I'll be buying this the instant it arrives.

The features list doesn't mention any deleted scenes or extra footage, but my DVD of Harold and Maude includes the theatrical trailer, and it has some tantalizing glimpses of scenes that didn't make the final cut, most memorably, a couple of shots of Bud Cort and Ruth Gordon sharing a really passionate snog. I have wondered if this was deleted from the film out of concern that seeing a young man passionately kiss an elderly woman would be too off-putting. I hope this wasn't the case, and I'm glad I have the moment preserved in abbreviated form in the trailer, but it's a shame this didn't make it into the movie.

How I love Harold and Maude.
