This movie is ripping off the classic comedy The Graduate which starred Dustin Hoffman when he was very young. That scene where Shue is seducing the boy is such an obvious ripoff of that movie.

Your ability to point out the obvious excels all others.

I'm pretty sure Charles Webb ripped of half the letters penthouse letters ever published for that scene.
shareYou're way off base. The novel "The Graduate" was written in 1963, Penthouse was first published in 1965 in the U.K., and in the U.S.A. in 1969. The reality is that older women have been seducing younger men (and boys) for a very long time, and vice-versa, and this has been fodder for many scenes in many books, plays, movies, poems, songs, and oral histories. So while "Behaving Badly" may have ripped off the seduction scene from "The Graduate" (haven't seen "Behaving Badly"), Mr. Webb constructed his particular scene from his own life and imagination, giving it it's own comic uniqueness in time, place, and character, aided solely by the same thousands of years of similar ocurrences in reality and fiction as any other author.
shareThanks for the heads up, captkirk_459. Helpful post.
