Just The Way You Are


The girl with the leg brace. That’s how people have seen Susan Berlanger all her life. But while on a ski trip in the French Alps, she conceals her crippled leg in a cast. Now, people won’t see her as someone to be pitied. Or avoided. Or coddled.VCWBA088034 0 attracted to her. Susan is a professional flautist with a ballet-company orchestra and is given a chance to travel to Europe for a concert tour, which she is more than happy to accept. Since she has doubts about relationships (do these men feel sorry for her?), she puts a cast on her leg and goes to a ski resort to find out what it is like to be treated normally by others. Once there, she meets a captivating photographer (Michael Ontkean) and falls in love — but does not tell him the truth about her leg. Making matters even worse, a wealthy Frenchman courting Susan’s roommate at the resort is an amputee — he lost a leg in an automobile accident. Sooner or later, Susan will have to come to grips with her deception, her forthcoming marriage, and her interest in the photographer. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

On Golden Pond

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011

On Golden Pond


Based on the play by Ernest Thompson, ON GOLDEN POND tells the deceptively simple tale of one family’s summer. The story centers around the bickering but loving relationship between Ethel and Norman Thayer (Katharine Hepburn and Henry Fonda), an elderly couple who are spending their 48th summer at their New England country home and celebrating Norman’s 80th birthday. When their independent, insecure daughter, Chelsea (Jane Fonda), and her new boyfriend, Bill Ray (Dabney Coleman), come for Norman’s birthday, they also end up asking the couple to look after Billy Ray (Doug McKeon), Bill’s teenage son, while they travel to Europe. Over the summer, Norman becomes closer to Billy Ray than he has ever been to his daughter, sparking Chelsea’s long-repressed resentment when she returns. In this beautifully filmed story, there are many things going on along the surface of Golden Pond, including the presence of the loons–who represent all things wonderful about their summer house and their life to Ethel. Director Mark Rydell elicits deeply touching performances from his cast (particularly Henry Fonda in his final screen appearance), and the dialogue of Thompson’s script is equally graceful. The odds were against this decidedly quiet, small ensemble piece when it was released in 1981, but the timeless material and the confident direction triumphed.
