…Jane Fonda quoted in USA TODAY says she cries each time she watches the three-hour documentary called A CENTURY OF WOMEN which she narrated and begins airing tomorrow on one of her husband Ted Turner's cable stations. The show breaks from the documentary form by including fictional scenes of women who gather for a weekend and talk about gender issues.

Last night out at the Burbage Theater in West LA, Jane’s name and reputation were very much a part of a new work of fiction, the world premiere of a hard-hitting play, Paul Gillette's RED RIVER RATS about a latter day reunion of eight elite Vietnam pilots (Gillette wrote the novel PLAY MISTY FOR ME, from which the movie was adapted) if Jane hasn't heard about RED RIVER RATS yet, or about some of the, shall we say, unflattering references to her past, she will soon, though I doubt she will let anything in the script get under her skin at this late date.

RED RIVER RATS is strong stuff, and a terrific evening of theater, which I'll talk about more in detail sometime this week.

I surely recommend RED RIVER RATS. It has a solid all pro cast and it’s good.
