Anyone who has read the novel should see this film, which stars Emily Blunt, an out-of-work heavy drinker who rides a train and thinks about her former marriage. Her former husband, who belittled her, can't control his sexual urges, especially around his baby's sitter, which results in the woman becoming pregnant. She confronts him, which ultimately leads to him killing her. I can't explain how his former wife confronts him without giving away the ending.

Unlike many movies based on novels, which are not necessarily faithful, "The Graduate" is an exception. This reviewer read the novel many years ago, and the film version is faithful, including the dialogue between characters. The acting is very good.
