I will try to find Harold and Maude somewhere so I know better!It is a great film, as I said, maybe it just got me in a weird mood, but it touched me!

I'm glad to hear that you ...Nice review, Aziza. I'm glad to hear that you were stirred and moved by this one. When I read that the central characters like to attend funerals, I thought of Harold and Maude, which I watched (off and on) quite recently. <br /><br />It's about a young man (late teens) who has an infatuation with death - the funerals and thinking up elaborate ways of faking his own death. He meets Maude, an 80 year-old, at a funeral and they fall in love. It's weird but hilarious. Anyway, it doesn't sound too much like that.<br /><br />Not a big Gus Van Sant film, though I did like Good Will Hunting and Elephant!Andy Bucklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15655573933693289124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3759165361533454798.post-25064485604785641972011-10-19T23:30:36.102+01:002011-10-19T23:30:36.102+01:00I haven't seen Harold and Maude, so I can'...I haven't seen Harold and Maude, so I can't really say, but it's a good movie!
