Too few people perceive this one as romantic. I think they need to grow older and be with someone for awhile.

An aging couple Ethel and Norman Thayer ("Ethel Thayer, I almost didn't marry you cause it sounded like a lisp."), who spend each summer at their home on Golden Pond. They are visited by daughter Chelsea with her fiancé, where they drop off his rebelious son. The story explores the relationship, among other things the relationship that she had with her father growing up, as well as what can happen to a couple in the later years of a long marriage. Along the way, was a touching bond between the young boy and the old man.
