Jane Fonda, a firebrand anti-Vietnam War activist in the 1960s and early '70s, has revealed that her father, the legendary actor Henry Fonda, advised her against making any political comment when she accepted her best actress award for Klute in 1971. She took his advice. In an interview with Robert Osborne on the TCM channel scheduled to air tonight (Thursday), Fonda said that she had her father very much in mind when she accepted the award. "I realized that I had just won an Oscar and my dad never had," she tells Osborne. "I cried and cried. It just seemed so wrong."
