Harold is very inventive when it comes to his hobby: staging his suicide - on a rope, in a pool, in a massacre, by explosion. The main beneficiary (as his psychiatrist puts it) is his rich and domineering mother. His second hobby is no less morbid: he attends funerals of people he doesn't know. He shares this predilection with Maude, who is by no means morbid but extremely fun-loving. A love story develops between the two. By the way, she is sixty years older than him.
