This is a radio version of the play adaptation of the film - the cast includes Kathleen Turner and Bruce Davidson. It was never that wild about the film - maybe it was over praised. It adapts quite well to stage, the writer did a good job. From memory the second half seemed changed more - there's a scene between Mrs Robinson and her daughter, and a different build up to the finale.
The second half is less entertaining - less Miss Robinson, more doormat Elaine and lot more Benjamin being stalker-y and rape-y to Elaine. He's a psycho. I'm on Mr Robinson's side. But there are laughs. Turner is very good - actually the whole cast are.
