Customer Reviews

Not all copies include DVD extras
The Graduate of course is in my top 5 favorite films. So of course I had to upgrade to Blu-ray.

I was excited that all the reviews say that the DVD included the extras from The Graduate (40th Anniversary Collector's Edition)

The DVD that came with my Bluray however did not. The version that came with mine was the 2005 MGM DVD release that only includes the trailer and 4:3 (not 16:9) letter-boxed version of the film. The Graduate

It seems Fox is just throwing in whatever DVD copies they have on hand so while some people are getting the 40th Anniversary DVD not all copies include that version.

Admittedly the packaging doesn't say that any of the DVDs extras are included but it's still disappointing when you read in reviews that they are included only to find that they are not in the copy you get. It's a weak move on Fox's part to include the DVD with extras in some copies and not in others.

I contacted Fox about this and they aren't willing to do anything about it.

So buyer beware NOT ALL COPIES INCLUDE THE DVD EXTRAS and there is no way to tell whether or not it does without opening it.

Coo coo kechoo Mrs Robinson...Blu-ray loves you more than you will know!
I love this movie, always loved it, even in Lo-Def or No Def.
Is Anne Bancroft hotter in HD/Blu-Ray? Is mad man Dustin Hoffman's insane screaming, "Eeeeellllaaaaine!" at the top of his lungs as Katherine Ross stands at the alter about to say "I do," more riveting and dramatic in Hi-Def?
Very possibly.
I don't know, honestly. This movie is so fabulous everytime I watch it though- Bancroft's Mrs. Robinson is the consumate cougar, and her performance is iconic. And she IS hot, as well as deliciously, stalkerishly creepy in this role! You don't need high def to appreciate that.
Dustin Hoffman's portrayal of the confused and obsessed Benjamin Braddock is pitch perfect. This story never gets old, it's classic, timeless, and set to a sweet Simon & Garfunkel soundtrack.
If you're replacing your collection with blu-ray, or if your looking for something to round out a "buy one-get one" deal, get this. It's an important movie, whatever definition you've got.

The Extras Are All On The Included DVD!
The packaging doesn't mention it, but all of the extras from the 40th Anniversary Edition ARE included. They're on the DVD copy that's included with the Blu-ray.
