Read somewhere this was as good as The Graduate. And although it does have some redeeming features (the first phone call Benjamin and McGraw have is fantastically trusting of Roth's source material) and is fairly risque for its time, it's still a little clunky, especially in the production design which tends towards Brady Bunch.
