Jane Fonda On Ted Turner’s TCM Legacy: “We Need To Know What The Greats Were Like”
- The loss of a media giant.
- Jane Fonda’s take on movie history.
- A 90s power couple vibe.
We just saw the news about Ted Turner. He passed away at 87. It is a sad moment for movie fans everywhere. He was the man who gave us TCM.
Jane Fonda hasn’t made a public statement about his death yet. But she did talk about him recently. She spoke at an event in Hollywood. She wants us to remember the icons. To see how the greats lived.
Jane and Ted were a total power couple in the 90s. Bold. Iconic. They got together right after her 17-year marriage ended. Their aesthetic was very ‘Old Hollywood’ meets big business. It was a mood.
Speaking of big stars, Trisha Krishnan is likely joining TVK and we are following that closely. There is so much happening in the world right now!
Ted Turner’s TCM legacy has a specific look. Grainy film. Black and white shadows. Rich, velvet colors. It is a visual feast. Jane says we need to know that history. We agree. It makes us better viewers.
If all this talk of old movies makes you want to treat yourself, you can nab $374 of luxe beauty for $125. The value is honestly wild. We love a good glow-up while watching a classic film.
We are also keeping an eye on Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Orlando Bloom. They are starring in a new thriller. New movies are great, but the classics are where the soul is.
Our Take
We think Jane is totally right. Old movies aren’t just for history books. They have a soul. Ted Turner saved those stories for us. It’s about keeping the art alive. Go watch something vintage tonight!
