Welcome to Uncertain Age! This week, AR (Anna) Nicholas and Dale Basye revisit 1997’s “bee” movie Ulee’s Gold, a quietly powerful film that also explores themes of aging, redemption, and family. Directed by Victor Nunez and starring Peter Fonda in one of his most nuanced performances, Ulee’s Gold follows Ulee Jackson, a widowed beekeeper who struggles to hold his fractured family together while tending to his hives and dealing with a messy past. Set in the heart of Florida’s rural landscape, the film weaves a delicate narrative about personal resilience and the price of making peace with one’s choices. Is Ulee’s Gold an overlooked gem that captures the complexity of late-life reinvention, or does it get lost in its own subdued pace? Tune in to Uncertain Age to find out!
