Ernest Thompson’s contemporary American classic is a heartwarming and poignant work of a family struggling with age, rage, regret, love withheld, love unspoken, disappointment and ultimately (if they’re lucky) forgiveness, acceptance, and renewal.For decades, Norman and Ethel Thayer have spent their summers in a rustic lakeside family cabin in Maine. But this year is different. While Ethel remains a warm, ever-optimistic companion, Norman has started experiencing frightening lapses of memory. Things take an unexpected turn when their estranged daughter, Chelsea, arrives with her new fiancé and his teenage son in tow. Long-standing tensions between Norman and Chelsea rise to the surface, forcing them to confront past wounds and to attempt some kind of reconciliation before it’s too late.
Suffused with humor and deep emotional resonance, ON GOLDEN POND is a touching meditation on family bonds, second chances, and the enduring power of love.
