Summary:
Girl next door, sex kitten, fitness tycoon, high-profile activist, OscarĀ®-winner: Jane Fonda has lived a life marked by controversy, tragedy and transformation, and she's done it all in the public eye. This exclusive HBO documentary, directed and produced by the acclaimed filmmaker Susan Lacy, draws on 21 hours of recent interviews with Fonda, who speaks candidly and frankly about her life, her loves, her causes, and her missteps. She explores the pain of her mother's suicide, her famous father's emotional unavailability, 30 years of an eating disorder, and three marriages to highly visible, yet diametrically opposed, men (Roger Vadim, Tom Hayden and Ted Turner). Jane Fonda in Five Acts features interviews with family members (including Hayden and Turner) and close friends, as well as rare home movies and veriteĢ footage of Fonda's busy life today as she faces, at 80, "the beginning of my last act."
