And old Jane wasn't that great of an actress. Her father was a leftist, too, but at least he gave some excellent performances (12 Angry Men, Grapes of Wrath and so many others). Other than maybe Klute, I didn't like any of her other movies. I think she got parts just because she was Henry's daughter.

Furthermore, I'll never forgive her for her exercise books and tapes. That no pain, no gain thing nearly wrecked my back.

She is a typical example of nepotism in Hollywood.

There are two ways to make it in Hollywood ,screw somebody important or be a relative of a star.

I think she probably did both.

Her being picked to play Nancy Reagan in a movie is a deliberate slap in the face of Conservatives by a liberal Hollywood.Deliberate.

I know I will not see this movie and I pray no American will watch it. Giving money to a traitor is not my cup of Tea.

She gave one or two good performances (Klute & They Shoot Horses) and then backslid into repetitious, pious, politically-correct roles that eroded her talent. By the time she quit to marry Ted Turner, she was unbelievably bad. The art of acting must be studied continually. Going off and becoming a traitor does not a great actress make.

I actually loved Jane in the movie, “The Dollmaker.” She played a Kentucky backswoodsy wife whose husband moved the family to Detroit. He got a job working in the auto plant and started buying everything on credit, got messed up with the union thugs and she whittled dolls to sell so they could go back home and buy a farm in Kentucky. They also lost a precious little girl who sat on a train track and got run over. It was heart wrenching.

I despise her politics and what she did in VC, but I will give her kudos for her acting in the above-mentioned movie.

She also did a good job in “On Golden Pond.” Other than these 2, I haven’t seen any of her other movies.
