Description

The clip Norman searches employment, does strawberry picking from On Golden Pond (1981) with Henry Fonda, Katharine Hepburn Someone's at the door. It's me, you old poop! Where have you been? Picking strawberries. There were oodles and oodles of little strawberries along the old town road. How nice. What you are doing in here on a morning like this is beyond me! I've been quite busy looking through yesterday's paper for gainful employment. Here we go again. Very good prospects, I think. Chauffeurs, yard work. Dairy Divine wants an ice-cream dipper. I think I could do something like that, don't you? What are you gonna do if you call and they say, "Come on over and start tomorrow"? Go on over and start tomorrow. Oh, for the love of God! What on earth's the matter with you? Give me that stuff. Take these buckets and pick us another quart of strawberries. And I'll fix us up a scrumptious strawberry shortcake for lunch. Go on. You want me to pick strawberries? Yep. Do I have to put an ad in the paper? I'm not sure I know how. It's really very simple. You bend over and pick 'em. Bend over? Where are they? On the ground, where they belong. Last time we picked blueberries they were on a bush. Didn't have to bend over at all. These are strawberries, and they grow on the ground. Here comes what's-his-name. He'll have the paper. I don't want to miss any career opportunities off lookin' for strawberries. I'll pay you. It may be the beginning of something big. You may become a major strawberry picker.
