[Rosee2807]

... why has this got so many dislikes?! Absolutely beautiful piece of music!

[SqueakerThePinkKitty]

315 dislikes and 82 likes??? Its sad how they never know the true beauty behind this music!

[BadSneakers]

@SqueakerThePinkKitty Something is going on, someone(s) are doing this to EVERY Dave Grusin tune uploaded on youtube.

[immelio]

beautiful movie

Thank you much for posting this lovely song. My grandmother just passed away on the 17th of March, and this was "our movie." I'm going to miss her so very much, but this reminds me of what a remarkable and gentle soul she was--an elegant old dame like Ethyl Thayer. Sadly, as Ethyl says, "Life marches by . . . I suggest you get on with it."

[dugger80]

Awesome movie.

[UFOSPACE1999]

John Williams said it is one of the best openings to a Movie...

[johnyzero2000]

This should have won the Oscar for best score not Chariots of Fire with its already dated synthesized score!

[AkaMouTinn]

its people like Dave Grusin who bring music to our lives. The people who diserve by far so many oscars never take them. Dave Grusin music piano playing is just perfect. Listen to my funny valentine song with michele pfeiffer.

[shadelcassian66]

Nature in itself is so perfect and awe inspiring, simply music to the mind to be so connected with an incredible planet.

[sanjac07]

The most sweet and touching movies ever.

[1978popcorn]

This is my favourite movie of all time and Henry is just sheer brilliance, a movie for all time

[THEGEEBOLIPS]

[etbella3]

@THEGEEBOLIPS You must be the anti-e.e. cummings; he wrote in all small letters. But thanks for the sentimental journey.

[MadawumkeagBrookie]

Wicked good movie. I wonder why they didnt make he movie on Mooshead lake. I love the low humming sound of that chris craft.

[wis7dom]

EPIC MOVIE. The best of my childhood. Superb!

[johnflemminng]

A most welcome and satisfying diversion that touches with its unpretentiousness, `On Golden Pond' is a lovely, lovely little film that should resonate for ages to come. Watch The Movie Here BigOnlineMovies . c o m

[ozzian2000]

[weathersh09]

Ethel, someone's at the door!!

[jdsings4U]

Norman Thayer Jr! Where the hell are you?

[WhirledSol]

LOOK NORMAN! LOOK AT THE LOOOOOOONNNNSSSS!

Great movie. Best opening.

[midnightatutopia]

YOU OLD POOP!

[DisasterFlicks]

One of my favorite movies of all time. It truly is a work of art. What a great ending to a career for Henry Fonda.

[imaliberal]

1981 best actor and best actress for roles in on Golden Pond and Jane Fonda was nominated for best supporting. Oscar for best screenplay. This is a movie for the ages.

[Axeles365]

lol norman's so grouchy

[zim83]

The movie itself is nothing to write home about, but this is a beautiful opening score by Dave Grusin. Lost the Oscar out to Vangelis, by the way.

[infinera06]

Only one of the most beautiful movies ever made...maybe you should have written home about it.

[ghosharian]

Hey do you know which he lost the Oscar too?

[wis7dom]

I remember the day when I was advanced enough to learn the theme song and still have the piano music to this day. WONDERFUL movie. So beautifully done.

[brunobxl27]

This movie is one of my favorite ! So funny, so sad ... SO BEAUTIFUL !!!

[paolomasneri]

What effect is to get to eighty years?

Two times worse than arriving to make forty years. I tried all day to draw some deeper conclusions, I've lived for up to eighty years: I have not found anything. The surprise is to arrive so fast. I'm getting older by the minute.

Ones again thank you Henry Fonda : Life is beautiful.

[martyn473473]

truly beautiful.for anyone out there that struggle with family , in so many ways .

i hope this film inspires people to keep trying to love.........always

[chrisno27]

Im 21 In April, but I still think this is one of the most Beautiful films I have ever seen. So heart warming and touching film.

10 Stars

[musicSTEVEN]

This will always be one of my favorite music pieces. Thanks for making this available.

[madgreys]

I love this movie for so many reasons and on so many levels. Thank you so much for sharing those wonderful opening minutes - every time I see these I know I'm in for the duration!

[ghosharian]

I agree 100%!

[alexbaker98]

i always thought for such a wonderful and critically classic movie that they ruined the ending with the line Norma says about the loon's kids going to Los Angeles or somewhere.. instead of just leaving it with "the loons have come to say goodbye"

[evnstar]

I thought that line was sweet.....it was like he was referring metaphorically to his daughter, and showing a sort of sentimentality towards her without really saying it right out. That line always made me cry a litte....It really was a beautiful movie, wasn't it?

[DAH404]

Thanks for this.

[lucsamska]

Awesome Movie...Thanks for posting

[9aspengold5]

Though I am not a fan of jane Fonda and wished she was not in this film, I loved Henry Fonda and Katherine Hepburn. A great story.

[tinampfeiffer]

I requested this song at our wedding reception and everyone that was old enough to remember it loved it. So beautiful.

[katydid26]

Thank you for posting this. One of my favorite movies of all time. Every time I hear that theme song, it brings tears to my eyes. Beautiful, touching, and haunting. I love it.

[etbella3]

@katydid26 I always wanted Henry Thoreau's book Walden Pond to be made into a movie. Here it is! Starring that other genius named Henry -- Henry Fonda -- who has a son named Peter, star of Easy Rider. The Fonda Family made my life complete.

[ozzian2000]

Best ever!!!
