Trivia: Jane asked the Academy president they could close caption the ceremony(He said no) it's why Jane used sign language. so The Academy not just has a history of being cruel to performers of color, but also those with disabilites. Bravo Jane you're not just awesome you're a hero
There's so much wrong with hollywood. The people are overlooked for their crimes (sexual assault, rape, racism and homophobia only to name a few) and congratulated on such arbitrary and simple things. They think of it as a sign that they can continue with what they doing, and they can "apologise" when it gets bad because their reputation as a celebrity can't be lost no matter how many people speak against them. It's toxic, shameful and absolutely horrific. Jane Fonda is one of the rare unproblematic, talented queens of hollywood. Everything from her acting career to here legendary workout videos to her activism for climate change is out of genuine concern and care and pure talent. She uses her fame and publicity for something good, and that should be recognised and awarded, since it's sadly such a rarity. 🧡
Jane Fonda: this woman has more guts, talent and brains in her index finger than many many people have in their entire lived lives. She takes my breath away because she is stellar.
I just watched this, and it probably rates in my opinion, as the best so far by any actress in our recent cultural history. I should correct that. And agree, one of the best by any actor I've seen deliver a speech at the Oscars; regardless of gender. 👏🏻
Lol best speech ever at an award show was Ricky Gervais last golden globes. Here is an idea worship someone real or Jesus. Faw ing over someone who can't play make believe.
They all may be legends NOW, but back then Ellen Burstyn's nod seemed out of place for a film that's actually a teensy bit terrible. Liv Ullman, even then a legend, in 'Autumn Sonata' would have been a far better choice.
i went into thinking what pompous self-important self-celebratory bunch of groups of Hollywood film industry types and jane fonda changed all that when she started speaking ASL, love you, Jane!
One of the best speeches ever at the oscars. Jane Fonda is just flawless and a true legend. Loved every performance of her especially Klute and They Shoot Horses Don't They
She really is unusual among the Hollywood crowd. She speaks with conviction from the heart and not just empty words. It’s been said so much it feels hollow . But she is wise, noble , beautiful and has a voice of a mother or teacher that makes you want just love doing what’s right to please her. Conviction mixed with maternal kindness is a potent force.
@bert smith aparantly you are unfamilure with her stunt during the vietnam war era.. by all means look it up. and im not the only one that feels that way
@bert smith you asked me to explain why shes a traitor well whats the confusion of why many many feel shes a traitor??... saying "oops" doesnt always make it all better. this wasnt accidental it was deliberate...and i am only one of many that feel that way
+1997residente Underrated? It was overrated as hell. Take Jon Voigt and Bruce Dern out of it, and you don't have a movie. Disabled veterans deserve something better than schmaltz.
Three Academy Awards, six Academy nominations, best actor award at Cannes, huge box office in 1978, and you call it "underrated"? I think the word "underrated" is the most overrated and overused word on youtube.
What a great speech.. So honest and from the heart.. Coming Home was such an important film, Ms Fonda was right to be so pleased with her shared accomplishment.. Regal woman..
Shirley's reaction was priceless. Lover her... And Jane. Whenever she talks and gives speeches, always with depth and with heartfelt dialogue.. Even up to this day at age 83... Go Jane!
My goodness! Jane Fonda is resplendently beautiful here, receiving a well-deserved Academy Award while promoting respect for the rights of handicapped people and veterans at the same time. Congratulations, Jane ✨Yes, you’re a star ⭐️
It is always a pleasure for me to listen Jane Fonda. My mother language is not english and I try everyday to learn new vocabulary and have a better pronunciation and in that instance Jane Fonda has helped me so much, because her english (for me) is the best pronounced I can hear and her words, speeches and everything she says is classy, positive and smart.
A true celebrity who has used (is using and I'm sure will continue using) her privilege for the topics that matter. Disabled people in 1979, climate change in 2019, and many more between... Love you Jane.
I saw her once in traffic. I was tired--I hadn't slept in 36 hours--and I was making my way too slowly crossing the street as I saw a car in my periphery waiting to make a left in Westwood. I picked up my pace as I glanced at the driver...couple steps, and then I did the biggest double take of my life. She gave me the biggest smile. Cute
Her son, that little boy that smiles in the end that she thanks is now the grown up Troy Garity who had roles in the two Barbershop movies and the two HBO TV series Boss and Ballers.
@@gomezsalvatore2607 Lol Americans are saint as if. Because when we needed help it was Russia not America. You people need to stop giving importance to yourself.
I loved Jane Fonda in this film. It was such a heartfelt movie and employed actual veterans. Jon and Jane had me in tears. A wonderful love story. I've watched it many times and it still makes me think about the handicapped and their troubles after the war.
My heroine, Jane Fonda, for SO MANY REASONS. I have age-related hearing loss just starting, so this was such a powerful acceptance speech, what an IMPORTANT FILM. One of the reasons I so admire her is that she has always jumped into the pool of life and lived it 200%, gone through so many phases and even in her eighties, continues to be so inspiring! Love Jane! MADGE ROY
Jane Fonda, one of the best actors {currently plastic and soulless} classic Hollywood ever produced--a superbly talented and compassionate human being and a Humanitarian who should have long ago been given an Award from the UN as well. Bravo!
She is so beautiful, was so beautiful, always will be so beautiful. Big big hearth. I want to watch that film. She was always beside beautiful, so smart and depply commited with the important things in life. Thank you Jane. Pd: Shirley was so young here! This is just lovely. Oh, and Warren Beaty was with Diane Keaton in this time :) love that couple.
Jane was awesome. Well deserved award for that performance. I love Shirley MacLaine and her little tribute to her brother Warren Beatty....too funny. There was so much great talent and great movies that year (and in the 70s) in general. Hollywood and the film industry today are pretty miserable by comparison.
She's great! And she's done A LOT more activism than her brother ever did. Not only was she against the war in Vietnam, but she would also help women that had suffered from sexual abuse.
if you consider being a communist traiter awesome sure..i will go along. Many of you apparently do not understand, care or see what she pulled during the Vietnam war
Despite the fact that many Vietnam veterans continue to hate Ms. Fonda for the whole infamous "Hanoi Jane" incident, there can be no doubt that she gave a great performance in 'Coming Home', easily the best of the five that were nominated. So based on acting alone (which, after all, is what the Oscars are about), she fully deserved the award. Watching the clips of the nominations and winners for the Oscars throughout the decade of the 1970's reminds me of how many great films were made back then...the days of when characters and stories meant more than action and special effects. That fact still continued somewhat into the 1980's, but after the '80's expired, it's never been quite the same.
I'm 59 and I'm tired of hearing about "Hanoi Jane" for sure. She NEVER betrayed American POWs. She's repeatedly aplogized and explained regret for those photos. It's a ball of shit that's mixed with lies and myths that people continue to push around the Internet, despite the fact there's no proof. I am grateful that people today don't continue to judge me for idiotic things I did or said when i was young, or missteps I made...but for some reason, Fonda really has endured more than her fair share of shit heaped upon her. Only those who are self-blinded and self-righteous still refuse to 'forgive', yet they are the ones that probably need more forgiveness. Grow up, world. www.snopes.com/military/fonda.asp
I actually got to be on the set of 'Coming Home' when they filmed at Rancho Los Amigos Hospital in Downey, California in 1977. A testament to the communal open feeling created by director Hal Ashby. That would never happen today. Jane was very cool and Jon Voight honestly lived that role, I'll tell you. They were both very dedicated to doing a great job.
Hands down, Ingrid Bergman in Autumn Sonata, the crown jewel of her acting career. This is no shade on the other wonderful actresses nominated. All richly deserving.
Jane really believed in this film. The money people couldn’t see an audience paying money for a subject everyone was trying to forget. Not Jane - the soldiers coming home were never really welcomed because the war was not winnable or popular . Jane didn’t care about that . Whether the war was a righteous one and Jane believed it wasn’t as do most people now do, she wasn’t going to let these soldiers contribution to their country be swept under the rug . What these boys gave was their peace of mind ( PTSD) limbs , and many gave their lives. Jane may have been against the war but she was for the soldiers who gave to their country. She put her money , time , career in to making sure this film got made. It was her passion. Geraldine Page gave a performance of a lifetime but she had enough talent for two lifetimes and rightfully won fo “ trip to Bountiful “ I believe interiors and trip to bountiful were master class acting performances . Pure genius
I was just amazing to see so much inspiring speech frm such an incredible being Her AFI Speech again showed her incredible power she contains as an actor
love her hair at this time. would like to see a revival of this soft style 2017. we have all had enough of the look that has been around for ages and ages. bring back the perm with soft layers and hair rollers. it's about time this look from the seventies remembering Farrah ofcourse was revisited. It never really has apart from Madonna and that was just a quick trend. looking for a proper revival of the look not just a glimpse if the seventies from Madonna.
Damn that was Clayburgh's... she was amazing in An Unmarried Woman. I loved Geraldine Pages performance in Interiors also but it was incredibly short and more appropriate to be in the supporting category.
I remember watching in TV this scene of 1979, I did not speak English at the time, I had taken a course of the language and tested my learning by listening Jane Fonda, got some phrases at the beginning, then she started to speak very fast for me, and I did not get a single word and I got depressed. Haha! I know now, 40 years later, that she was thanking people in sequence. Catching last names is a hard part for a language learner, because most of them are words that the learner has never heard.
One of the greatest Oscar® acceptance speeches in history. Jane Fonda was way ahead of her time in publicly acknowledging the plights of the disabled in this country. The rest of her speech was just as beautiful too...as beautiful as she is.
That was an outstanding performance and the movie moved me a lot. Igot to see it during the Lumière festival in Lyon because no one knows Hal Ashby in France which is a pity. Very simple and breathtaking at the same time.
USA produziu mulheres fabulosas, belas, inteligentes, lutadoras, mulheres de fibra e capazes. Mas se eu tivesse que escolher a mais bela de todas as que nasceram neste país, a mais combativa e determinada eu diria: JANE FONDA é o seu nome. Perfeita. Esta Deus criou pessoalmente.
CARAMBA!!!! ESSA MULHER ESTÁ A FRENTE DO SEU TEMPO.... EM 1979, NUMA ENTREGA DE OSCAR, FALANDO COM SINAIS.... PARABÉNS! SER UMA ESTRELA É ISSO... ALGUÉM 02/2020 VENDO ISTO?
What a Best Actress field that was--amazing!! The early fav to win was Jill Clayburg--then Rona Barrett on ABC the morning of the show said that Ingrid Bergman would get it. But I knew all along that Jane would win. She had won the Golden Globe 2 months prior AND MANY people felt that she should have won the previous year for Julia.
She deserved it the first time, and she deserved it the second time. Her performance in Coming Home is a rich exploration of a senstive time in our history,but the project came straight from her heart. She made the movie as means to show Vietnam vets that she was there for them and that even if there was some tension about what she did in that time, the compassion she felt she brought to her character and made a timeless impression. I wish they would show this movie more, because it is relevant.
She's very amazing! Have you ever read her autobiography? It's called My Life So Far. I'm working on reading it and have so far been finding it very interesting.
Page could act rings around the other 4, and should have won for Interiors. She was hauntingly amazing, and any aspiring actor that wants to see how it should be done, need do no more than to watch her in that role. It was the best performance of her career, and she should have won an Oscar.
Jon Feld I love Jill so much as well! ❤️ I have followed her for years! She is absolutely fantastic, so glad I got a glimpse of her when Jane Fonda won!! 👏 I wish I could go back in time and congratulate Jill in all she had done 🌸
That little boy, her son Troy grew up to be the lead reporter on the now cancelled Starz series "Boss"..(which starred Kelsey Grammar) and was the white Barber in Ice Cube's first "Barbershop" movie.
The most spectacular acceptance speech OF ALL TIME! Incredibly warm and beautiful and it came from her heart.

USA produziu mulheres fabulosas, belas, inteligentes, lutadoras, mulheres de fibra e capazes.
Mas se eu tivesse que escolher a mais bela de todas as que nasceram neste país, a mais combativa e determinada eu diria: JANE FONDA é o seu nome.
Perfeita.
Esta Deus criou pessoalmente.
Should've been Clayburgh. What an incredible performance.
Wow. Amazing woman. Amazing person. Amazing human being.
CARAMBA!!!! ESSA MULHER ESTÁ A FRENTE DO SEU TEMPO.... EM 1979, NUMA ENTREGA DE OSCAR, FALANDO COM SINAIS.... PARABÉNS! SER UMA ESTRELA É ISSO... ALGUÉM 02/2020 VENDO ISTO?
Jane is amazing!
Love you Jane!

What a Best Actress field that was--amazing!! The early fav to win was Jill Clayburg--then Rona Barrett on ABC the morning of the show said that Ingrid Bergman would get it. But I knew all along that Jane would win. She had won the Golden Globe 2 months prior AND MANY people felt that she should have won the previous year for Julia.
One of the best if not the best acceptance speech I've ever seen
She deserved it the first time, and she deserved it the second time. Her performance in Coming Home is a rich exploration of a senstive time in our history,but the project came straight from her heart. She made the movie as means to show Vietnam vets that she was there for them and that even if there was some tension about what she did in that time, the compassion she felt she brought to her character and made a timeless impression. I wish they would show this movie more, because it is relevant.
She was way ahead of curve. As per usual. Love her.
Hi Anna hope you’re okay?
Jane is one of the greatest gifts....
What an amazing speech! Legend 👑
Love her...
She's very amazing! Have you ever read her autobiography? It's called My Life So Far. I'm working on reading it and have so far been finding it very interesting.
You can see the influence the Farrah Fawcett hairdo had at this time….big hair with lots of curl & bounce.
Jane Fonda has great acting in Coming Home.
Jane Fonda such a beautiful woman and great actress my favorite
She's incredible, I could listen to her talk all day 😍
Back then, they wore their own clothes and looked great!
Super smart and sensitive wow!
Page could act rings around the other 4, and should have won for Interiors. She was hauntingly amazing, and any aspiring actor that wants to see how it should be done, need do no more than to watch her in that role. It was the best performance of her career, and she should have won an Oscar.
Jill Clayburgh is wearing a green Fortunny gown! Love her so much I wished she'd have won! I miss you Jill!
Jon Feld I love Jill so much as well! ❤️ I have followed her for years! She is absolutely fantastic, so glad I got a glimpse of her when Jane Fonda won!! 👏 I wish I could go back in time and congratulate Jill in all she had done 🌸
It's so sweet Shirley MacLaine told Warren how proud she is of him.
That little boy, her son Troy grew up to be the lead reporter on the now cancelled Starz series "Boss"..(which starred Kelsey Grammar) and was the white Barber in Ice Cube's first "Barbershop" movie.
