HAROLD AND MAUDE (Theatrical Release USA 1971)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.6|5.0 Starsìììì

Harold and Maude turns into a surprisingly good classic that emphasizes living life to its fullest. It’s comedy with a twist of wit that is unique and refreshing. Don’t judge this book by its cover. It’s a good story from beginning to end.
