Donald Sutherland spoke openly about one of the Hollywood scandals of the mid-60s – he told the details of his relationship with Jane Fonda, reports “Daily Mirror”, quoted by dir. bg.
Fonda and Sutherland fell in love while filming “Klute” in 1970, even though they were both married at the time.
Both were at the forefront of Hollywood’s support for the civil rights movement and opposition to the Vietnam War.
But behind that facade, the two were passionately in love, and Sutherland still often thinks back to their unforgettable intimate moments.
Rumors of Fonda splitting from her husband, Roger Vadim, who directed her in the 1968 film Barbarella, began circulating in 1970.
Sutherland has always maintained that it was his colleague who made the first move.
He then said: “We had already been cast, but we hadn’t started filming yet and one day she made it very clear, with a slightly provocative suggestion, that I had to go home with her.”
These statements marked the end of the actor’s second marriage to Shirley Douglas, with whom they are the parents of twins Kiefer and Rachel.
In 2014, Kiefer said he wouldn’t discuss the relationship with his father, but imagines him telling him, “I fell in love.” “I would understand too, these things happen,” commented his son.
“And when two people fall in love, they believe in everything so strongly and passionately that it’s very difficult to judge someone for it,” she added.
“She had the most beautiful breasts in the world at the time,” says Donald Sutherland of Jane Fonda.
She said: ‘I was with Jane Fonda at the Chelsea Hotel in 1970, maybe 71. We were in a room with a king-size bed and to the right there were four or five steps to a landing which led to the bathroom. There was a small window oval, from which you could see a lamppost illuminating the window, although it looked more like moonlight, so maybe it was the moon… I like to think it was the moon.
I was lying on my back on the bed when Jane came out of the bathroom naked. Moving towards me, her perfect body was illuminated by the light filtering into the room, and in that moment I stopped breathing. Everything stopped. Now that I see it in my memories, I’m breathless again.”
