El salto generacional y el discurso social en El Graduado

Abstract

The Graduate is one of the most representative films of late sixties and early seventies cinema movement New Hollywood in the United States for several reasons: the large audience and media impact during its showing, the disagreements in the specialized criticism and the iconic status it has since then. Based on the theory of films as representations of their contemporary historical and social events, in this paper we analyze the value of Mike Nichols film as evidence of the cultural change and generation gap of the period. We analyze its revolutionary character -paying attention both to its relation with counterculture and to its controversial ending- from the ideological and character description points of view
