The film was nominated for 5 Oscars for Best Male and Female Lead, Best Actress, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Photography.

Director Mike Nichols also won the 40th Oscar for Best Director for this film.

Mike Nichols films are always interesting to remember.

He won't put everything in front of people, but will use the lives of a little confused and confused little person to insult the real-life circumstances of a group of people.

Likewise with "Stealing Heart", this film perfectly presents various problems of adolescence.

And the two theme songs in the film are really good.

The "chip sound" is full of healing;

The scenes at "Scarborough Fair" made people miss him.

Young Benjamin (Dustin Hoffman) has just graduated from university with honors, and his parents are busy preparing a festive family party to celebrate.

Each guest congratulates him and asks him about his next plan, Benjamin is very confused and confused.

30-year-old Dustin Hoffman had no sense of disobedience as a graduate. The ignorance that had just passed was too real, and he deserved to be the best actor nominated for the 5 and 2 Oscars awards.

Mrs. Robinson (Annie Bancroft) is very interested in Benjamin. After the party, he asked Benjamin to bring himself home.

After returning home, Mrs. Robinson teased Benn in various ways, and Benjamin could seriously refuse at first.

But within a few days, he took the initiative to find Mrs. Robinson.

Because the days were too boring, people's topic was still: "What are you going to do", and she hadn't thought about it, she started dating Mrs. Robinson.

At the same time, Robinson's daughter Irene (Catherine Rose) returns from the field, Benjamin's parents and Mr. Robinson begin their matchmaking.

Elaine is young, beautiful, and full of energy. Mrs. Robinson strictly forbade Benjamin and Irene from contacting each other. Benjamin promised never to date Irene, but he didn't.

Moreover, he immediately fell in love with Irene.

Mrs. Robinson was furious and threatened to tell their story.

Benjamin did not give up because of this, he rushed over to Irene to talk about the matter.

This brave behavior is not forgiven by Irene, she returns to college, falls in love with another boy, and they decide to get married.

Hearing the news, Benjamin panicked, he drove a sports car his father sent to the city where Irene was, trying to save Irene's heart.

On the way, her car broke down, and the Robinsons did their best to prevent them from being together. Luckily, she arrived just in time at the end and finally impressed Irene with her sincerity.

At the wedding, Irene escaped the wedding.

Regardless of the world's eyes, and no matter what others stop, they rush towards freedom hand in hand without hesitation.

But after seeing them sitting in the car and smiling at each other for a few moments, Benjamin was not as happy as he thought. The joy of love did not overflow from the screen.

Right now, maybe he doesn't understand himself, does he really love Irene?

Or does he just want to fight those who don't let them together?

A contest in their teens, Benjamin and Irene win.

Benjamin's graduation anxiety seems to have resolved. He has a girl he loves, and maybe the next step is to enter the wedding hall, but he's still confused, but what's the next step?

They don't know, and nobody knows.

The lives of many people are not lived according to plan
