>sir we have three Simon & Garfunkel songs we can use

hello darkness my old friend

and it worked perfectly

was it really only 3? it seemed more like 4 or 5

>>80752438
It's because those songs weren't actually supposed to be in the movie. Nichols used them in an early edit as placeholder music and would loop songs if he felt more music was needed than the songs' original duration allowed. I personally feel The Sound Silence sequences work very well, but Scarborough Fair starting and randomly stopping four times in 10 minutes is ridiculous.

Who was the bigger cuck, Elaine or Mrs Robinson?

>sir we have three Leonard Cohen songs we can use on the soundtrack
>oh great use all of them at least 5 times each throughout the film

Fun fact: they gave the character Mrs. Robinson that name so it would fit the song

They haven't ever released the version of The Sounds Of Silence that is played at the end
It's not the original rock version

>>80752769
No. The name comes from the book and the lyrics of an unfinished song called "Mrs Roosevelt" were changed to "Mrs Robinson".

Why did she choose to follow that turbo autist?

>>80752438
>adjusted for inflation this movie grossed almost $800 million
wtf I love the 60s now

So what exactly was his problem?

Why was he a depressed little faggot

>>80752438
Did Mrs Robinson actually have contempt for Benjamin or was she just salty about (potentially) getting cucked?

>watch this movie

You should watch the Theron movie Young Adult.

>>80753286
she was upset that a younger and prettier woman was stealing the attention of her lover, and that would have been the final nail in the coffin for her narcissist persona that fails to recognize she's getting old and her glory days are behind her - something that Mrs Robinson fears facing

GET HYPE

The only difference is that in this version the milf isn't his father's friend but his father's mistress.

Sounds like generic uncharismatic TIFF trash that won't get a proper release.

I will watch it ASAP though.

why is TIFF so lame?

>>80753901
While I greatly enjoy how TIFF is open to the public and a few good films have premiered there, TIFF is mostly about posturing. It's for bad "alternative" films that have a (relatively) big budget and play it safe. The programming is filled with trash like famous actors' worthless directorial debuts that happen to have some buzz because of the actors' fame.

>>80753797
Nice.

I didn't understand that movie at all. It just seems incoherent to me. He has an affair with an older woman, is slacking off and then stalks this girl. The only consistent thing seems to be him being depressed, that he feels like crap again even after what looked like a happy ending at first.
Am I missing something? This film is considered a great classic, but I just don't see it.

It's partly the moment in time it was released. This film's version of marriage isn't as revolutionary today.

Finding out that song wasn't composed specifically for ITMFL blew my mind. Same thing when I found out The Godfather theme was a rehash of the composer's earlier work because he didn't finish writing something bew on time.

>>80752771
I've actually never seen The Graduate but fuck me if that small last piece couldn't be used as an example of a short film simply because of Dustin Hoffmans acting, a cautionary tale of chasing passion or something. Brilliant!
