Bad Romance...

Okay, watched Harold and Maude a couple days ago, and loved loved loved this movie. The kid is hilarious! Although I don't really get if he cannot die or what...and did his third date kill her self on accident? Can any one tell me that?!...I digress. I have a special place in my heart for dark comedies like Clue, and Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Harold and Maude has taken its place among them. I must admit the relationship between them is disturbing, all be it touching at time, I still think they could have left out the shot of them in bed together...

I loved the Maude character, and I can only hope that I have her out look on life when I am 80, minus the whole doctor assisted suicide...
I like the holocaust survivor element as well, I felt that one shot brought the whole film to a different level, and brought it back to home. She also reminds me a lot of April Curtis in all the best ways, which made me love her even more.

I would recommend this movie to anyone!!!

Chis' 5 words or less:
upsetting, funny, and suicidal

Take Maude's advice "Vice, Virtue. It's best not to be too moral. You cheat yourself out of too much *life*. Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then you're bound to live life fully."
