This man is 65 today -- I think it's worth a mention and time to show some gratitude. * I do not own any of this material * I handle it with care * All credit goes to the artists *
Bud Cort was NEVER ugly, Roguemaker. He was in an AWFUL automobile accident which completely changed the bone structure of his face. He had numerous painful operations and has never been pleased with the results. What remains of the sweet face of his earlier life are the beautiful blue eyes and his ability to express himself with that face. In addition, watch his hands. He uses them differently from the way any other actor uses hands. Bud Cort, if you're reading this? Know that you are admired, even loved. Your work has lightened the load of some of us. Thank you for it.
If he ever does see your comment I wanna chime in and say his performance in Harold and Maude literally saved my live when I was 16. I caught it on the Ovation channel the evening after my first and only suicide attempt. Ruth Gordon's and his performance really did save me from myself. I don't think I'd be here still if that film had not been playing that night. It gave me what I needed for so much more that was just around the corner. He will always have a huge piece of my heart.
I saw him up close & in person in 1974 (see my previous post), and he was handsome & elegant and so gracious. I admire him so much, particularly in the wake of his tragic accident. He is a beautiful man.
Wonderful tribute! I met Bud Cort in1974; he & Ruth Gordon came to Minneapolis to pay tribute to the now defunct Westgate Theatre ( which ran ONLY "Harold & Maude" for several years) and to attend "Tea with Harold & Maude", an event held at Dayton's department store that I was lucky enough to attend, as well. I spoke to Bud afterwards, and he was so charming & sweet and was amused that I had noticed & commented on his shoes: black penny loafers with dimes in each slot instead of pennies!
Thank you!!! Great video and soundtrack. Here it is another Valentines Day (Bud and I are now 75), and I made a beautiful Valentine heart box as a tribute to Bud and Ruth with their kiss photo surrounded by gold Dresden birds. I had such a crush on both Harold and Maude and wished everyone could live the empowering love Colin Higgins created in that story. I have never forgotten any of those involved in the film, especially Hal Ashby. I live where H&M was filmed and visit film locations all the time and think of them. I also decided that from now on watching H&M will be my Valentines Day tradition. Wish I could show Bud the sparkly heart box I made. Since I have not owned a TV since the 80s and do not go to the movies often, I just discovered all Bud's other movies which I can now search out (thanks for the excerpts). PS Colin and Hal's film makes me wish I could be a Maude to somebody, and that I could find a Maude to hang out with! PS Shout out to Cat Stevens, Vivian Pickles, and the entire cast and crew. You made all my life richer.
Love, LovE, LOVE this man. So talented, so unterrated. Wonderful tribute. THANKS. Wish someone woud write a script for him. Come on, Hollywood, he deserves it.
I obviously love "Harold and Maude", but my favourite Bud Cort movie is a little Canadian film called "Why Shoot the Teacher". Utterly charming and heartbreaking.
I've watched this 3 times in the last 20 years... great actors for the script. A show you won't forget, because no matter how odd a love affair may seem you realize the power can change someone. Maude definitely left Harold a gift he truly needed.
I do not know any of Bud's other film work I just love Harold & Maude and to me this was excellently casted. I loved the film and he did a wonderful job in breathing life into his character. The film would never have become the timeless clasic that it is without him. Thank you for this remarkable film treasure.
DAMN! Words cannot describe what this man does to me. At the sight of him, at the sound of his voice: my hearts just soars! I get a rush all through me! I'm just completely drunk on Bud!
Watching this right now & it’s cracking me up! These 2. Wow! 🤪 🤣 Ruth Gordon one of my favorite actress back in the day! I’ve meet ppl that had her mannerisms 😆 God bless them both. Miss her acting. Hope Bud Cort is well.
Harold and Maude ranks high up on the artistic achievement scale along with any Fellini movie ever made. It is true American art thanks to the brilliant star power of Bud Cort and Ruth Gordon. Glad to have them in the Universe. Shine on!
I love so much Bud Cort since i was a child. His characters Harold Chansen in Harold And Maude and Private Boone in MASH have absolutely everything in common with myself in real life.🤩😍😘🥰❤
He was also the viioce of Edgar the computer in the excellent but sadly forgotten technology musical rom-com from the 80s called ELECTRICDREAMS. You can watch it right here on You Tube!
what movie is it in the very beginning? i swear you could get lost in that smile and those eyes. he was naturally funny too... love when he sees maude modeling and makes that face and says maude haha. he was so handsome. also that smooth voice. i admit he is my 70s movie crush haha.
Simon is a ginger. to tell the truth, i have no idea who Simon Pegg is (your comment got me interested in seeing what he looks like), but i know Bud Cort from the Harold and Maude movie.
nowvoyagerNE They same similar facial features. I remember looking at the cover of the movie Hot Fuzz and at first glance I thought Simon Pegg was Bud Cort.
+GenevieveThornton Yup .. you're right. Spoke without rechecking. It's actually Brewster McCloud. Thats Shelly Duvall and the wing suit gave it away. Brewster McCloud is a crazy movie I highly recommend it.
+Lee Hoffnung That's true. He was in an AWFUL automobile accident which completely changed the bone structure of his face. He had numerous painful operations and has never been pleased with the results. What remains of the sweet face of his earlier life are the beautiful blue eyes and his ability to express himself with that face.
I've got nothing against Bud Cort, but he always creeped me out as an actor (especially in his earlier films before he grew up a little). He seemed very odd and cringe-worthy in most of his roles. I always thought he would have been perfect for Damien II: The Omen.

Swamp Lady wow soooo beautiful!! Glad u stayed! 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾
Most importantly, he is a cool guy.
@@MamaGatorSo beautiful. Can I ask you your age ? Did you watch it in the seventies
I saw him up close & in person in 1974 (see my previous post), and he was handsome & elegant and so gracious. I admire him so much, particularly in the wake of his tragic accident.
He is a beautiful man.
His voice is still the same. So soft and full of innocence
I fell in live with him 45 years ago and I still love him. Just watched Brewster McCloud. What a great character!

I cant recall how MANY times i went to see it there while i memorized every moment.
I lost count, as well.

Bud Cort will always be so special, personality, looks, I think of him as he was in Harold and Maude, that’s enough to last a lifetime for me.
Geez... He was Gorgeous! (to me) What beautiful blue eyes...
Harold and Maud will always be my # 1 film and then MASCH !!!!!! Bud Cort, I bow to your wonderful and everlasting roles !!!!!
I obviously love "Harold and Maude", but my favourite Bud Cort movie is a little Canadian film called "Why Shoot the Teacher". Utterly charming and heartbreaking.
Yes! And I still have the movie poster. I thought I was the only one who knew that film!
"What is a beach?"
"A female dog."
The full movie is now here on youtube. 😉
@@eily_b Awesome!! Thanks for letting me know...I keep forgetting that I can watch movies on YT. 😃

I am still always looking for a yellow umbrella!

One of the best movies ever!
Happy birthday Brewster, may your wings always carry you high.
Love you Mr. Bud Cort
Awesome tribute and video. Bud Cort has something special. :)
What a lovely tribute. There is something sexy about him. :)
Unfortunately bud was one of those actors who had success in the early 70s but was almost forgotten by 1990
Love him so...thank you
Great mix. Every time I see him listed, I know I have to watch the film. Missed seeing a clip from Life Aquatic, which he was great in.
Wonderful tribute. Thank you. I love Bud Cort but I am missing clips from him in Million Dollar Hotel, Dogma and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. 😉
Cool! Thanks so much!
Watching Harold and Maude
what movie is it in the very beginning? i swear you could get lost in that smile and those eyes. he was naturally funny too... love when he sees maude modeling and makes that face and says maude haha. he was so handsome. also that smooth voice. i admit he is my 70s movie crush haha.
Brewster McCloud!
It's great, guy!
What film is the thumbnail with Bud Cort wearing sunglasses?
walter cox approved
he feels dirty and filled with evil in Criminal Minds.
He was in a movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger?!
Is it just me or does Bud Cort look similar to Simon Pegg.
I remember getting their faces confused once. Both brilliant actors.
Simon is a ginger. to tell the truth, i have no idea who Simon Pegg is (your comment got me interested in seeing what he looks like), but i know Bud Cort from the Harold and Maude movie.
nowvoyagerNE
They same similar facial features. I remember looking at the cover of the movie Hot Fuzz and at first glance I thought Simon Pegg was Bud Cort.
let's not forget Magical Balloon!
Awesome tribute!! Which movie is the first scene from?
+GenevieveThornton Harold and Maude
+GooseGanja Nope, I've seen that film and that is definitely not from it.
+GenevieveThornton Yup .. you're right. Spoke without rechecking. It's actually Brewster McCloud. Thats Shelly Duvall and the wing suit gave it away. Brewster McCloud is a crazy movie I highly recommend it.
GooseGanja Thank you! I finally tracked it down and will watch it. Anything with Bud Cort. Btw, I love Calvin & Hobbes!!!
+GenevieveThornton But he is a fine actor.
He and Michael Keaton could pass as brothers.
U left out Mr Solenko in "Heat"
what movie is this from @ 2:55 ? I thought Vivian Pickles only starred in one usa made move?
That scene is from 'Ted and Venus'.
It's Gena Rowlands
BUD CORT LOOKS LIKE MICHAEL J FOX. SAME FACE WITH OUT THE PARKINSON
What is he dead
this guy played the toymay in stas
Where does 1:38 to 1:48 come from?
00:9-0:16 what's that movie?
Brewster McCloud
Bud Cort should've played John Rambo
Toy Man
The music ruins the video. Will people ever learn?
I had heard he was in a bad accident.....was that just Hollywood blah blah?
I believe he was in a car accident. :(
+Lee Hoffnung That's true. He was in an AWFUL automobile accident which completely changed the bone structure of his face. He had numerous painful operations and has never been pleased with the results.
