Photograph signed: "Jane/Fonda" and "Bruce/Dern", B/w 8x10. Publicity photograph for the 1978 film Coming Home. Coming Home, which confronted the problems of returning Vietnam vets, starred Jane Fonda in a love triangle with her husband (Bruce Dern), a career officer serving a Vietnam tour; and a returned Vietnam amputee (Jon Voight) whom she meets while volunteering in a VA hospital. Penelope Milford and Robert Carradine play important supporting roles: Milford as Fonda's friend Vi, who convinces Fonda to do the volunteer work; and Carradine as Vi's brother Billy, a himself a troubled Vietnam vet. Jane Fonda (b. 1937), daughter of actor Henry Fonda, made her early film roles under the influence of French husband Roger Vadim, who cultivated a sex kitten image, as in 1968's Barbarella. Politically radicalized by the Vietnam War, she earned the lasting ire of many by a visit to North Vietnam at the height of the conflict. Her film career during the subsequent two decades was quite exceptional, however. She won Best Actress Oscars for Klute (1971) and Coming Home (1978), as well as nominations for They Shoot Horses, Don't They? (1969), Julia (1977), The China Syndrome (1979), On Golden Pond - her only film appearance with her father (1981), and The Morning After (1986). She also marketed a popular series of exercise videos. She was married to media mogul Ted Turner (1991-2000). Bruce Dern, born in 1936, the father of actress Laura Dern, earned an Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actor for Coming Home (1978). His distinguished film roles include Silent Running (1971), That Championship Season (1982) and Last Man Standing (1996). A frequent TV guest star, and a Hitchcock favorite as such, Dern had a series of his own, Stoney Burke (1962-1963). He also can lay claim to a feat accomplished by few other actors: gunning down John Wayne (The Cowboys, 1972). Lightly creased. 1½x¾-inch surface damage at bottom margin. Otherwise, fine condition.
