Negative Positive
Title: Excellent Film!
Review: "Harold and Maude" is one of the BEST films ever made. Bud Cort and Ruth Gordon give such brillant and believable performances. As you watch the film you entirely forget the age difference and find yourself believing that yes, "Harold loves Maude". The music of Cat Stevens adds an undercurrent that not only is this Romeo and Juliet of the early 1970's but also an extension of the counterculture movement of the 1960's. Maude, though old enough to be Harold's Grandmother, is a free spirit that decries the materialism and rigid social conventions of the day and personifies the counterculture movement. I only wish that a sequel could have been made; something like "Life After Maude" where we would find Harold making a profound and beneficial change in American culture.
