The Graduate is a sixties classic but it still holds up today. Benjamin is a dissafected young man. He doesn't know what he wants or what to do and he is easily seduced by the vampish Mrs. Robinson - a family friend. Things get complicated when Benjamin falls in love with MRs. Robinson's daughter. Darkly comic and incisive.
