Jane's impression of Kate is friggen hilarious

I have seen many movies with Jane Fonda but for some reason On golden pond stayed with me forever,she deserved the Oscar but they went for Cate Hepburn ! So glad she has outlive everybody such beautiful woman and great actress !

I didn't expect this to make me so emotional. Both Jane and Hepburn are incredible women.

What a beautiful tribute, on the 2005 interview even the audience got emotional

Age and wisdom is priceless.

Starting at 2:05, the segment with interviewer James Lipton, I enjoy the parts Jane brings up about the financial part of making a movie and an actor's dilemma in playing emotional scenes. Imagine arriving on a movie set and having Katherine Hepburn say to your face: "I don't like you!"

I loved Jane's impression of Katherine's, cool.......

On my top ten list of all time. As I grow old with my wife (who looks a lot like Katherine Hepburn) my heart aches at the thought of losing each other. But we are both Christians and believe that by His grace we will be together again. But we're not immune to the sadness and the melancholy that accompanies nostalgia. Perfectly captured in this move. Bravo!

Jane and her famous dad never had a father-daughter relationship plus many people don't know Jane's mom committed suicide, so she never had a normal childhood. Having finally lived out her "Hanoi Jane" period, it's good to see Fonda finally sharing her experiences with the public. She'll be 81 yrs-old in Dec. 2018 (obviously doesn't look it).

2 very different women & personalites. No right, no wrong, no better or worse. Both remarkable in different ways. I love & respect both.

It’s a movie that breaks everything in me every time I watch it, because it mirrors, exactly, the relationship between my father and my sister, there couldn’t be a story any closer to their relationship then this movie, and at the end when she says goodbye and finally calls him dad, I had to get up and leave the theater, because I couldn’t stop crying hysterically. Men aren’t supposed to cry, but I wasn’t ashamed. Unfortunately my father and sister still to this day, have not made amends, no matter how hard myself or my mother have tried, and it absolutely breaks both of our hearts that they just refuse to set aside their petty differences and allow us to be a family. Just like in the movie my father isn’t going to be around for much longer being in his late 80s with, well, enough health problems that he should’ve been dead years ago, and my sister has many health problems as well. My mother and I will probably live to be 100, It’s just not right that they don’t get along because they are so much alike, all they do is butt heads, and God for bid you tell them that’s why they don’t get along, they both get offended, they both refused to go to therapy, and my mother and I are beside ourselves with grief. We so desperately want to be a normal family, a loving family, before one of them passes away, but I have no idea what to do, if anyone has any advice I welcome it, because I love them both more than anything in the world, and it breaks my heart when all they ever do is fight, and I get stuck in the middle. If I had known what the movie was about before I watched it, I would’ve never seen it, I was in tears for weeks afterwards, even my therapist told me I should never have seen it! We even have a cottage that we go to all summer, exactly like the movie, right down to the exact same boats, it’s almost eerie, it’s as if someone peered into our lives and made a movie out of it! The only difference is it’s not on Golden Pond, it’s on rocky point in Wolfe Lake, up north of Toronto in the Kawarthas (cottage country for the people that live here in Toronto, about a 2 to 3 Hour drive north of the city. Because my sister is six years older, when I was younger, I don’t remember her being there very much, but my father actually sold the cottage, because my sister would end up having to use wild house parties while we were up north, one time we came home a day early because of bad weather and my father found a bunch of adult men passed out all around our home, and my sister who was only 19 at the time in bed with a man who was 32. My father‘s ex Navy, he’s 6 foot two and 270 pounds of solid muscle, nobody would ever cross him, but the guys passed out in our home tried to, because my sister had badmouth him so much, my dad literally threw each one of them out the front door by hand, call the cops and had them all arrested for many reasons.... my sister got into a huge fight with my father, who was well within his rights to throw these strangers out of his home, they even had the nerve to threaten him, bad idea. My father was also a Navy seal in the Canadian Navy.... all the way did have guns in the house, he didn’t need to use them, I’ll never forget him picking up this guy right off the ground, and literally throwing him about 10 feet out of my front door! Anyways, in the end of that day, my parents gave her an ultimatum, and told her either come to the cottage with us, or they would sell it, so she could never trash are home throwing wild parties again. That was the first day I ever heard her tell my father to fuck off to his face, I was really afraid that he was going to lose it and smash her in the face, thank God he didn’t, he did the next best thing, he took everything from her room including her furniture and threw it on the front lawn, told her to get out, and to never come back unless she was willing to apologize for her being complete disregard and disrespect. Well I guess I don’t have to tell you that didn’t happen, the only reason my father did that was because she knew she spent most of her time with her boyfriend anyways, a guy that my sister knew my parents would hate, because he belong to the Satan’s choice motorcycle gang. To see my sister was a wild one is a huge understatement, she went out of her way to make my father’s life a living hell, and relished in it when he got angry. But my father also went to far many times, with me and my mother stuck in the middle. My sister ended up moving in with her boyfriend, who only lives literally right around the corner, so my dad knew she would not be homeless, he would never throw someone out of the house, especially his own child if he thought they would be homeless, he just wanted to scare her and teach her a lesson. That was over 30 years ago, the cottage was sold that very year, and I was so angry that I lost the place I loved most just because my sister and father were acting like jackasses. My mother refused to sleep with my father for weeks, until he finally did call my sister and apologize, but it was too late. The damage was already done, my father had changed all the locks on the doors in the house and at the cottage, just in case she tried to hide out up there. He still insisted on selling the cottage because she threatened to burn it down when we weren’t there, and given her past history, she probably would have, that’s how crazy she can be. Right now things are peaceful for the moment, my mother and I still trying to get them to act like a father and a daughter, but we don’t think it’s ever going to happen. So I just tried my best to support either of them, and tried not to take sides, although I have to say that my poor dad went through hell and back, and he really did try everything to be a good father. But she would never give him a chance, even when she was a little girl. You see, she is their biological child, they were told that due to certain medical issues, they would never have a child, but they did, but after years of trying they gave up and adopted me six years later. My parents said that ever since I came into the picture she hated me from day one, because I was a threat, and instead of loving me as a sister, she saw me, as a target and a threat. Now that they are older, my sister has spent the last 20 years faking an injury, so she can stay on disability. She had two boys, and divorced her husband, after she drove The poor man away with her vicious tongue and wild accusations, none of which were true. For the past 20 years she’s been trying to sue him for every penny she could, and now she’s after my parents money as she was approaching retirement age when her disability will stop, and her income will be greatly reduced. In 2012, during one of her mad rants, she told my parents that because I’m adopted I’m not really part of the family, and she should get all of their money. My parents do you have a fair amount of money, but she’s not getting one penny, I know this because I just took my parents to the lawyers office last week. I have never once asked for anything from them, but they gave me a life I could never have asked for, and were the best parents on earth, so I do everything in my power to make their final years happy, and just because of that they want to leave me everything. I told them that I don’t want their money, I just want them to stay with me as long as possible, because I really don’t care about the money, I care about them. But their mind is made up, they made me their executor, and so inheritor of their estate, and cut my sister out of everything. Now I really dread the day they’re both gone. The lawyer has already told me that she will go after me legally, he said he has seen thousands of cases just like it, and every time it’s always the greedy one that tries to sue the entire family to get what they don’t deserve. I told my father, just give her something to shut her up, I’m going to be grieving your death, I don’t want to have to deal with her insanity at the same time, so they left her $100,000. They already gave her over $50,000 to help with the boys, not to mention paying for both of the boys University, but she doesn’t know they still have almost $2 million in the bank, and despite my best effort‘s my parents insist they want me to have the best life possible after they’re gone, but now I’m out of money on earth will ever make me truly happy once I’ve lost them. Money can’t replace people, and it can’t really make you happy, It’s just an illusion. Anyways, that’s it for now, stay tuned, one thing I love to do is to write, as you can tell. All my friends tell me I should write a book about this situation, and you know what, I might just do that once my parents have passed away, not for the money, which I’m going to donate to the foundation for Crohn’s and colitis, as I have Crohn’s disease, I just wanna do it as a form of therapy, distract myself after my parents are gone and I’m dealing with my insane sister who’s going to try to sue me, God help me!

Jane Fonda, sunteți și rămâneți plină de farmec, o frumusețe aparte, un talent in arta . Vă mulțumesc pentru filme deosebite.💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💮🍰

It must have been otherworldly to know Hepburn. I can see she influenced Jane in many ways. They’re very much different but very much the same in the will do what they do, say what they say, yet are professionals. Stuck in their ways. Jane is truly one of the last great stars and she was very much at the end of the classic era when she started.

Just loved On Golden Pond. So bloody strong.

I love absolutely everything about Jane Fonda

Catherine was one of the great great stars in her day.

Jane talks about the difficulty of getting financial backing for On Golden Pond, but can you imagine in today's age of blockbusters like Star Wars and Avengers endless sequels, a movie's premise about an elderly couple spending a summer on a lake would be shot dead on day 1.

I saw On Golden Pond in the theatre. It was a wonderful movie! How interesting to hear the back story.

Jane us very beautiful , discerning , personal and sharp as a tack . In an interview she did in line the 1980’s she said that her dad always told her she was a really good actress. But then she said he was cold as ice, maybe he was . But a lot of times relationships are not always black and white. He may have really loved her but was just stern and proud by nature. It’s a shame really that they couldn’t connect any better

Jane had the best hair of anyone!!!!

Really enjoyed this. What an interesting relationship they had. Wish there was more stories.

Gorgerous and intelligent woman ❤️

I LOVE LOVE LOVE JANE FONDA!!!

Incredible!

PLEASE with all my will never go away b4 me 'Jane'~

I cannot believe she had problems getting financial support for the film. I have watched it many times and it doesn't get old.

Jane,o actriță celebră, totala, te admir sincer și mereu.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

On Golden Pond was so cathartic.

I just feel sorry for all of us. I'm happy Jane had positivity in her upbringing, but the reality is all of us should have this and the majority do not.

LET IT GO! JEEZ

11:35 very moving

You never can tell what Jane Fonda is going to say next as she lives for the MOMENT never for the future outcome OR remembers what she has said before. She is one of those 'First you say you can, then says you can't " women...

GREAT VIDEO ! MONDAY 11/13/23 NOVEMBER 13, 2023

A great lady, Jane Fonda, as accomplished as she was beautiful...

i loved On Golden Pond. I saw it with my now deceased father, who appreciated that there was no swearing in it.

80s hair and fashion. Will we ever understand why??

I'll never misspell Katharine. That's my mother's name.

KathArine

Katharine.

Henry Fonda gave his all for the artwork of acting, like Spencer Tracy in Guess who's coming to dinner. Actors seem to have a an epathity before they die! One last stand for a changing WORLD!

Jane has such a gorgeous dog. Good boy.

Im in conflict with my mother I get jane

I wonder if Barbara Stanwick was ever considered for the role that Kate Hepburn got? She had chemistry with Henry Fonda and Jane Fonda and Barbara Stanwick had been in a film together in 1962 and hosted the AFI award ceremony for Stanwick in 1987. So Jane Fonda must have had some regard for her.

Jane can play the mother on golden pond now

10:24

Jane looks like a brunette 90’s Barbie with that hair and those earrings in the beginning

Hanoi Jane

I enjoy these videos, but often the same stories are repeated 2 or 3 times.

I like and respect one of these women. Jane Fonda is not that person, I will never change my mind. I look forward to the announcement of her passing. Bless Katherine Hepburn, a fine human and great woman.

What's with all the Jane Fonda haters? Geez...

She looked so much like her dad. Enjoyable interviews, except where Henry degraded his daughter 😟.

Rotten audio, gave up trying to understand.

It's spelled KathArine...

Kate did a lot of hiding in the bushes.

OMG, Tom Cottle's hair 🤣🤣🤣.

Can we talk about the beautiful boy at 2:25?

I can understand Katherine Hepburn not taking a shine to Jane Fonda. The same way I wouldn't expect to see cosmetic commercials from Katherine Hepburn or Henry Fonda during a pandemic. Henry Fonda seemed a class act. His progeny, perhaps not so much. Perhaps we can utilize crowd funding so Jane doesn't feel the need to encourage women to spend money on cosmetics. at a time when it's possible that many of them can least afford it.

This commie, I can't help myself I like her

And yet now Fonda is not kind about Hepburn. As her Daughter says her mother is a Chameleon.

Her Dad can't say a Damn thing to her without some trauma insuing. She had bad mouthed him enough maybe she hurt his feelings too. Oh I forgot he was alledgedly colder than ice.

Hearing an actress as utterly mediocre as Marlo Thomas criticizing Katharine Hepburn is like hearing Jackie Collins criticizing Jane Austen.

mmm. I never cared for Fonda, or Hepburn. I think it because I could tell they were just acting. If a performance is good, you believe.

How did Babara Walters every become a success she is very poor

If Katharine Hepburn didn't like you there was a good reason.

How much damage Lee Strasberg did to acting!

I'm quite sure that Katharine would not be happy about Jane's attempt at impersonating her and her attempt at her shaky voice. Shame on you Jane!

I don't like Hanoi Jane's Katherine Hepburn impersonations. They're not funny, just disrespectful and hateful. She couldn't touch Hepburn's incredible celebrity, but she could certainly speak ill of Hepburn all those years later, which is pathetic.

I purposely did not listen to this because she’s a traitor. I don’t want to hear anything from her. She doesn’t see the damage that she did.

Hanoi jane

Diva? Fonda’s not fit to wipe Hepburn’s ass

She is no diva but Hanoi Jane

Did she really have to mimic Katherine’s shaking? I can see she is “trying” to express respect, but sometimes this broad can be an icy old cactus.

Maybe she just did’t like you because you were a traitor.

Jane Fonda a traitor!

You know what. Katharine was right. I dont like her either

This rather plain-looking girl, daughter of a rather good film actor, now suffers the consequences of exercise. Bless her! But some of us are old enough to remember Barbarella. Mm.

she acts like this is important....actors are a joke!
