nathanbatesApropos of nothing, my favorite suggestions: Mrs. Robinson - Hathaway (she’d nail it. The humor, the tragedy, the indignation. It’s very easy for me to picture her in the role), Benjamin - Lucas Hedges (might be a tad too old now but I’ve always liked him a lot and he’s got a youthful face. I wish he had more visibility as an actor but it might have been his choice), Elaine: Kaitlyn Dever/Thomasin McKenzie (can’t quite pick between the two. Both are perfect for this. Maybe Dever a bit more. She’s played that emotional maturity a few more times I think. Then again, I am a big Eileen fan) (PS. I like the Jayme Lawson suggestion a lot too even though I still only know her from Batman), Mr. Robinson - Corey Stoll (again, he’d anal the humor and genuine heartache of the role.)
