Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - "All the world dearly loves a cage. . . "
But not Maude! She shows Harold that the boundaries/cages of life are self-imposed. Without giving any more of the story away, I'll add this comment: This movie has as many quotable quotes as Shakespeare! Not droll, boring lines suitable only for high-brows, but food for human spirits that have been broken almost to the point of no repair. Maude liberates Harold and Harold makes Maude "feel like a schoolgirl." When your love for life grows weak, see "Harold and Maude." One more thing, I had never seen a "Mona Lisa" smile on any actor until I saw this film. After Harold's second date runs out of his house in horror, look at Bud Cort's face! Harold gives the Mona Lisa-smile at the camera while Cat Steven's music plays background, then he looks up at his mother's glaring face and the smile quickly fades as he then looks down. It would take any other actor HOURS to perfect that scene, but Bud Cort makes it look effortless!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Do you enjoy knives?
Harold and Maude is my absolute most favorite movie of all time. I've seen it well over one hundred times since it was first released (right when I needed it, as a young college student). It not only is a scathing satire of the Army, psychiatry, and the Church, but also a funny black comedy mixed with an uplifting love story. Quite a heady brew, although not to everyone's taste, I suppose. Still, there are reasons why so many people love it. When I first saw it, I really identified with Harold, and his feelings of suffocation, despite his wealth. But I also wanted to be Maude, and still do. I also appreciate it as a film scholar, for it is one of the best edited films I've ever seen (although the cinematography is fading with time). I also think the Cat Steven score perfectly fits the themes. Having the film on video is a treat (I'm on my third copy, and I hope it will be on DVD in the next year or so).



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - who defines love?
Harold and Maude is one of those movies that isn't for the grown-ups of the world, young or old. it is about love not having limits, and the healing powers of living with the world, not just in it. It is equally about personal freedom and committment. This movie is the funniest, sweetest, most creative piece of work that twists what we all think we know into what we all should know. Harolds "deaths" and the games he and his mother play are a scream. I laughed out loud every time, at the over the top protrayal of teen-age rebellion and parental control issues. The film is multi-layered and very symbolic, and extremely dated now, but powerful for those that wish had been given the chance to look at the world through someone else eyes too. Bud Cort (who was nothing short of brilliant) Ruth Gordon, Vivian Pickles, the whole cast was wonderful.
