    Everyone was holding their breath wondering if she would make some political statement. But her father Henry Fonda advised her to stay "there's a lot to say but I'm not going to say in tonight". And so that's what she did. A very classy thing to do.

      Jane Fonda's papa, late actor Henry Fonda died, prostate cancer in August, 1982 in his 70s. He's been outlived by daughter Jane, who's still currently living in her 80s. Speaking, people in their 80s, in 2023 both male vocalists in late Gordon L'ghtft, Jr. from Canadian Town, Orilla, Ont. 🇨🇦/late Kenyan-born Roger Wh'ttkr died in 2023 about 4 1/2 months apart.

    Jane Fonda's performance in Klute is one of the best performances ever recorded on film by an American actor. Stunning, brilliant, and extremely intense, that film was all Fonda. Well deserved Oscar for her work. Likewise for her work in They Shoot Horses, Don't They?

      Yes, I agree, one of Jane Fonda's best performances, hence her Oscar win. One thing I loved about the film were the therapy sessions between Fonda and Vivian Nathan. Very bold (for that time period) and intelligently acted by both women. From what I've read those scences were somewhat improvised by Jane and Vivian.

    Just saw "Klute" earlier this evening in a phenomenal, pristine 35mm archival print at LACMA (thanks, AMPAS!) I liked the film more than ever and Jane is certainly deserving of this award. She played that character perfectly. And seeing it on the big screen as it was meant to be seen, one can really get immersed (I certainly did) in the character, mood, paranoia psychological tension of wonderful storytelling.
    And looking back, this is a great speech. As everyone knows, this was Jane's "controversial" period, and keeping it mum was the right thing to do. A class act all the way!

      @@david.hirsch4235 I was looking for that criticism to arise. Vietnam was an utter catastrophe, just as Iraq and Afghanistan have turned out to be. Fonda was a bit player in the whole affair, but felt the wrath of the betrayal Americans rightfully felt over the war. However, that wrath was never aimed where it should be, at least not fully, which belongs with the Johnson and Nixon administrations. We were lied into that war, then lied to again by the Bush administration in 2003. That's where Americans should place their anger; our own sick government...and ourselves for electing and re-electing them...

    Jane Fonda in fact does do Broadway and in fact received a Tony Award nomination for Best Actress in a Play, two years ago for a play I believe called "44 Variatons", as she is a genuis talent in cinema, television movies and on the stage.

      @155gerard 8 лет назад +2

      Jane was great in this film and deserved this, her first oscar. 1971 was a very good year for female actor performances. In fact there were about a dozen performances that year deserving of an oscar nomination but as always just room for the top five which were Jane Fonda(Klute), Julie Christie(McCabe&Mrs.Miller), Glenda Jackson(Sunday, Bloody Sunday), Vanessa Redgrave(Mary Queen of Scots) and Janet Suzman(Nicolas and Alexandra); seven other terrific performances that year that sadly could not make the cut were Kitty Winn(The Panic in Needle Park)-she won The Cannes Film Festival BestActressAward), Ruth Gordon(Harold and Maude), Julie Christie gave a second great performance that year in "The Go Between" as did Glenda Jackson in "Mary, Queen of Scots), Gena Rowlands(Minnie and Moskowitz), Shirley MacLaine(Desperate Characters) and Jessica Walters(Play Misty For Me)

      Excuse me--but YOU said that Jackson was nominated for Best Supporting Actress--YOU are the one who said that. I corrected you and then you insisted you were right when you were wrong. So who's the arrogant one now? And she wasn't nominated for Mary, Queen of Scots--she was nominated for Sunday Bloody Sunday.

    Julie Christe was in Venice, Italy filming "Don't Look Now", otherwise she would have attended, as she attended the BAFTA awards the month earlier, closer in London,UK for her 2 nominations for both "McCabe&Mrs.Miller" and "The Go Between". Most critics predicted Jane Fonda would win, as she swept The New York Film Critics Award votes for Best Actress, similar to her same win (NYFC) two years earlier for her equally sublime work in "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?".

    An Oscar well deserved... and a speech well said. Jane wanted to speak out against the injustice of the Vietnam War, but, at the advice of her father, Henry, she was suggested not to, but the way she stated what she said, said so much to the humility and respect she has for the movie industry, the American people, and for those experiencing the trauma of the times. A true activist, an amazing actress, an American hero.

    The 1st is a sequence of acting Oscar wins for films shot by the great Gordon Willis. Between the period 1972 to 1978 Marlon Brando, John Houseman, Robert De Niro, Jason Robards and Diane Keaton would also win. Despite these successes, Gordon went overlooked for every single one of these films.

She thought it might be a way for everyone to stop fighting by bringing both sides closer. Did she put herself at risk? OF COURSE SHE DID! Thank you, Jane. I know you love our Country as much as I do and lets throw in a few million more who have forgiven you.

    I remember when Jane organized a meeting with Vietnam veterans to extend a hand towards peace, I admired her for doing this because the hatred was misplaced and should have been towards the war profiteers and a corrupt administration. Ms Fonda kept the meeting low key without cameras because she didn’t want it to be called a political stunt. All I know is is when she came out and spoke briefly it was clear she was shaken. I’m proud of her bravery and conviction ❤️
