Dustin Hoffman = Benjamin

Rating: 8/10 (13 April 2010)

This movie was excellent. There were so many directorial techniques. It had dramatic long takes, and zooming on the important characters. Some parts it had a montage of scenes. This movie showed the most match cuts I have seen in any movie that I have noticed. This makes the movie seem so much more interesting and really puts the watcher in the mood of the scenes.
The Graduate was filmed after the Hayes code, so the writers now had more of a freedom of having what they wanted in their films. Subjects such as sex, drugs, and more realistic drama.
Dustin Hoffman did an outstanding job at playing Benjamin. He showed great confused looks, love, and other emotions.
This indeed is a classic film, that has scenes people often still talk about. which I never knew till I finally watched this film.
