The Story Of ‘Hanoi Jane’ Fonda, A Retrospective
In July, 1972, in Hanoi, Vietnam, Jane Fonda became infamous. The Vietnam War had been raging for nearly 10 years. U.S. citizens did not yet know about the burglary that had taken place at the Watergate hotel the month prior. Jane Fonda, actress and daughter of actor Henry Fonda, was passionate about exposing governmental lies and protecting the lives of civilians like those massacred at My Lai four years earlier.
HBO will be airing a documentary entitled Jane Fonda in Five Acts on September 24, 2018. Her Vietnam activism is sure to play a large part in the story.
