This CLASSIC can change one's life

Rating: 10/10 (14 January 2000)

This movie is everything one can expect from a classic, but it's still MORE. Excelent actings, wonderful cinematography, astonishing direction, and most important of all, touching story.
What makes of "The Graduate" a real classic is the conflict in the carachter's life: how a fool and intelligent guy turns into a smart and decided man; how can such a sensual woman use a man to get sex and then take him off her life; how can a girl, seemingly presented to us as being so boring, conquer the heart of that fool guy and make him change his mind.
What makes "The Graduate" become a mark in my life is its poetry. It doesn't talk about a virgin guy who discovers the world. It's about a man who discovers himself, a man who finds himself after years trying to be what the parents, the neighbors and friends wanted him to be. Suddenly, discovering sex and love, The Graduate becomes a real MAN.
If you haven't seen this movie, you MUST see. I never thought it could touch me at such a deep way, but it did. Go see this movie. Maybe you'll find out that a guy comes a MAN not when he makes sex, but when he learns to fight for the things he loves.
