Remake of The Graduate??


I say the review for this film and how it did well in the box office at the start for its unique story and its controversial explicit scene then it flopped but it got given great reviews for taking such a bold approach but is it not just a remake of The Graduate. Surely, a film made in the 60's is more daring and bold than a remake in the 2013 when things are no longer shocking.

Have you guys even seen the movie ?? Bunch of Morons !!

reply

Seen both of them, and both are different stories..
I believe 90% of bollywood movies are copied or "inspired" from world movies. But B.A. Pass belongs to other 10%.

The Graduate is about a complicated love story and based on Age difference.
B.A. Pass is a story of a young boy who finds a shortcut to earn money by being a male prostitute.

If you are saying that B.A. Pass is copied from The Graduate just because there is an age-differ-love-story then there are many movies in the world based on same plot. But all are not a copy of Graduate.

I guess you wanted to say that "the theme is same".

yeah..these guys probably wrote that before even watching the film.
its a surprise no one mentioned The Reader.

reply

Maybe none of them have watched "The Reader" =P

Anyway, I must say that "B.A. Pass" is a very well-made film. I really liked it.
