The Trouble with Grandpa

The relationship between a 17-year-old girl named Dori (Meg Tilly) and her 75-year-old grandfather "Grampa" (Elisha Cook Jr.) living in a trailer by the sea. Dori, who has lost her parents, is very insecure and believes herself to be plain, inept and friendless, while her grandfather is active and loves to swim. Together, they are two lonely people both dependent upon each other – he worries about her and she worries about him. When her grandfather soon begins to show signs of senility, Dori must face the possibility of him becoming ever more dependent upon her. She rises to the challenge, getting a new appreciation of herself in the process. ==Cast==
