The newlyweds, Carl, and Ellie Fredricksen, dream of their future at a picnic. Walking out into the countryside, Karl and Ellie spread a picnic on the grass. Then, looking at the sky, they dream of a family.
Alas, their romantic dreams of visiting Paradise Falls are never fulfilled. Ellie dies, and Carl becomes a recluse. Is it gut-wrenching?
There is a wicker basket with a blue napkin full of food. But it’s decorative. Neither Carl nor Ellie is seen eating.
