Watch the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood transform over the course of five days for the American Film Institute to honor Jane Fonda with its Life Achievement Award.



Hollywood turned out in force last week to fete the actress, activist and fitness guru Jane Fonda, who was honored with AFI’s 42nd Life Achievement Award.

The star-studded black-tie event was marked by emotional stories from friends and colleagues, leavened with moments of humor and capped by Fonda’s own candid reflections and reminiscences.

An edited version of the show will air June 14 on TNT and in August on TCM, but Fonda fans can relive the festivities now via the Times’ time-lapse video, viewable above. The five-minute movie shows the transformation of the Dolby Theatre over the course of five days and culminates with the glitzy ceremony.

  1. Simply Amazing.

  2. After watching this (wait, I watched the full version: DVR’d it), I went to audible.com and searched for the audio version of your autobiographical book, “My Life So Far”: bingo! I’m so glad I did. I wanted to hear more and learn more — and there, amazingly, was the wizened voice of a storyteller waiting for me when I popped in my headphones and sat back on my sofa at 11:00 p.m. As of this writing, I’m still caught in your web of enchantment: on chapter 34.

  3. Jane congratulations on receiving this exemplary Life Achievement Award.

  4. Jane, congratulations on the award! (6 years post the event, but still :)) is there a place where one can watch the full ceremony? I was able to find several videos on YouTube, but full version is not available. Tried to search internet – no luck(((
