Part of the Covey Film Festival. This film provides a deeper look at the life, work, activism and controversies of actress and fitness tycoon, Jane Fonda. Directed and produced by award-winning documentarian Susan Lacy, Jane Fonda in Five Acts is described as an intimate look at Fonda’s singular journey.
It draws on 21 hours of interviews with Fonda, who speaks candidly and frankly about her life and her missteps. She explores the pain of her mother’s suicide, her father’s emotional unavailability, 30 years of an eating disorder and three marriages to highly visible, yet diametrically opposed, men.
The documentary also includes interviews with family and friends, including Robert Redford, Lily Tomlin, producer Paula Weinstein and former spouses Tom Hayden and Ted Turner, among others, as well as rare home movies and verité footage of the 81-year-old Fonda’s busy life today at, as she puts it, “the beginning of my last act.”
Jane will Skype in from LA to talk to the audience. Click here to learn more: https://coveyfilmfestival.org/#
