The Graduate was released on Blu-ray by StudioCanal as part of their 'StudioCanal Collection', one which I thought had very impressive AV quality.

We’ve searched via several film archive associations with worldwide members plus other routes. Only prints exist, and then very rarely. We will be using the existing master taken from a print which is in the best condition we have seen. However, further restoration work is being done on the master to address several issues that we can improve upon, including some image warping caused by rips/tears. Hours will be spent in manual restoration for further dirt and scratch removal, splice removal, improved stability and flicker repair. We are also re-grading to balance colour given the print source. We aim to give The Hitcher the best possible presentation it has ever had.”
Hmmm. That's disappointing. If they're just doing additional clean-up work on the existing taken-from-print master, I'm pretty sure that I'll just stick with my current German bd.

Maybe he was referring to the 1965 MGM vault fire which wouldn't have affected The Graduate? This was when the last print of London After Midnight was destroyed.
