But I feel like Hackman walked away from The Graduate feeling he had something to prove, and proved it with an early-1970s run of performances that turned him into an unlikely first-tier movie star. 2/

neutral · AI labelView post →Do we talk enough about the work Surtees did on THE GRADUATE? There are moments in it that feel like an experimental film. I've always been so distracted by the timing of the dialogue/performances, but this is one gorgeously, meticulously, composed film visually. Probably just me, late to the show.

Spoiler: this film is not about graduation with like a hat and a gown, just graduating from one state of depression to another, and boy did that hit. vaughnjoy.substack.com/p/his-very-o...
positive · AI labelView post →The climax of "The Graduate" was shot at La Verne United Methodist Church (3205 D St.). Unchanged today but for this movie magic... The outdoor staircase that Ben climbs to the balcony to scream "Elaine!!!" was a prop removed after shooting. IRL, it's accessed by inner-stairs.

Just unbelievably good. A criticism walloping both patriarchy and capitalism it also works as an unofficial sequel to The Graduate.
