The 1971 cult classic HAROLD AND MAUDE IS A BEAUTIFUL FILM ABOUT LOVE,
death obsession and trying to find your way in life. Join us for a
special film screening at Phoenix Center for the Arts' beautiful Third
Street Theatre.
The 1971 cult classic HAROLD AND MAUDE is a beautiful film about love,
death obsession and trying to find your way in life. Directed by Hal
Ashby, young HAROLD (Bud Cort) lives a charmed life, but is obsessed
with faking his death to raise the ire of his rich mom who would
rather buy her son expensive cars and find a suitable wife for him
then spend time with him or listen to what he needs and wants. That
changes when HAROLD MEETS THE FREE-loving MAUDE (Ruth Gordon) who has
lived a life HAROLD CAN ONLY DREAM OF. She's 60 years older than
HAROLD BUT HE FINALLY FINDS SOMEONE HE CAN RELATE TO. With a
soundtrack filled with wonderful _Cat Stevens_ songs, Harold & Maude
is a favorite amongst a few PHX Film Collective members.
MAUDE: "_Everyone has the right to make an ass out of themselves. You
just can't let the world judge you too much."_
HAROLD & MAUDE PRODUCER CHARLES MULVEHILL and actress SHARI SUMMERS
will join PHX Film COLLECTIVE FOR A Q&A after the film. Mulvehill and
Summers met during filming and have been married since. Summers was
one of the girlfriends HAROLD'S MOM TRIED TO SET HIM UP WITH. Both
Charles and Shari live in PHOENIX. They volunteer with the MAYDAY PIT
BULL RESCUE & ADVOCACY [https://www.maydaypitbullrescue.org/]
nonprofit organization in Phoenix and a donation will be made to the
group to thank them for joining us.
