Review of Harold and Maude (1971) by Dominic S — 20 Nov 2013
Harold and Maude is a beautiful, touching and funny film about a 20 something year old Harold and a 79 going on 80 Maude and the relationship that sparks between them starting from when they first met at a funeral.
Harold and Maude first share a connection when it is revealed that they both enjoy attending funerals. They share a few talks here and there, and they both begin to share a special bond between them that I have never seen before; a bond that could only be found in this movie.
Both Ruth Gordon and Bud Cort give breathtaking performances that make you fall in love. I absolutely loved the character of Maude for her zany and care-free personality.
This film is incredibly funny all throughout, touching and beautiful as well. The ending will hit you like a ton of bricks and you will leave with a life-long for this Hal Ashby film.
Harold and Maude, I give you a 100%.
