Fondavision: Period of Adjustment (1962)

from We Really Like Her! · host Danita Steinberg & Emily Gagne

This week on FONDAVISION ... Jane Fonda doing her best Blanche DuBois in a sub-textually queer film from the writer of Funny Girl (the play and film)! Listen in as Emily and Danita navigate Tennessee Williams adaptation Period of Adjustment (1962), which features one of Jane's earliest on-screen performances. Is this black-and-white MGM picture just another silly pitstop on Jane's way to serious superstardom, or does it have some sneakily forward-thinking themes that would steer the course of her career forevermore?
