  4. Totally lovely, Jane. Looks like a fun party! (by the way, is that a weimaraner?)

    Sending love & blessings to you and yours…
    Keep up the great work.

  5. Happy Birthday Peter! You guys look great and look at Linus! He’s brilliant! Haha

  6. Absolutely wonderful,

    Happiest day to you Peter, I hope you had a fantastic day, and you ALL look simply beautiful!

    Many Blessings!

  7. you guys are like legends,and great actors, yet you seem like normal people. Jane..i think you are beautiful, talented and crushworthy. yet, I am 45 years of age, i have always had a huge crush on you. If you need a boytoy, and the 4,987,678 other guys are all talk, I would love to correspond. China Syndrome is my favorite flick with you in it. Reply please!!

  8. I finally read Peter’s book “Don’t Tell Dad”
    Very telling.

  9. Amazing. You both look amazing.

    • Thanks. That’s what good genes and money will get you. Being in love doesn’t hurt either!!

  10. Jane I absolutely love your new hair style… you always look so classy! When I graduated in ’71 I attempted to have the same shag cut/style that you had in your “Mug Shot”…lol I got carried away and it was rather exagerated. If I ever figure out how to email a copy to you – I will. It sure is good for a laugh. I know my sons get a kick out of it ! BTW Peter looks great too ! Cheers, Linda

  11. Hello Miss Fonda, My wife and I saw an excellent movie last night called Goodbye Solo Directed by Ramin Bahrani and the main character in the film is Red West. And I was explaining to my wife who he is. He went to Humes High school in Memphis and was a life long friend of Elvis Presley. My wife was impressed by the fact that I knew who he was. Then she turned to me and sarcastically asked “Have you written to your imaginary friend What’s her name” with a snicker, referring to you and I said “no” so then I started thinking about you and I wondered, Maybe if I asked you a question and you answered me then I can show my wife and have the last laugh. Here is the question and you don’t have to answer if you don’t want to. Did you ever in your life cross paths with Elvis Presley? Miss Fonda, I love your blog, I love the pics, You are a beautiful woman. Bye the way my wife and I saw the Latest Jeff Bridges Film Crazy Heart. Filmed in New Mexico. I hope he wins big. He deserves it. Great job. Thank you my imaginary freind. 😉 Take care. Leonard Quintana

    • I think Jeff’s gonna win. Yea. Love the man. Alas, no paths crossed with Elvis. Shucks

  12. Coucou Mr. Fonda

    Je vous souhaite un très joyeux anniversaire, 70 ans!!!!!!qui l aurai dit, moi le 20 février j ai fêté mes 50 ans, comme le temps passe….mais le principal c est d avoir l esprit jeune et de la santé, je crois que nous avons réussi, parce que la famille Fonda et les Da Silva ne font pas du tout l âge qu ils ont (hihihi), c est un coup a rendre pleins de gens jaloux!!!! je me permet de vous embrassez très fort ainsi qu à toute votre famille.

    A Bientôt

  13. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GREETINGS TO PETE!
    You and Pete look like you had a great time! … Jane ,I really hate to say this, but I think I see some dark circles around Pete’s eyes!
    I also want to say I see a BEAUTIFUL animal sitting with a lucky dog too. heh heh
    I am glad that you all managed to have fun without me there to amuse and entertain you.
    Kids, you know I like to be late with birthday wishes because then I can be the first to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY for next year!! Haha he ho!
    Sorry, but I really cracked me up just now… I suspect it must be the beginning of shack-wacky season in the Spread Eagle, WI Group W area!
    I send Peace and Love to all of you doves…
    Lawrence
    Ps… I am trying to get my avatar here fixed up with my Mr.Lucky 7 photo. I have decided to keep me as my own symbol for MAGICMAD WORLDWIDE on myspace. Have you got a page there? I could be a link in your huge network! more later…

  14. He looks pretty damn good for 70. Hope I wear that well. What’s his next film project?

  15. You look incredible!!!

  16. Happy birthday to Peter, and wishes for many more!
    Thanks to both of you for the many fine films over the years that have made my life more enjoyable.
    Keep up the good work. John

  17. Hi Jane, I briefly met your brother at the Lahaina Yacht Club in 1973 when I was living on Maui. He hasn’t aged, lucky him !! What ever happened to his beautiful sailboat, the Tatoosh?

  18. You look great. 🙂

  19. and your brother too , ofcourse .

  20. Well done girl Your hair, your beautiful face, your confidence — whatever you’re doing, it’s working. I think this is the best you’ve ever looked.
    Any chance you’d share the name of your plastic surgeon. I would like to have some work done on my jawline and my eyes, but would not do it without a good recommendation. Thanks. Sheila

    • He’s Dr Hutcherson. I have written that already for three or four peeps in previous blog comments. Guess you didn’t see. xxx

  21. Happy Birthday Peter! Great pictures of the party! Thank you for posting them. Jane, your looking beautiful as always!

  22. Hy Jane,Mrs.Fonda,Very cool Person,beautiful Lady, or whatever i shall Call u 🙂
    i Love your Blogs!!!i follow them via twitter regularly.
    I Read your Book and was so extremely Struck by how incredible and honest you are.i Read it in english (i am German) As i think The translation is often missing the essence of it! Well anyway.i Hope you are doing alright in your third act and keep doing what you are! Lots of Love from Hamburg,Germany xxx

  23. Hi! I just found yer blog – I really like it. Your honesty is refreshing. I wish you well in all your endeavors!

  24. “Genes, money and love” for us all in our 70’s!! Well said Jane!! I’d also add ‘luck’!!!..plays a huge part in my opinion. Thanks for giving our numbers a new look!

  25. as i saw the birthdays was a happy one! nices pictures, read the coms,and read your answer, that what genes and money will get you.being in love doesn’t hurt either! so it made me laugh and i send you a big smile! frederique dhenein

  26. Must have been a wonderful birthday for Peter, I hope he is well, I feel he has some great roles ahead of him. Peter must been one of the top actors and actresses that are underrated.Like some other actor or actresses that are shadowed by there mothers or fathers , Peter comes across as phenomenal and stronge. Is beloved by a cult but unknown to many.I feel thatPeter is universally beloved, yet so taken for granted, as a Actor.
    My best ,

  27. Jane, you look like you are 50 years old….God bless.

  28. Happy Birthday Peter! You two look wonderful together. 🙂

  29. I’m amazed how well he looks. The both of you!
    This is NOT how 70 used to look!

  30. Jane, you and Peter should do a film together! I’d love to see that. Just as your Dad played your Dad in ON GOLDEN POND, it would be curious to see you in a movie like that again. With Peter, a movie about family, about brothers and sister’s, about how time riches the bonds and relationships. He is such a Icon of the late 60’s. I’d love to see what Captain America would be up to now. A story about siblings who have known each other for life, sharing about how they are navigating the 3rd Act.

    The dream would that Robert Redford would be in the movie with you guys. Ya know maybe we get to see what Corey and Paul are up to now, since we last saw them in Barefoot. HAPPY out on the farm someplace maybe. 🙂

    Here hoping someone is writing THAT script! hehe 😛

    All the best.

    -Eric

  31. I love Peter, Bye
    Saludos.

  32. Happy Birthday Peter! Easy Rider is one of my favorite movies, and I just love the Fondas- you, Peter, and Henry. You both look fabulous!

  33. You say it’s Pete’s barthday.
    Well, happy birthday to he.

    Stay on groovin’ safari,
    Tor

  34. Belated birthday wishes to Peter! Seeing his furbaby, Linus, reminded me of Tulea. Where has she been keeping herself lately? Is there a picture of her and her cousin, Linus? 🙂
    Ciao!

  35. Good to see pics of you with your bro. Loved Peter’s book too, often tell people at the library to read it and they come back to me and tell me that I was spot on! Of course, how could it not be good….he’s a Fonda! Oscars soon, can’t wait….it is up there with Christmas Day for me! People know not to ring me or come a knockin’, fate worse than death! We get it here at night (delay because of time diff) a few hours after the live one in your night….if you get what I mean! Keep on going Jane!

  37. OMG..Jane, you & Peter look truly fantastic ;’o Best wishes always.

  38. Jane,
    I love the doo. Lady you look great!

  39. For a moment, even though I had read the heading, I thought that was Jack Nicholson.

  40. Hi,

    I never had the pleasure of meeting Peter, even though my sailboat, the Maluhia, was in the slip next to Tatoosh at the Ala Wai Marina in Honolulu in 1979/80. Peter’s boat was beautiful and I just finished reading the story of her Seattle designer, a rather sad story. And I had always thought Peter’s boat was a Phil Rhoades design!

    I suspect Peter has the same love of sailboats as I have always had. ‘Tis a good thing!
