Description:
The Pulaski Theatre will show the classic film "The Graduate" as part of their First Friday Classic Movies series on Friday, September 6th.
The Graduate is a 1967 American comedy-drama film directed by Mike Nichols. The film tells the story of Benjamin Braddock (played by Dustin Hoffman), a recent university graduate with no well-defined aim in life, who is seduced by an older woman, Mrs. Robinson (Anne Bancroft), and then proceeds to fall in love with her daughter Elaine (Katharine Ross).
In 1996, The Graduate was selected for preservation in the U.S. National Film Registry as being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”. Initially, the film was placed at #7 on AFI’s 100 Years… 100 Movies list in 1998. When AFI revised the list in 2007, the film was moved to #17. Adjusted for inflation, the film is #21 on the list of highest-grossing films in the United States and Canada.
The doors open at 6:30 pm and the movie begins at 7 pm.
The Pulaski Theatre is a restored, historic theatre located in downtown Pulaski, Virginia at 14 West Main Street.
