Genres: Drama, Cult, Comedy / Black Comedy

Feat. Bud Cort, Ruth Gordon
Aroview: Director Hal Ashby's much-adored black comedy about a wealthy but lonely teenager who finds a soulmate in the form a 79-year-old woman.
Unafraid to confront suicidal ideation and push the boundaries of a May-September romance, this subversive yet sweet film boasts a sprightly, adorable Ruth Gordon (also memorable in Rosemary's Baby), and many wonderful songs by Cat Stevens.
A major cult film that famously played for three years continuously at one American cinema, it is one of the single most influential films on US independent cinema.

4 stars (Very Good) Fruity and borderline but sincere and sweet. ~Baby
5 stars (Exceptional) Finds the true meaning of attraction. One short scene also serves as a reminder too of the idiocy of the Vietnam war ~RW
4 stars (Very Good) The casting, not only of the odd couple but those in support is excellent - all are on the same wavelength and come to the party - they do justice to the offbeat screenplay. ~Tubbs
