I'm satisfied. DVD and Blu-ray worked as expected. I received the product earlier than was waiting for (international delivery#.The Graduate #+ Widescreen DVD) [Blu-ray]

Boy, super listening to the simon and garfinkel music again. All the good feelings come back. The picture in blue ray is sharp and the music delightful. Story still holds up. "Plastic"
Mrs. Robinson are you trying to seduce me. YES.

There's been so much written about this classic movie that I won't bother to write too much more. The movie looks surprisingly fresh for being over 40 years old (especially the blu-ray version). It doesn't look old.
With that said, the movie isn't as funny as I had expected or hoped. Some of it might be Dustin Hoffman's acting - I like him in other movies, but he comes off pretty annoying here. Part of it might be that the movie pushed cultural boundaries and spoke to issues in the 1960s that don't have as much resonance today. Some scenes were just too over the top - like Hoffman's parents forcing him to go scuba-diving in the pool. I just don't get the humor there.
The movie made great use of Simon and Garfunkel songs for the soundtrack! It really becomes part of the film and tells the story. Frankly, it's probably the best part of the movie. It would be nice if more movies weaved pop music in their films.
Bottom line: if you liked The Catcher in the Rye (or stories like it), you'll like The Graduate. If you're like me and hated that book, you won't find the movie that exciting either.

I love this movie, always loved it, even in Lo-Def or No Def.
Is Anne Bancroft hotter in HD/Blu-Ray? Is mad man Dustin Hoffman's insane screaming, "Eeeeellllaaaaine!" at the top of his lungs as Katherine Ross stands at the alter about to say "I do," more riveting and dramatic in Hi-Def?
Very possibly.
I don't know, honestly. This movie is so fabulous everytime I watch it though- Bancroft's Mrs. Robinson is the consumate cougar, and her performance is iconic. And she IS hot, as well as deliciously, stalkerishly creepy in this role! You don't need high def to appreciate that.
Dustin Hoffman's portrayal of the confused and obsessed Benjamin Braddock is pitch perfect. This story never gets old, it's classic, timeless, and set to a sweet Simon & Garfunkel soundtrack.
If you're replacing your collection with blu-ray, or if your looking for something to round out a "buy one-get one" deal, get this. It's an important movie, whatever definition you've got.
