I watched it once before, and now I think the music is pretty good. I listen to this song all the time, but when I watch a movie as the background music, it is another feeling.
Graduation is unemployment, and I don’t know where the future is going, so I have to fill the void and find something to do.
The world makes people, and when they are wrong, they know that they should not be wrong. Although the road ahead is still blurred, at least there is something that he has no time to care about at this time, so he does not seem so empty and powerless at this time. It seems that he has temporarily found something to fill his life. .
Come to think of it, these two kids are pretty bastards too. Hey, not much to say. The world is full of wonders. I remember one time at dinner, a fellow asked another fellow, "I heard that your current girlfriend is the sister of your ex-girlfriend." Mom's daughter!" I was listening to the sweat beside me...

    In the modern "The Sorrows of Young Werther", love is not love, it is trying to achieve something and grasp something. Purely because of this restless age and society, confused and eager, audio-visual language (when the sound and picture are different, the instant editing, the amplification of the sound, and the close-up when necessary) is really very pioneering. In the end, he ran away from the marriage, took the bride to the end on a bus full of middle-class middle-aged people (a metaphor), accepted their gaze, and then they smiled, and then they were at a loss, and that bit of confusion came again. Graduates don't actually graduate.

The Graduate quotes

  • Mrs. Robinson: [gets into Benjamin's car] Drive down the block.

    Benjamin: Mrs. Robinson, Elaine and I have a date, we're going for a drive.

    Mrs. Robinson: [angrily] Do exactly as I say!

    Benjamin: [Ben drives down the block] Now, it seems to me...

    Mrs. Robinson: Listen very carefully to me, Benjamin: You are not to see Elaine again, ever! Those are my orders, is that clear?

    Benjamin: Mrs. Robinson, do you think...

    Mrs. Robinson: I can make things quite unpleasant.

    Benjamin: How?

    Mrs. Robinson: In order to keep Elaine away from you, I'm prepared to tell her everything.

    Benjamin: [Ben stops the car] I don't believe you.

    Mrs. Robinson: [threateningly] Then you better start believing me.

    Benjamin: I just don't believe you would do that.

    Mrs. Robinson: Try me.

    [Ben gets out of the car]

  • Benjamin Braddock: [runs into the Robinson's house, up the stairs to Elaine's bedroom] Elaine! Elaine!

    Elaine Robinson: I'm not dressed yet!

    Elaine Robinson: [Ben barges through her bedroom door] Benjamin, I said I wasn't dressed.

    Elaine Robinson: What are you doing?

    Benjamin Braddock: Elaine, I have to tell you something.

    Elaine Robinson: What is it?

    Benjamin Braddock: That woman...

    Elaine Robinson: What?

    Benjamin Braddock: That woman - that older woman that I told you about?

    Elaine Robinson: You mean that one?

    Benjamin Braddock: Yes, the married woman; that wasn't just some woman.

    Elaine Robinson: What are you telling me? Benjamin, will you just tell me what this is all about?

    [Elaine turns around, and sees her mother, Mrs. Robinson standing in the bedroom doorway; her expression turns to shock]

    Elaine Robinson: Oh, no.

    Benjamin Braddock: Elaine...

    Elaine Robinson: Oh my God.

    Benjamin Braddock: Please.

    Elaine Robinson: Get out of here.

    Mrs. Robinson: Goodbye, Benjamin.
