I saw a trailer for it on youtube and it looks really interesting.

It is an interesting film - it is said that it was quite daring at the time it was made. Although I don't found either the film nor the subject daring - found it a very sweet film. Ruth Gordon is at her best in Harold and Maude.

So if you can - I guess they show in in the US on TCM too - do see the film

Harold and Maude is one of my favorite films. It is offbeat, quirky and totally delightful. Ruth Gordon is wonderful in it. It's sad and funny and sweet and crazy. In a nutshell, it's about an old lady and a young man who fall in love and she teaches him how to live.
Try to rent it.

CFK: So we all heard about Betty Bacall, I guess? Pretty rotten news, especially following so closely on Robin Williams. What a lousy week. Watched To Have and Have Not as tribute tonight. Aug 13, 2014 0:25:58 GMT -5

Fran: I think the problem with actresses such as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford was that they played SEX SYMBOLS and did woman movies. They were sexy in their day and were the main love interests in the movie. When they got older those woman type movies were dead Jun 26, 2017 16:56:41 GMT -5

Fran: Bette Davis made very different movies from Katherine Hepburn Hepburn. Bette was sexy. So was Crawford. They made woman type movies. Hepburn was the masculine feminist. When their looks went, so did their careers. Hepburn was never that type. Jun 26, 2017 16:57:53 GMT -5

Angela: Personally, I like Bette Davis best she was "a woman for all season" she didn't mince words she did the role without having to apologize for creativity she musters to do the work. Also, she could look different without worrying about her appearance. Mar 14, 2019 19:54:07 GMT -5

Angela: Personally, I felt Bette Davis was the "woman for all seasons" since she used all her creativity to make her artwork. As for Katherine she seems to sound the same - her voice didn't change. Granted she was good in Shakespeare which I give credit. Mar 14, 2019 19:56:35 GMT -5

SJS: Bette had a mostly latent tendency to ham, and she admitted it. She really appreciated a director who could get her to tone it down. She lost respect for a director who would let her get away with it. But she took chances that most actresses wouldn't. Apr 15, 2020 14:12:32 GMT -5
