In this film, a couple, after seeing the lovely job a friend of theirs has done in converting an old mill house into a cozy mansion, moves into an old farmhouse after persuading the current owner, an old man, to leave. When they arrive, he appears to be preparing to leave, but it soon becomes evident that the man has no intention of going to live with his children, and intends to stay in the house. At first, they find his presence unbearable, but when he must go to the hospital, they begin to realize that they care for the feisty old gentleman. 　　~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide 　　 　　译文(3): 在这部电影中，一对夫妇在看到他们的一个朋友把一座旧磨坊改造成舒适的豪宅所做的可爱工作后，在说服现任主人一位老人离开后，搬进了一座旧农舍。当他们到达时，他似乎正准备离开，但很快就发现，这名男子无意与孩子们住在一起，而是打算留在家里。起初，他们觉得他无法忍受，但当他必须去医院时，他们开始意识到他们关心这位精力充沛的老绅士。
