Actress Jane Fonda is the only one in her profession who took a professional break of 15 years without anyone noticing. The Hollywood jewel on whose shelf are the trophies - the Oscar, the Golden Globe, the BAFTA, and the Lifetime Achievement Award, turns 85 on December 21 and has a life story worth a movie.
Jane Fonda was born on December 21, 1937. The daughter of Frances Ford, a woman of aristocratic blood who grew up as a member of the high class, and actor Henry Fonda never wanted to become an actress. Fonda did not like her father's life.
Unfortunately, the life of the actress was not easy at all because she lost her mother as a teenager. Frances Ford was sexually abused as a child and her daughter found out after her death when she examined medical documents.
Jane and Frances were equally unhappy about living with Henry Fonda. Although Henry is one of the most beloved American actors, his family was not overly fond of him because of his narcissistic behavior and alcohol problems. In 1950, Frances was placed in the Craig House mental institution in New York, where she committed suicide on her 42nd birthday, after Henry asked her for a divorce.
Hurt Jane did not want her father's life, so she ran away from acting for years, but it eventually came for her. Fonda's career from the sixties until 1990 was amazing. Numerous accolades from critics, film awards, and the love of the audience. She won the first Oscar in 1970 for the film "Klute".
The actress said in 1990 that she was withdrawing from the world of film and she was not there until 2005.
The first film that Fonda made after 15 years of her career was "Monster in Low" with Jennifer Lopez, which was a great commercial success. Two years ago, she was nominated for a Golden Globe for the film "Youth", and next year we will see her in the comedy "Book Club".
As Fonda said, she is an actress who is like a beginner, who has just stepped into the world of acting and is conquering the world. Jane is one of the few women in Hollywood who stepped into the elderly years of her life with complete dignity and reminded the audience how appearance really isn’t so important.
