Jane Fonda ACTING, ugh. Poor man's Norma Rae


She way over acted this. It was like she was trying to be Sally Field in Norma Rae. "Look at me, I'm such an actress!!" Her acting wasn't bad, it just didn't come off as natural. In every scene it was like she was angling for an academy award.

I totally disagree. Jane was perfect in this role, IMO.

I agree with you. Jane played Iris just right, with plenty of quiet nuances.
