The Graduate Review

Rating: Null/10 (18 December 2015)

I really enjoyed The Graduate. It is definitely a product of its time, you really can feel the rebellious uncertainty of that particular generation. Dustin Hoffman does a terrific job, however for me it is the music that makes the film. Simon and Garfunkel were responsible for the soundtrack, and it is by far the best part. There are some scenes were there is matched action between the music and what is happening on screen, which is done quite tastefully. The Graduate is a funny smart film that really anyone can enjoy. As a product of the New Hollywood era, Nichols does great job dealing with subjects that otherwise would have been very taboo for film 5 years earlier. I would recommend this film to anyone and everyone who has not yet seen it.
