Description
“On Golden Pond” follows a retired professor, almost 80 years old and with an ironic sense of humour. The old man has a perfect lifelong partner who is 10 years his younger and has cheerful characteristics. Their middle-aged and divorced daughter, who is somewhat estranged from her father, visits them at a lake called Golden Pond with her dentist boyfriend and her son in the summer. Although the boy and the professor can hardly get along at first, eventually they come to enjoy each other’s company as grandfather and grandson. The rift between the father and the daughter also begins to close.
When summer is over, the daughter goes home with her boyfriend and her son. When life seems to have returned to normal, the professor suffers a heart attack. The sense of imminent death is never more real, but this also makes the couple more aware of how much they love each other. Time may be running out, but they have had a wonderful life together.
