Jane Fonda has a new biopic being released on Netflix this week called Jane Fonda in Five Acts, so of course sat down for a tell-all with USA Today to talk about her life in the limelight, her struggles with insecurity, and that infamous anti-war photo prompting millions to dub her Hanoi Jane -- something she says she deeply regrets.
Published on Monday, the article presented the profile of a woman, who hadnt (until recently) ever felt comfortable in her own skin. Fonda detailed how the early suicide of her mother, the aloofness of her father, and the pressure of life behind the camera led to a difficult and insecure life.
Maybe the fact that she grew up a bit unmoored and unsure about herself contributed to the fact that she got behind lefty progressive activism. USA Today wrote that Fonda is often identified with her progressive political activism, most memorably expressed in her opposition to the Vietnam War. Fondas visit to North Vietnam drew fierce pushback that exists today.
As it should. She gave aid and comfort to Americas enemies in the form of a PR coup. She broadcast communist propaganda to U.S. military personnel, and the NVA stopped beating seven even American POWs long enough for her to be filmed meeting them.
Then, of course, theres the infamous picture of Fonda sitting behind a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun peering up the sights just like her hosts did when U.S. warplanes appeared over head. It went beyond anti-war and into treason.
Its taken decades, but Hanoi Jane has admitted that it was a dumb move. She told USA Today, Im naive and I make mistakes, adding that It was a betrayal
I will go to my grave regretting that.

Where she’s likely to go, she’ll probably be regretting it a whole lot more after she gets to her grave.
Her new “documentary” must have really tanked.
Here are the transcripts of 19 propaganda speeches she made on Radio Hanoi.
Thanks. I knew it was something. I guess she’ll need an entire hour for her own revision.
Hanoi Jane can regret it all she wants, she’s still a traitor.
only took 50 years. smh
Sincere regrets “has a new biopic being released on Netflix this week”. Sure.
Did she apologize for saying “Communism is beautiful”? Thought not.
Her family better be able to afford a 24/7 armed guard at her grave. :)
I’d like to live near that spot. I’d get a dog and train him to ‘go’ there daily!! :)
She only regrets it because we still remember it.
Then again I doubt she regrets anything.
And the horse she rode in on.
Burn In Hell Slut!
Will she regret Barbarella too?.
Regret? Whats to regret? Thats a great skin flick!!
Jane,
We’ll be sure to visit your grave site often after long evenings of beer drinking.
Regards,
If was even sincere. Will bet she is still hobnobs with the Hollywood left and remains highly regarded. She was a faithful and useful warrior.
“...I will go to my grave regretting that...”
Dear jane,
OK, go there.
Not only is it on Netflix. It is also on Comcast cable. I couldn’t stomach watching it.
Please go there sooner rather than later.
Can we replace those stickers with former Sec. Of State John Kerry??
