THEATER REVIEW: THE GRADUATE * * * (3 stars out of 4).
External link:
I saw the Graduate on Broadway last night with Danny B. and his brother Bernie. Briefly, in case you've never heard of or seen the movie, both the movie and the play are about a recent college graduate who has an affair with his parents' friend, Mrs. Robinson, who has a daughter named Elaine. The play stars Kathleen Turner as Mrs. Robinson, Alicia Silverstone as Elaine, and Jason Biggs as the graduate. It went into a lot more detail than the movie, with a lot of scenes and confrontations that were skipped in the film. To me, the play, much more than the movie, is really about Elaine, and her transformation from a mouse who does as she's told to an adult woman, who trades her innocence and sweetness for freedom and self-determination. Of course, the play, far more than the movie, is also about the full frontal nudity of 48-year-old Kathleen Turner. This is The Official Record.
