Riassunto

Per quanto riguarda i genitori di Benjamin Braddock, il suo futuro è cucito. Ora che si è laureato, andrà a Yale o Harvard, troverà un buon lavoro e si godrà una vita di soldi, cocktail e feste in piscina in periferia, proprio come loro. Per Benjamin, tuttavia, questo non è abbastanza. Quando l'amica dei suoi genitori, la signora Robinson, una formidabile donna anziana, si spoglia nuda davanti a lui e i due iniziano una relazione, sembra che lui abbia trovato una via d'uscita. Cioè, finché non entra in gioco sua figlia Elaine, e le cose si complicano molto di più.
