Boone in the director’s hit 1970 anti-war satire “M*A*S*H.” That same year, Altman also gave him the title role in his “Brewster McCloud,” an eccentric fable about a Houston loner determined to build a pair of wings and take flight.\n\nCort’s defining role came the following year in director Hal Ashby’s “Harold and Maude.” As Harold Parker Chasen, a wealthy, death-obsessed young man fixated on staging elaborate mock suicides, Cort brought a wounded, wide-eyed earnestness that gradually softened into wonder as his Harold falls in love with Maude, a feisty, life-affirming Holocaust survivor played by Ruth Gordon, then a recent Oscar winner for “Rosemary’s Baby.” The film was not a major success on its initial release but steadily grew into a midnight-movie favorite and international cult touchstone.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
