Have you ever heard the phrase, "That's a fez only a celebrity could love?" No? Well, that's because we (Lindsey) made it up and it's not really that great of a phrase. I'm trying to make the Fez happen, okay? This week is a special pop quiz episode where Kelly and Lindsey pick a topic to focus on and really do a deep dive. Because of the announcement that Kaitlyn Jenner is going to run for Governor of California, Lindsey does a quiz all about celebrities who take a stab at living in the world of politics. We talk Arnold, Stacey Dash and Al Franken just to name a few. Kelly decides to focus on the riveting and fascinating world of the Fez. That's right. That weird little hat that Shiners wear. Look. You have to let her do what she wants to do or it becomes a whole thing so just try to support it and understand, okay? Will Kelly know which star of 'Harold and Kumar go to White Castle' would become an associate director in the White House Office of Public Engagement during the Obama Administration? Will Lindsey know more about the Fez than just the fact that Shiners wear them and they were featured in the musical 'Bye Bye Birdie'? You'll have to listen to find out.

'age ain't nothin but a number' - R. KellyThis week the Janssens get seduced by the enduring baby-boomer magic of 'The Graduate', but also Hal Ashby's less successful 1971 cult hit 'Harold and Maude'. Both films take a darkly comedic look at romance, you see, focusing on a lost young guy and his more senior love interest, all soundtracked to the music of a folk-pop troubadour (Simon & Garfunkel in the former, Cat Stevens in the latter).Can we really go past the tremendous final shot of 'The Graduate', which has been Meg's desktop background since she was way too young to have watched 'The Graduate'?

The boys talk about the classic cult comedy 'Harold and Maude'
A battle of the Ryan Reynolds cameos this week as 2004s 'Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle' faces off against 2012s 'Ted'. A stoner comedy clash for the ages.

Harold and Maude is a 1971 American coming-of-age black comedy-drama film directed by Hal Ashby and released by Paramount Pictures. It incorporates elements of dark humor and existentialist drama. The plot revolves around the exploits of a young man named Harold Chasen (Bud Cort) who is intrigued with death. Harold drifts away from the life that his detached mother (Vivian Pickles) prescribes for him, and slowly develops a strong friendship, and eventually a romantic relationship, with a 79-year-old woman named Maude (Ruth Gordon) who teaches Harold about living life to its fullest and that life is the most precious gift of all. The film was based on a screenplay written by Colin Higgins and published as a novel in 1971. Filming locations in the San Francisco Bay Area included both Holy Cross Cemetery and Golden Gate National Cemetery, and the ruins of the Sutro Baths. Critically and commercially unsuccessful when originally released, the film developed a cult following and in 1983 began making a profit.[1][2] The film is ranked number 45 on the American Film Institute's list of 100 Funniest Movies of all Time and was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress in 1997, for being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant".[3] The Criterion Collection special-edition Blu-ray and DVD were released June 12, 2012.[4] EPISODE NOTES: (1:00) My guest Becca Faulkner covers her British childhood in the 80's, and her work at an independent cinema in Leeds in the early 90's, where she first encountered 'Harold and Maude', (8:00) British youth fashions then and now, (9:00) seeing movies by yourself, (9:30) Cat Stevens 'Don't Be Shy' and intro credits to 'Harold and Maude', (10:30) Colin Higgins and the origins of the screenplay for 'Harold and Maude', (12:00) black comedy and 'Harold and Maude' and 'The Graduate' from 1967, (14:00) the scene where Harold meets Maude, (18:00) browsing in video stores in the 80's and 90's, (19:00) Jack Black in 'High Fidelity', 'Harold and Maude' and timelessness, (20:00) Roger Ebert's negative review of 'Harold and Maude', (21:00) 'Rushmore' as descendant of 'Harold and Maude', but would it pass the "Teenager Litmus Test'?, (25:00) why did 'Harold and Maude' flop upon release and why has it become an iconic film since release?, (27:00) other 1971 film releases, including 'Klute', 'The French Connection', (31:00) revisiting the beloved films of our youth through the eyes of our children and note: don't do that or suffer what Becca has with showing her teens 'Ghostbusters' and 'Footloose', (33:00) insane and overwrought clip from 'Footloose' with incredible guitar riff, (34:00) clip of Liza Minelli singing 'Life Is A Cabaret' from 'Cabaret' with her usual subtlety and aplomb, (35:00) the love story between Harold and Maude compared to 'Amour', (36:00) Bud Cort in 'Harold and Maude', (37:00) Alternative Casting with Richard Dreyfuss, Bob Balaban, John Savage, and Elton John, (40:00) Bud Cort's excellent, uncredited cameo in Michael Mann's 'Heat', (42:00) Bud Cort's suicide origins speech from 'Harold and Maude', (49:00)Vivian Pickles' questionnaire scene, (52:00) Becs drinks water, (55:00) Cat Stevens on the use of his music in 'Harold and Maude' and the 'Miles From Nowhere' scene,
In our fifth episode, we discuss the 2004 cult classic stoner comedy 'Harold and Kumar go to White Castle' and debate whether or not it's more than just a film about two stoned adults trying to get fast food. We discuss the importance of representation in media, Without a Paddle, the ways in which Molly can relate to Kanye West and question whether or not Neil Patrick Harris played the titular character in the 2005 animated adaptation of Chicken Little.
Kicking off #AshbyAugust (where we discuss the films of Hal Ashby), Kieran and I discuss cult classic 'Harold and Maude', a film we both found to be one of the best of the decade.
James and Vicki go to see 'Harold and Maude' at the Charing Cross Theatre. Adapted from the seventies film, starring the wonderful Sheila Hancock and Bill Milner.

Episode 067 - Harold and Maude (1971) Episode 067 of the podcast sees Scott and Charlie review the blackest of comedies....Hal Ashby's 'Harold and Maude' from 1971. 'This cult classic pairs Bud Cort as a dead-pan disillusioned 20-year-old obsessed with suicide and a loveable Ruth Gordon as a fun-loving 80-year-old eccentric. They meet at a funeral, and develop a taboo romantic relationship, in which they explore the tired theme of the meaning of life with a fresh perspective.' Scott also takes a look at another Ashby movie from a couple of years later, 'Coming Home' starring Jane Fonda and Jon Voight. We have a brief chat about our recent screening of Taxi Driver with our good friends over at Rochester Kino.
