'Oh, no Mrs. Robinson. I think you're the most attractive of all my parents' friends.'"; "This is Benjamin. He's a little worried about his future."; "'Mrs. Robinson, you're trying to seduce me...aren't you?'"; "Screenplay by Calder Willingham and Buck Henry"; "Songs by Paul Simon performed by Simon and Garfunkel"; nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award; about a college graduate who becomes involved with the wife of his father's business partner and then romances her daughter) starring Anne Bancroft (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film; as Mrs. Robinson), Dustin Hoffman (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film; as Benjamin Braddock), Katharine Ross (nominated for the Best Supporting Actress Academy Award for this film; as Elaine Robinson), William Daniels (as Mr. Braddock), Murray Hamilton (as Mr. Robinson), Elizabeth Wilson (as Mrs. Braddock), Buck Henry (who wrote the screenplay, as the "Room Clerk"), Brian Avery (as Carl), Norman Fell (as Mr. McCleery), and a young Richard Dreyfuss (in a bit part, but he does have two lines!)

Important Added Info: Note that we have only auctioned one example of this pre-Awards standee before (in 2018) and now that very same standee has been reconsigned to us for this auction, so it is still the only example we have ever auctioned! Note also that it has been established that the leg in the iconic image on this item belongs to Linda Gray (who later went on to fame in TV's "Dallas"), and not Anne Bancroft. However, as it is clearly intended to be thought of as Bancroft's leg (Gray was an unbilled body double, or more accurately, "leg double"), we are referring to it as such. Finally note that this standee needs to be sent in an oversized flat package, which measures roughly 17" x 39" x 2", so it will cost more to send than items that fit in our standard flat packages, especially if they are sent to non-U.S. addresses. Condition: very good. There are a few tiny faint stains and some scuffs scattered through the standee. The original cardboard sections that a pole would be stuck trough to make the standee stand up are still present on the back, but of course, the pole is long gone. The four sections of the poster were separated from each other and someone put reinforced paper tape on the back o those areas. Learn More about condition grades
