The Graduate (Mike Nichols, 1967)

7/10
I didn't love the movie but I enjoyed filling in the blanks in my on-going lessons in movie history. It's amazing how many things derive from or riff on or parody scenes from this movie. And why did this weird little movie have such a giant impact? I liked it but I think it was very much of its time. I also understand the soundtrack is part and parcel with the movie but wow I could have done with a lot less Simon & Garfunkel.
