Hal Ashby's "Harold and Maude" famously transcends multiple film genres, and emerges as one of the finest works of American cinema. At once a hilarious comedy, a tender romantic drama, a provocative and inspiring existential examination, and a reason to hit your local used record score (just try not to dig up an old Cat Stevens record after seeing this film), "Harold and Maude" is a celebrated work of art, and has been honored with accolades such as:
