The Graduate

BBC One
on BBC One London

Continuing a season of films starring the renowned screen actor.
Tonight with Anne Bancroft, Katharine Ross.
Shortly after graduating from college, Benjamin Braddock returns home to a celebratory party. It's there that he discovers a new 'tutor' in the attractive form of Mrs Robinson. Twice his age and worldly wise, the alcoholic Mrs R decides that Benjamin needs instruction in more physical matters after his intellectual struggles....

A witty script, memorable Paul Simon songs and a fine central performance from Dustin Hoffman - in his screen debut - helped make this one of the greatest box office successes in movie history.
