For Norman and Ethel Thayer, this summer On Golden Pond is filled with conflict and resolution. When their daughter Chelsea arrives, the family is forced to renew the bonds of love and overcome the generational friction that has existed for years. Norman must find his way through his anger and fear of growing old, while Chelsea struggles to rebuild their relationship. Ethel's consistent support of her "knight in shining armor" is inspirational in its simplicity. This is a movie to ponder and always keep in your heart.

Summary: WONDERFUL FILM! FONDA'S LAST ROLE IS GRAND!
Comment: I thought I had seen this film at one time or another, but when I sat down to watch this film with my parents, wife, aunt(who requested to watch it) and uncle, I realized that I had never seen this film until now. Fonda & Hepburn give wonderful performances in this very real sometimes funny and sometimes heartbreaking film.
I found this film very moving, as my parents and aunt and uncle are getting into their 80's with my dad, who will be 82 in Novenber. It's a great tribute to two great actors and to the story of the inevitability of getting old......you have to keep on going, until you can't go any more! Some of the dialogue seems a little corny and forced, but it's really not enough to tarnish such a good movie! The film also deals with different relationships in this family and having real life daughter Jane Fonda cast as the daughter of her father's character in the film adds to the realism. The DVD transfer is very good and there are some worthwhile extras including a making off the film, Kathern Hepburn bio and commentary.

Summary: A family divided.
Comment: On Golden Pond is a sentimental favorite for me. Henry Fonda and Jane Fonda are just heartbreaking together, you could feel the tension and sadness in their peformances. Katharine Hepburn is a gem as well, I really like her in this film, her vulnerable side is her ace in the hole. This film won best picture and Henry Fonda received his first Oscar shortly before he passed away. On Golden Pond shall move you to tears, get the tissues ready!
