"Hasn't lost its power to challenge and charm." - Jane Graham, the Guardian

In this cult classic, Harold (Bud Cort) is a dead-pan disillusioned 20-year-old obsessed with suicide, and Maude (Ruth Gordon) is a fun-loving 80-year-old eccentric. After the two meet at a funeral, they develop a relationship, in which they explore the meaning of life. Directed by Hal Ashby (Shampoo, Bound For Glory, Being There).
