As a comedy, it hangs at the beginning. Reminds me of a man named Ove.

A Man Called Ove Decides to Die (2015)
8.9
2015 / Sweden / Drama / Hannes Helm / Ralph Lasgarde Baja Pass

The whole film is shrouded in the curtain of war, revealing the depression of people under the fear of war. The salute of the uncle's broken hand is funny and ironic. Fragments of tombstones, survivors of concentration camps. Empty shot of the police.

The young master of the upper class and the old woman who survived the concentration camp fell in love. The director deliberately widened the age difference and arranged for the old man to take poison on his birthday. This is love that defies power and time.

In the end, the young master ditched the hearse and turned to music. Those lucky survivors, just enjoy life. Rebels of high society are always fearless, as long as you do not rebel against your class. just enjoy life

It's a good comedy with a mix of love, satire, humor, death, war, rebellion

As for love, Nixon, Freud, and priests can't affect it.

Harlow and Maud (1971)

    This kind of him meets that kind of her, and only this kind of him meets that kind of her, and there will be such an intoxicating love story.

    Sure enough, it was a film from the 1960s to the 1970s, and the music was a ballad of "the future is very beautiful", with a strong hippie flavor. I thought it was a very cult, but it turned out to be very pure inspiration, borrowing a little evil. Well, too much inspirational inspiration is not so inspirational. But the main character is still cute. PS: A strange thing: I remember that this film used to be in the bottom of 250, but now it has a score of 8.1 but it is not ranked

Harold and Maude quotes

  • Harold: Maude.

    Maude: Hmm?

    Harold: Do you pray?

    Maude: Pray? No. I communicate.

    Harold: With God?

    Maude: With *life*.

  • Maude: Vice, Virtue. It's best not to be too moral. You cheat yourself out of too much *life.* Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then you're bound to live life fully.
