Line 7:
** Pretty funny to think of Warren Beatty and Doris Day [[Playing Against Type|trying to play the virginal Ben and the vampy Mrs. Robinson]].
** Mike Nichols asked Paul Simon to write a whole batch of new songs for he and Garfunkel to record expressly for the film. Only one of the new songs ("Mrs. Robinson") was deemed good enough to use, so preexisting S&G recordings were used to fill the soundtrack instead. However, two of the other intended songs ("Punky's Dilemma" and "Overs") would be included on the duo's ''Bookends'' album the following year.
*** And "Mrs. Robinson" might not have ever been if Simon and Garfunkel hadn't already been working on a song called "Mrs. Roosevelt" which they repurposed in thirty seconds at their first meeting with Nichols.
