NOT FOND OF FONDA
A small stand against Hanoi Jane:
The owner of Hardin County’s two movie theaters is refusing to show the nation’s top-grossing movie.
Like many veterans, Ike Boutwell has an issue with “Monster-in-Law” star Jane Fonda. On the ticket window at the Elizabethtown Movie Palace is a sign that tells movie goers the cinema will not show the film because of what she did in Vietnam. Below the message are pictures of Fonda clapping with a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft crew in 1972.
The sign on the marquee outside Showtime Cinemas in Radcliff reads: “No Jane Fonda movie in this theater.
More than 30 years after the war’s end, Boutwell still bears a grudge.
“I trained a lot of pilots during the Vietnam conflict,” he said.
Some of his students died from rounds fired from guns like the one Fonda visited during her anti-war trip…”
