Picture Trivia
          Do you know that Henry Fonda (1905-1982) and his daughter Jane, both excellent and renowned Hollywood actors, had appeared together in only one film? This is On Golden Pond (1980), under the direction of Mark Rydell from the story written by Ernest Thompson, where they also portrayed father and daughter. It was in this film that Henry Fonda won his only Academy Best Actor Award (although many critics agree that he should have won in earlier films. He is on record the oldest person to win the Academy Best Actor Award. It was also in this film that Katharine Hepburn won her fourth Academy Best Actress Award.
          Jane fonda, on the other hand, won two Academy Best Actress Award ahead of his father: In 1971 for the film Klute and in 1978 for Coming Home.
