Jane Fonda just received some excellent news from Cannes Film Festival. No, the washed up actress didn’t win any awards, but she did learn that she’s not the craziest member of her family.
Her brother Peter, the star of Easy Rider, told reporters that he’s encouraging his grandchildren to assassinate President Obama. Bizarre, but true.
The Telegraph UK has Fonda’s dangerous words:
“I’m training my grandchildren to use long-range rifles,” said the actor, 71. “For what purpose? Well, I’m not going to say the words ‘Barack Obama’, but …”
He added, enigmatically: “It’s more of a thought process than an actuality, but we are heading for a major conflict between the haves and the have nots. I came here many years ago with a biker movie and we stopped a war. Now, it’s about starting the world.
“I prefer to not to use the words, ‘let’s stop something’. I prefer to say, ‘let’s start something, let’s start the world’.
“There’s no room any more for a sissy and, like I said, don’t forget that I’ve got grandsons who I’ve trained with long-distance rifles. We have to run like mofos to change this world.”
We’re picturing Henry Fonda looking down from heaven, giving Jimmy Stewart a little poke in the ribs with his elbow and saying, “I did a great job with my kids, didn’t I? They really turned out to be terrific people. Other than that traitor thing with Jane and the assassination thing with Peter.”
