Harold & Maude (1971)

October 04, 2020

Directed by Hal Ashby.

I was in my mid-twenties when I first saw this film. It’s just as wonderful now as it was then.

Another May to September romance.

In my late teens and twenties, there were films that proved instrumental in shaping the way I think about the world - or at least reinforced my world view. Twenty plus years later, I am interested in revisiting these films and discovering ones that I missed back then, or slept through, or was too drunk to remember having watched. Why would I do this? I want to be reminded of what stood out as important to me then. I also am curious to see how my opinions and thoughts might have changed, or not, with time and experience. And, to reconnect with some classic films.
