A delicious, heartbreaking comedy that's not afraid of emotion and sadness, about thelove affair between a death obsessed 19 year old, and a life obsessed 80 year old.Amazing performances by Bud Cort and Ruth Gordon, not to mention the wholesupporting cast.Beautifully shot, and with transcendent use of Cat Steven's songs asscore.A film I simply never tire of seeing again.This is finally being re-issued, on blu-ray and DVD by Criterion, so ifhistory is any judge of quality, I'd wait for those. You may pay a fewdollars more, but will likely get vastly improved picture and soundquality, as well as more and better extras.
