Monster-in-Law Not Welcome in Kentucky
Apparently, people do care about what happened 35 years ago. And many are still hoppin' mad at Jane Fonda for her actions during the Vietnam War.
Despite its being the top grossing film in the country, an owner of two Kentucky theatres has barred Fonda's latest film, Monster-In-Law, from showing on any of his screens.
Ike Boutwell, who trained pilots during the Vietnam War, displayed pictures of Fonda clapping with a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft crew in 1972 outside the Elizabethtown Movie Palace to show his disapproval. The marquee outside Showtime Cinemas in nearby Radcliff reads: "No Jane Fonda movie in this theater."
Incidentally, Boutwell has refused to present other Fonda works at his theaters, as well as the controversial Michael Moore documentary Fahrenheit 911.
