Welcome to the 5 minute FILM CLUB!

This weeks film (later than planned) is 1967s 'The Graduate' directed by Mike Nichols. Featuring a knockout performance by Dustin Hoffman this film is a milestone in the 'coming-of-age' genre that would later become a big hit in the 1980s.

Brilliant review Roland, appreciate hearing your thoughts! The comedy in this film was genuinely hysterical, especially Benjamin's socially awkward moments with Mrs. Robinson. That incredible "April Come She Will" sequence with Benjamin lying in bed blows my mind. The last shot speaks volumes just from the characters' expressions like you said--real emotions not at all forced. RIP Mike Nichols and thank you for giving us this timeless film.

Hey man nice review. I subbed. I just saw it again last night. It was deserving Dustin's oscar nomination. He is nerves and awkward but honest and rude. Something's in this film still hold up for me like his relationship with Mrs Robinson. The romance with the young girl o the other hand does not. Hey man I also have a channel where I review classic movies. I don't know if you would be interested to check it out and see what you think. See ya :)
