Deleted Scenes presents: I Love You Jane Fonda!
2 films in this collection
A double bill of Jane Fonda brought to you by Deleted Scenes.
In BARBARELLA: SEX PILLS! SEX MACHINES! HAIRY GUYS! HAIRLESS GUYS! LOVE!
In the distant future, sex has fallen out of fashion. Space adventurer Barbarella is tasked by the Earth’s president to travel to another planetary system to retrieve the positronic ray, a powerful weapon of potential mass destruction. Barbarella’s on a mission and nothing will get in her way, except perhaps her sex drive and everyone’s sexual ambition. She’ll help the blind angel Pygar rediscover the will to fly (by having sex with him), and defeat torture device The Excessive Machine (destroying it by outlasting its death-inducing orgasm).
Jane Fonda’s fourth and final collaboration with her then-husband Roger Vadim created one of film’s most memorable characters and sex symbols, placing Fonda at the epicentre of 60s culture and turning her into a true icon and poster child of the decade’s sexual freedom.
In WALK ON THE WILD SIDE: Dove Linkhorn (Laurence Harvey) meets teen rebel Kitty Twist (Jane Fonda) hitchhiking and train-hopping from Texas to Louisiana in search of his long-lost love Hallie Gerard (Capucine). When they reach New Orleans, he finds Hallie working at a brothel. Dove wants to whisk her away, but he’ll have to go through madam Jo Courtney (Barbara Stanwyck) first, who’s obsessed with Hallie and also lures Kitty in, enlisting her as the brothel’s youngest girl with far-reaching consequences.
Jane Fonda is a bombshell in her second role in this film noir, an early showcase of her magnetic screen presence and a foreshadowing of the sex-on-legs icon she’d become throughout the decade with films like Joy House, Circle of Love and Barbarella.
