I was going to say that! It's my favourite movie comedy. It's routinely voted best comedy ever over here. It's also the film that made me realise what all the fuss was over Marilyn Monroe and that she was actually brilliant.
Just re-watched The Graduate last night after finishing the book it was based on. The movie holds up quite well in my opinion, and is definitely a step up on the book.
After I finished reading the book I looked up the author on wiki. His page reads like a fake, it makes the guy sound so strange. I checked a few of the references and it appears to be legit.

Have we already had a thread in which we discussed movies that surpassed an acknowledged good book? One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest immediately springs to mind. Loved the book, but Jack took the movie up another notch. He did that in The Shining also.
