Better late than never I suppose, but Harold and Maude is just one of those films that makes you smile and think "yep, this film was made for me." Harold's multiple suicides never failed to make me laugh, especially the self-immolation one, and when he converted his classic '60's Jaguar into a mini-Hearse, I just had to applaud him. Hell even Maude was pretty funny, and I'm a person who dislikes the Manic Pixie Dream Girl stock. If you're into cult comedies, then this one is definitely for you.

my favorite movie. i feel in love with it on first viewing, and it became better and better the more I watched it. Can not wait for the Criterion release, that is coming in June.

this scene makes me smile every time
