The Graduate (1967; 106 minutes)

Dustin Hoffman is 21-year-old Benjamin Braddock, a recent college grad trying to avoid the one question everyone asks: What does he want to do with his life? An unexpected tryst with bored housewife and friend of his parents, Mrs. Robinson (Anne Bancroft), turns complicated when Benjamin falls for her daughter, Elaine (Katherine Ross). The groundbreaking dramedy was North America’s top grossing film of 1967 and nominated for seven Academy Awards.
