Negative Positive
Title: Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?
Review: This reviewer has recently been on a regional-retro film fest of my own, watching the Minnesota branch of the Graduate's off-spring: (the Heartbreak Kid; Foolin' Around,) and decided it was high time to revisit their roots. I'm glad I did. The Graduate is still prime Boomer comfort and soul food.And I learned a lot from the extras on this "Special Edition:" For instance: Dustin Hoffman as Benjamin and Director Mike Nichols are *not* attempting some grandiose JesusChrist Superstar (Oops! Wrong Movie ;-) symbolism when Ben is pounding on the upstairs window in the church - it was a pragmatic solution to the real parish pastor's concern that they were gonna break his beautiful bequested glass if Dustin/Benjamin continued pounding on it like he had at rehersals - better to disperse the pressure!All in all, still fantastic after all these years! /TundraVision, Amazon Reviewer
