The Graduate


*ing : Dustin Hoffman, Anne Bancroft, Katharine Ross
Director : Mike Nichols

Tagline : This is Benjamin. He's a little worried about his future.

The graduate is supposed to be a cult film and one of the best performances of Dustin Hoffman. Its an old movie, released in 1968 but the film could be relevant even today. The film is primarily a love story of a young graduate who doesn’t know wat to do in life. He ends up having a passionate affair with a much married elderly women. Fate takes a twist and he ends up falling in love with her daughter. What all a young man does or can do for the love is what makes the film special. You can feel the heartbreak and the pain and the desperation in Hoffman’s acting. Also, film has wonderful soundtrack and used quite well in certain scenes in which Hoffman drives his beautiful car on the streets of New York.

Rating :
* * * & 1/2
