About
20-year-old dead-pan suicide-obsessed Harold and loveable fun-loving 80-year-old eccentric Maude meet at a funeral, developing a taboo romantic relationship in which they explore the tired theme of the meaning of life with a fresh perspective.
A classic cult film that features one of the screen's most unlikely pairs, it defies everything you've ever seen or known about screen lovers.
Our monthly Moviedrome screenings bring you the chance to discover - or rediscover! - a choice cut of cinema that's cult, classic or somewhere in-between. The films are hand-picked by our resident film expert George Cromack, who introduces each screening. Moviedrome is a mix of guilty pleasures you never tire of seeing and overlooked gems you'll wonder why you've never seen!
‘Hal Ashby’s (Shampoo) dark comedy drama faltered on first release yet quickly earned a long-standing cult following and remains very much in a league of its own.’ - George Cromack
‘Spiky, strange and makes you think, the more times you see it - the more you see something new... if you haven’t seen it, right that wrong.’ - Mark Kermode
Please note in the Moviedrome leaflet there is a typo, the correct date is 4 July, not 14th!
