The Graduate

CriticsCritics: 85
AudienceAudience: 7.9

A directionless college graduate returns home and becomes entangled in an affair with an older woman. When her daughter enters his life, he faces conflicting desires, family expectations, and the difficult search for a future he can call his own.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like character-driven coming-of-age stories, uneasy romance, and witty social tension; Not for you if you prefer fast pacing, modern values, or straightforward happy endings.
