Brilliant.
The Graduate only gets better with age. It's the kind of movie where every viewing you can see something new. Spectacular performances by Hoffman and Bancroft, and brilliantly directed by Mike Nichols.
The story is told through music, visuals, subtle editing techniques where one scene flows into another, and light and shadow. One look from a character to another can show more than could ever be said in dialogue. This is editing and art direction at its best. The cinematography from the film was done by Oscar winner Robert Surtees, who said he put more into this film than any in his 30 year career.
If you haven't seen this movie. See it. If you've seen it, see it again.
