On Golden Pond

1981, ITC Entertainment

This is undoubtedly the most difficult film for me to watch, because the relationship between Jane and Henry Fonda's characters mirrored the relationship between me and my father to an uncomfortable degree. I've only ever seen it once, in the theater, and it was embarrassing—I sobbed while my date sat cringing at the sight of me. I would give the film a top score were it not so painful for me to watch. That shouldn't stop you from seeing it, though!
