Harold & Maude came on the satellite the other night and I became gradually transfixed. I'd never been a great fan of Cat Stevens but his music was perfectly fitted to the story. I'd seen bits of the movie before but not the whole thing. I'd have remembered it.
Many movies of the era come across as dated and annoying but this one doesn't. It evokes emotions that are always relevant and the period elements become inconsequential.
I was struck looking at the IMDb rating chart that it rates almost equally across all ages and gender. It is rare to find a movie that we "Over 50's" and youths both find great appeal in.
