Richard E. Grant actor

“The Graduate. I saw this on a re-release print last year and it is when Dustin Hoffman makes that panic sound when he's being seduced or being pursued by Bancroft, who was only eight years older than him at the time.”

Lee Unkrich director

“The Graduate, another amazing film, Mike Nichols. I started out as an editor when I went to film school... And there were a number of films that kind of blew my head open having to do with editing and the power of editing, and The Graduate was one of them.”

Lee Unkrich
