* I don't know why, but I like the movie's opening scene. I like how it starts at his feet, and you see very little of his face. It's mysterious and dark. You wonder, what is this guy doing. Yet, the music playing is lighthearted. Hmm …..
Also, the part starting at 8:05 is unusually erotic. Suggestive?
This movie literally changed my life. I was in my late 20's watching cable and I decided I wanted to be like Maude when I "grew up". In many ways I did! I'm so grateful they did this powerful life changing film because in many ways I needed a guide just like Harold did.
I've had lifelong health issues that not until recently I've finally started to over come. But only because I never gave up. I've also done a great deal of redefining peace and happiness in alignment with what is instead of what was lost.
I've long wondered what has become of Bud and whether he has found peace and happiness. I've long suspected that he really is a sensitive yet probably strong guy, yet I still have concerns about just how he doing as he went through a lot. So here's wishing the great Bud Cort all the joy and happiness he could ever want! And I thank him for his part in planting the first sign post that has led me out of darkness.
Truly an iconic performance, Mr. Cort. I will never tire of this lovely film.
It is a unique film. Thank you for your comment. Take care ~debbie
@@budcortappreciation6785 HI Bud I enjoyed this movie. ..Great performance!
Best ever. So so creative, passionat, sweet and funny!
Just watched it again, for the ???? time. never get tired of this movie.
The characters are so charming, and I like the photography as well. :)
Upon first discovering this movie back in the 1980's I fell madly in love w/it 100% in love. Such a great film such a great casting of this film as well in general. An from then forward have always lived anything I've ever seen of both Bud C or Ruth G !
An of course the biggest crush on Bud (first off & the most) I mean talk about an adorable looking guy !!! Like seriously OMG adorable !! An frigging Ruth too quite crush worthy just as much adorable ! An the both of them just have something in their voice (tone ? Pattern which they speak ? IDK TBH something) that just grabs me & my attention. They both happen to do that to me.
I was just viewing old (1980's) interviews w/Ruth on them an she is so wild an so very cool ! An if ya liked her disposition& character in this roll an are not too familiar w/her individually . Well check her out because if ya loved this character she played in this film then you will surely love the character that was Mrs Ruth in her real life I can assure you of that ! Talk about a beautiful positive attitude that is this beautiful fabulous woman.
What is most mind blowing an almost difficulty to wrap myself around. Is her talking about (in a interview filmed in mid 1980's) in it she was 85 years old an WoW what a firecracker beyond youthful is this woman's spirit an just so full of life an happy an proud SMH it's as if her joy is contagious. She in such way is incredibly inspiring.
You really don't see her as being as olds she was in these 1980's interviews till she is talking about acting jobs she worked back in 1915. , , , 😱 what ??!!
WoW ! She was born
October 30th 1896 !!!😮WoW !
Anyways I love to have found your channel that you have created !
Any big fan of the most beautiful Mr. Bud Cort is someone who's definitely AOK in my book !
Indeed & for sure ! !
I’m a film buff and seen many films I call my favorites (like around 200 I guess). But this film is not my favorite, it’s a personal film of mine. Seen it a hundred times and will a hundred more. So important to me. Thanks for the upload.
Yeees🙏👍✌️💯
I adore this movie :)
Yes. I really have to get out my DVD and watch it for the 2 hundredth time😊 he and Ruth Gordon, the music❤ the movie became very dear to me over 30 years ago.
Maude an old hippie before hipps were cool
Always doing her best to make the world a better place for those too come.

There's something very come hither about Maude's mannerisms in that scene
