TWO YEARS, ONE THEATER: THE CULT FILM THAT WOULDN'T DIE

(SECOND EDITION - WITH A DOZEN NEW PHOTOS)

 

The studio wanted it buried. Critics dismissed it. But when Harold and Maude arrived at Minneapolis' Westgate Theater, something magical happened.

 

The quirky dark comedy about a death-obsessed teen and an 80-year-old free spirit found its home. And stayed. And stayed. And stayed some more-until angry neighbors started protesting.

 

This true story captures the remarkable phenomenon that transformed a box-office disaster into one of the most beloved cult films of all time.

 

Inside this captivating chronicle, you'll discover:

• How a single theater kept Harold and Maude alive when everyone else had given up on it

• The joyful celebrations when stars Ruth Gordon and Bud Cort visited their devoted fans

• The superfan who saw the film so many times he became friends with Ruth Gordon herself

• The hilarious neighborhood protests demanding a change after endless months of the same film

• Rare, never-before-published photographs of the theater, the celebrations, and the protests

 

Before streaming, before home video, before "cult classic" was even a term-there was a small theater that wouldn't let a strange little film die. This is their story.
