#56 - HAROLD & MAUDE (1971) - Ruth Gordon, Bud Cort - Dir Hal Ashby

A cult classic this week as Trev suggests 1971's macabre comedy drama Harold and Maude - a film that most film buffs revere yet most people haven't heard of... well, its about time you did. Harold (Bud Cort) a young man obsessed with death, who's favourite past times are recreating suicides and visiting funerals, meets Maude (Ruth Gordon), an eccentric elderly lady with a zest for life and the two spark a strange but eye opening relationship. Some fantastic direction by Hal Ashby and a terrific soundtrack from Cat Stevens, which sparks this weeks listeners question - what are some of the best movie soundtracks. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast.
