	ArtsEditor: December 1999: Making Tracks
		Many soundtracks have become separate entities from the films with which they are engaged, as they are both products of the films as well as works of art to be taken on their own merit.
		The soundtrack for Titanic broke numerous records, the most-well known being that it is the most popular and financially successful soundtrack in all of Hollywood's history.
		It is fair to say that for every soundtrack containing songs that take the radio airwaves by storm, becoming so popular that they are no longer associated with the film, there are many that capture the film's essence perfectly.

		As The Graduate begins, Benjamin Braddock, played by Hoffman in his first film role, tells his father that he's worried about his future, that he wants it to be "different." But as the wish comes true, Benjamin discovers an unfortunate side effect: his life becomes much more complicated.
		Turman found a copy of The Graduate, and thought highly enough of the story that he made a movie he considered to be 90-percent faithful to the book.
		The Graduate was featured in a recent All Things Considered segment on phones in the movies.

	The Graduate - Soundtrack
		Working on the soundtrack for The Graduate had one unexpected benefit that would prove to be the key in re-establishing Simon and Garfunkel's hit single touch.

		The Graduate is one of my favourite films and I think one of the things that makes this film so good is the soundtrack.
		This is a combined soundtrack between three artists, the main songs coming from Simon and Garfunkel, with additional material from a great jazz composer, David Grusin.
		This soundtrack really shows off his talent for writing songs in different styles, from the fluidity of 'Singleman Party Foxtrot' to the 60's funked-up jazzof 'on the strip'.

	The Graduate (1967)
		The Graduate offers quite a few terrific laughs and remains funny through repeated viewings, mainly because many of the amusing bits result from the nuanced performances; the jokes themselves don't seem that funny, but the way they're acted does.
		If one closely examines the film, one could easily pick it apart for various overly stylized parts and other aspects that could detract from its truth, but the picture flows and holds together so well as a whole that such criticisms are largely rendered meaningless.
		Overall, the image of The Graduate is a bit of a crap shoot, but the film remains consistently watchable.

	Song For The Asking \| Simon & Garfunkel Discography
		All tracks are remastered from the original twin- and multi-track tapes, and the set has been fleshed-out with "all" of the charting S&G hits.
		Originally titled Think Too Much, the project was started in 1981, and a rough cut of the album was compiled in early 1982 (see ROIO page for more details).
		As the wait continues for a proper soundtrack to the musical (Dreamworks SKG has been sitting on the master tapes for over two years), this is the best "snapshot" of the music from Paul Simon's ambitious-yet-flawed Broadway musical.

	Simon & Garfunkel @ Soundbug Music Artists
		These three efforts were among five original songs by Simon included on their first album for Columbia Records, Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M., which initially flopped upon its release on October 19, 1964.
		In 1967, Simon and Garfunkel contributed heavily to the soundtrack to Mike Nichols' film The Graduate, which was released on January 21, 1968 and instantly rose to #1 as an album.
		As their albums became progressively more adventurous, The Graduate Original Soundtrack was immediately followed in April 1968 at the top of the charts by Bookends, which dealt with increasingly complex themes of old age and loss.

	Soundtrack: The Graduate: Music from the Broadway Comedy - PopMatters Music Review
		Actually the version of The Graduate currently running on Broadway is based both on Calder Willingham and Buck Henry's brilliant screenplay and on the slightly less brilliant Charles Webb novel on which the screenplay itself was also based.
		You might then think that this is a soundtrack, sorta like what you'd expect to get from a movie -- and you'd be getting closer, but still not quite on the mark.
		To be fair, the stage version of The Graduate was developed by a bunch of Brits, who probably didn't realize how much American audiences have had these watershed songs of the '60s rammed down their collective throats over the years.

		His original screenplay was full of light moments, wit and emotion, much of which got lost in the translation to the screen.
		Originally intended for use on the 10th aniversary Oprah Winfrey show, this beautiful song was included in the Rainforest Foundation CD alongside other artists such as James Taylor & Madonna.

	Album Review: The Graduate (Soundtrack)
		But you're not here to hear me go on about the movie; you want to know about the soundtrack.
		I'll forego reviewing the David Grusin instrumental tracks and stick to the Simon and Garfunkel music, and I won't be reviewing songs in relation to their contexts in the film - it's purely the sound I'm concerned with here.
		As far as I can tell, it's higher-pitched than the original, which seems to be for two reasons: there's more emphasis on Art's voice, and I believe it's in a higher key than normal.

		The other half of the soundtrack employs a delightful lounge-type orchestral score by jazz musician and composer Dave Grusin.
		Whimsical soundtrack to the 1967 Mike Nichol's film blends the foxtrot generation with the soft-core hippie music of '60s Simon and Garfunkel.
		It's great to have the authenticity of the original score, but if you're buying "The Graduate" solely for Simon and Garfunkel, you may find 90% of the score sitting on your dad's music shelf.

	The Graduate - Movie Review
		The film also remains surprisingly undated, predominantly, I suppose, because of Benjamin's complete and utter oblivion to 60s society (dodgy haircut aside, he fits none of the drug-addled flower-loving free-shagging stereotypes we've come to associate with the teens and twenty-somethings of the era).
		Of course, having said all of that, there IS always the soundtrack, an inescapably nauseating Simon and Garfunkel celebration of all that is forever twee.
		DVD Extras: A trailer, a 20-minute featurette on 'The Graduate at 25', a stills gallery, and an interesting little 5-minute interview in which Hoffers lets us in on his idea for a sequel (I'd personally like it to be titled 'The Post-Graduate' - arf!).

		Charles Webb, author of the original novel that was made into The Graduate, was facing homelessness when he decided to sell his unfinished sequel to Random House, which plans to publish the novel next year.
		Originally, he didn't receive a dime for the rights to The Graduate.
		Obviously if there is a film, the cast of the original would not return (although it would be interesting to have Katherine Ross return as her character's mother), and the Mike Nichols film is such a classic that anybody cast in the iconic roles will spark controversy and protest.
