and the color looked really good. The best scene to me was at the end of the movie. I loved it when he was standing at the top of the church banging on the glass door. He didn't have a care in the world and he was going for what he really wanted. It was really cool. But after that, when their on the bus driving away was the best. They got on the bus and they went to sit and the back and seemed very happy. When the bus drove away, the look they both gave each other was perfect. They both looked like they knew they messed up with what they had just done and that they couldn't take it back. The bus was already leaving symbolizing that there was no turning back.
