“…probably the most charming movie about death that’s ever been made.”—Apollo Movie Guide
One of the definitive American movies of the 1970s, Harold and Maude is a cult classic combining offbeat, unpredictable humor with delicate humanity. Harold (Bud Cort) is a death-obsessed teenager, given to staging elaborate suicides. He meets Maude (Ruth Gordon), an 80-year-old free spirit, at a funeral. They embark upon a remarkable friendship, engaging in criminal mischief and finding renewed love for life.

Wikipedia
Harold and Maude is a 1971 film directed by Hal Ashby. The film, featuring slapstick, dark humor, and existentialist drama, revolves around the exploits of a morbid young man, Harold (played by Bud Cort), who drifts away from the life that his detached mother prescribes for him, as he develops a relationship with septuagenarian Maude (played by Ruth Gordon).
