Review: Harold and Maude

“Harold and Maude” is a quirky yet wonderful story about an unlikely friendship between a misanthropic young man Harold and a geriatric widow Maude. Amidst re-planting trees which deserve better lives, riding motor cycles, sunflower appreciation, tea time and singing Harold and Maude fall in love.

Although I have seen it many times before, seeing it on the big screen was a unique experience.

A wonderful film about friendship. Harold is a melancholic college graduate with a pushy mother. Maude is an 80 year old who has a lust for life, fun and sunflowers.

After meeting at a funeral they proceed to develop a wonderful and touching friendship.

With a soundtrack written and performed by Cat Stephens, this film about music, friendship and love is a classic to be enjoyed.
