The new GRADUATE restoration will then play in over 700 movie theaters nationwide on April 23 and 26, as part of TCM and Fathom Events&#8217; monthly &#8220;TCM Big Screen Classics&#8221; series.<\/p>\n<p>The new restoration will also screen at this year&#8217;s Il Cinema Ritrovato festival in Bologna and will be released theatrically and as a special edition Home Entertainment release in all Studiocanal territories (France, Germany, U.K., Australia and New Zealand) throughout the summer.<\/p>\n<p>Hoffman, in his star-making, breakout role, is Benjamin Braddock, the college track star suddenly adrift after graduation, and ripe for seduction by an older, married woman: Bancroft&#8217;s coldly calculating friend-of-the-family Mrs. Robinson. When Ben ultimately falls for dream girl Elaine (Katharine Ross), who happens to be the Robinsons&#8217; daughter, it sets up a love triangle like no other in American films up to that time.<\/p>\n<p>Adapted from the Charles Webb novel by Buck Henry and Calder Willingham (which immortalized the word &#8220;plastics&#8221; in the lexicon of hip expressions), THE GRADUATE was the biggest box office surprise of the decade, nominated for seven Oscars\u00ae andwinning for director Nichols&#8217; sophomore effort. The classic &#8220;Top 40&#8221; score by Simon &amp; Garfunkel started a new, youthful trend in soundtrack music as well.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><i><b>&#8220;A MILESTONE IN AMERICAN FILM HISTORY!&#8221; \u2013 Stanley Kauffmann<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15259\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate4SG-1024x428.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"397\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate4SG-1024x428.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate4SG-300x125.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate4SG-500x209.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15260\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate5SG-1024x435.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"919\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate5SG-1024x435.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate5SG-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate5SG-500x212.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 919px) 100vw, 919px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15261\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate6SG-1024x434.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"923\" height=\"391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate6SG-1024x434.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate6SG-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate6SG-500x212.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 923px) 100vw, 923px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15262\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate7SG-1024x435.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"923\" height=\"392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate7SG-1024x435.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate7SG-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate7SG-500x212.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 923px) 100vw, 923px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15263\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate8SG-1024x432.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate8SG-1024x432.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate8SG-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate8SG-500x211.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15264\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate9-1024x429.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"821\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate9-1024x429.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate9-300x126.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.moviepropcollectors.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/The-Graduate9-500x209.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 821px) 100vw, 821px\" \/><\/p>\n<iframe id=\"basic_facebook_social_plugins_likebutton\" src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.moviepropcollectors.com%2Fmagazine%2Fmike-nichols-the-graduate-new-4k-restoration-for-50th-anniversary%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;show_faces=false&amp;width=&amp;action=like&amp;font=arial&amp;colorscheme=light\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:px; height:25px\"><\/iframe>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; I was just sent this press release announcing the new 4K retoration and release nationwide in movie theaters on of Mike Nichol&#8217;s iconic film, &#8220;The Graduate&#8220;. 2017 is the films 5oth anniversary.
