Jane Fonda said that this was the happiest moment of her life. She said she was praying obsessedly for her father to win which he did. She actually bought the rights of this movie so that her father can win an Oscar. She writes it down beautifully in her book My Life So Far.

Last night I watched “On Golden Pond” for the umpteenth time when it was offered on You Tube. So it was especially meaningful to see this video offered for me to view on You Tube tonight. I am 87. My husband will be 90 in February. We’ve been married over 67 years. The first time I’d seen “On Golden Pond,” I’d thought 80 and late 60’s were OLD. Now I have 2 sons in their 60s, and Norman and Ethel don’t seem so old to me.

@@christiandupuis3261 Took the words right out of my mouth. Good shout. I tell you christian, having watched once upon a time in the west over 200 times, being my favorite film of all time, there are two truly remarkable inputs from Henry in that film which demonstrate his incredible acting skills,... And whilst they are two separate scenes, only one word in total is spoken!!! The first scene is when Harmonica tells Frank he will never be a business man like Morton. Frank displays vulnerability and simply asks 'why?'. He totally immerses himself in character, realising he is a hired gun, albeit a good one, and the truth hits home. The second scene is the last two seconds of his role, indeed, his character's life. He has lost the shoot out, he cannot believe he has lost, and in his dying moments he simply HAS to know who the hell is Harmonica. As he takes his final breaths, with the harmonica unceremoniously shoved back in his mouth, he rolls his eyes and nods slightly whilst in pain, with almost a half smile in acknowledgement and understanding of the long overdue payback. All with a roll of the eyes. Two scenes, one word. You were right to ensure O.U.A.T.I.T.W should be acknowledged when reviewing his awesome catalogue. Thank you for that.

I just watched it, too. He absolutely blew me away, from his way of speaking to to every movement he made, how he stood, how his eyes filled with tears in the scene where he tells Ethel he got lost in the woods, his absolutely moving words during his heart attack, and how he hid his face under the hat to not show Jane his tears. But the best scene was with Billy on the boat before the accident, when he said he was alright but his eyes told the sad truth. Overall a performance that completely captured every needed emotion to a t and filled the character with enough life to be both touching and believable. Holy shit, was he great. Along with Paul Newman, the only actor i can come up with to turn his last performance into his best.

Jane bought the property of on golden pond so that she could give her dad a role to possibly win an Oscar . What a wonderful daughter. If you have a father and daughter who have an impasse one would expect the parent to reach out and make amends . The lesson of on golden pond is that the responsibility lies on the shoulders of the one who is capable of reaching out to start the reconciliation . Instead of waiting for a lifetime Jane reached out and has that memory that no amount of oscars or money can replace. Yes Henry won but Jane won even more . She did right by a father that had a hard time expressing his emotion .

Going back years, I loved his performance in 12 Angry Men and The Boston Strangler. Peter Fonda's Easy Rider was a Hippie Classic. I loved Bridget Fonda's small part in The Godfather Part 3. Jane is someone I admired so much as a Actress and a Human Being. First Film: Tall Story with Anthony Perkins, a long list of great performances, 2 Oscars, my favorites: Klute and Coming Home. A Great Lady. I call her Lady Jane because she is like Royalty to me.

When I later saw "On Golden Pond" on television, it resonated with me, because Fonda's character (Norman Thayer) had a relationship with the boy in the movie that was reminiscent of my relationship to my own curmudgeonly (to put it nicely) grandfather. Later, of course, I saw many of Henry Fonda's films (and Jane's and Peter's) and understood his incredible screen presence and authenticity. A well-deserved award.

Jane talked her dad into playing On Golden Pond and he said he wouldn't play in it without Katherine Hepburn -- so they asked her and she said yeah. Katherine and Henry had never met Katharine. So they thought it would be a long shot and they were surprised she said yes. I do believe Katherine ended up wining her fourth Oscar in this movie and she made light of it to Jane. She marveled in the fact that she had one more than Jane -- but who knows Jane is still acting and she could very well tie Katherine Hepburn (RIP).

I remember watching this in 1982. I was 6 years old then and this was my Father's favorite movie of all time. My Dad died of cancer in November of 2021. We were always very close. Thank'you, Jane Fonda. This was an incredible gift you gave to your father and it did get him his Oscar. You were way too humble at the time. This film was also an incredible gift to my Father and myself. It's one of my favorite films.
Henry Fonda's performance was beautiful and perfect! At the time not much was known about dementia/Alzheimer's. The film made me cry as a teenager at the time it came out. It still makes me cry now in my 50s with a mother with dementia. Just a wonderful movie and performances.

Henry Fonda knocked it out of the park, again, in On Golden Pond. His portrayal of an older man opposite Katharine Hepburn is a master class in acting. Well deserved.
Henry Fonda richly deserved to win the Oscar for On Golden Pond; it was also the culmination of an extraordinary career on stage and screen with memorable performances in Ford's Young Mr. Lincoln and The Grapes Of Wrath, Wellman's The Ox Bow Incident, Lumet's Twelve Angry Men and Ford and Leroy's Mister Roberts.

@@christiandupuis3261 Took the words right out of my mouth. Good shout. I tell you christian, having watched once upon a time in the west over 200 times, being my favorite film of all time, there are two truly remarkable inputs from Henry in that film which demonstrate his incredible acting skills,... And whilst they are two separate scenes, only one word in total is spoken!!! The first scene is when Harmonica tells Frank he will never be a business man like Morton. Frank displays vulnerability and simply asks 'why?'. He totally immerses himself in character, realising he is a hired gun, albeit a good one, and the truth hits home. The second scene is the last two seconds of his role, indeed, his character's life. He has lost the shoot out, he cannot believe he has lost, and in his dying moments he simply HAS to know who the hell is Harmonica. As he takes his final breaths, with the harmonica unceremoniously shoved back in his mouth, he rolls his eyes and nods slightly whilst in pain, with almost a half smile in acknowledgement and understanding of the long overdue payback. All with a roll of the eyes. Two scenes, one word. You were right to ensure O.U.A.T.I.T.W should be acknowledged when reviewing his awesome catalogue. Thank you for that.

He was not nominated for Mr. Roberts or Young Mr. Lincoln or Drums Along The Mohawk or The Oxbow Incident, or 12 Angry Men. He still is the best Abe Lincoln ever. So glad he finally got his award.

But the best scene was with Billy on the boat before the accident, when he said he was alright but his eyes told the sad truth. Overall a performance that completely captured every needed emotion to a t and filled the character with enough life to be both touching and believable. Holy shit, was he great. Along with Paul Newman, the only actor i can come up with to turn his last performance into his best.

No matter how good the part, when you are cast across from Kate Hepburn, you know its going to take a miracle to be seen and heard. It does not actually take a miracle, but it takes the performance of your life. Most of this movie I was watching Henry, was moved by Henry, and felt the bittersweet pride of feeling truly loved by others, while in cognitive and physical decline. It was stunning work.

Jane bought the property of on golden pond so that she could give her dad a role to possibly win an Oscar . What a wonderful daughter. If you have a father and daughter who have an impasse one would expect the parent to reach out and make amends . The lesson of on golden pond is that the responsibility lies on the shoulders of the one who is capable of reaching out to start the reconciliation . Instead of waiting for a lifetime Jane reached out and has that memory that no amount of oscars or money can replace. Yes Henry won but Jane won even more . She did right by a father that had a hard time expressing his emotion .

Going back years, I loved his performance in 12 Angry Men and The Boston Strangler. Peter Fonda's Easy Rider was a Hippie Classic. I loved Bridget Fonda's small part in The Godfather Part 3. Jane is someone I admired so much as a Actress and a Human Being. First Film: Tall Story with Anthony Perkins, a long list of great performances, 2 Oscars, my favorites: Klute and Coming Home.

Henry Fonda's performance was brilliant and excellent in On Golden Pond.
This was the first Oscars ceremony I remember watching any part of. My grandma tried to explain to me who Henry Fonda was, as this was literally the end of his career and life. When I later saw "On Golden Pond" on television, it resonated with me, because Fonda's character (Norman Thayer) had a relationship with the boy in the movie that was reminiscent of my relationship to my own curmudgeonly (to put it nicely) grandfather. Later, of course, I saw many of Henry Fonda's films (and Jane's and Peter's) and understood his incredible screen presence and authenticity. A well-deserved award.

Classy and moving. He should have also won back in 1940 for Grapes of Wrath, his Tom Joad was a character of tremendous depth and humanity. Henry Fonda died a few months after this Oscar win, as did Geraldine Page after finally winning Best Actress (on her 8th nomination) in 1986.
Henry Fond is the best male actor in my movie watching history.
Ohhhhh My...that hair! Why did we all think that looked so good?!?! Jane is a wonderful speaker. I remember seeing this live.

"Why did we all think that looked so good?!?!" It's because we looked similar. ;-)
泣ける…😢仲直りも出来たし最高の瞬間❗☝️
To this day I watch this movie And one of my favorite parts is the very beginning when the piano starts it brings back so many many memories. This movie I can feel and smell the past so much just by watching it and i really don't know why but thank you to all that made it.
This is the only father and daughter Henry and Jane Fonda as they won the first and only Oscar of their movie called On Golden Pond as I am dedicating this Oscar winning film to my old school friends who are both sisters as I hope to see them both again very soon to Chris and Hester from Billyxxxxx
I can’t imagine trying to play Norman Thayer, Jr. after Henry Fonda’s brilliant version. It couldn’t be improved.
So beautiful and elegant stage those days
Jane talked her dad into playing On Golden Pond and he said he wouldn't play in it without Katherine Hepburn -- so they asked her and she said yeah. Katherine and Henry had never met Katharine. So they thought it would be a long shot and they were surprised she said yes. I do believe Katherine ended up wining her fourth Oscar in this movie and she made light of it to Jane. She marveled in the fact that she had one more than Jane -- but who knows Jane is still acting and she could very well tie Katherine Hepburn (RIP).

Naomi Jones - can’t stand bobbing head Katherine & Hanoi Jane - loved Henry Fonda though
I think this was the first and only time that I remember that the list of nominees was read without mentioning the picture they starred in.
A well-deserved award for Henry Fonda for an unbelievable and an awesome acceptance speech by Jane. You can tell she did love her father, but weren't there some issues and problems in their relationship?

@@robertfreedman6651 Yes I think the troubled relationship was exaggerated to a degree. Look at the children of some others stars in comparasion.
Henry Fonda. Warren Beatty. Burt Lancaster. Paul Newman. .....

Poor Dudley Moore seemed like the outcast...
A long overdue win! He should have won for _The Grapes of Wrath_ for his remarkable performance.

He should have won for 12 Angry Men, My Darling Clementine, Ox-Bow Incident, Mr. Roberts and about ten more film. It all just shows much about this award. It is too unfair.
Shes so poised and elegant. I love it
