    9-5 was the gateway to helping me leave my brutal Mormon husband. I watched it over and over- I bought and wrecked many videos of this film rewatching it until I knew every bit of it by heart. Jane, Lily’s characters and Dolly’s music moved me to rise up against an entire church of misogynistic men. I love these women more than words can say. Thank you for sharing this information today. Thank you for motivating me and many other women to rise up and find freedom. I still listen to Dolly’s music every single day. Keep going! ☮️🌹

    9-to-5 was not “before its time.” It was OF its time. That’s why it got made. It publicized stuff that women knew about, and were angry about. It was innovative, but very of its time. I was 25 yrs old in 1980. We were ready for it, loved it.

      The point being made was that it was ahead of its time in that it talked about or focused upon many subjects not spoken of so widely before as in a major movie studio. It was OF its time in that sexual harassmenr was occurring in the world but it always has been.

      @@flenif2247 It wasn’t just “of its time” in the sense of sexual harassment “occurring in the world”-it was “of its time” in the sense that sexual harassment was viewed generally as unacceptable and actionable.
      The first case in the US commonly accepted as dealing with sexual harassment, _Barnes v. Train,_ had occurred six years earlier in 1974. In 1980, the same year in which _9 to 5_ was released, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission established guidelines for sexual harassment, defining it, in part, as “unwelcome sexual advances.” In _no_ sense was the movie “ahead of its time” unless one can call _any_ movie that is first in portraying something “ahead of its time”-Hollywood, as is usual, lagged behind, or, at best, tracked what was going on generally in society.

    In the documentary about Dolly, they interviewed her friend and fellow singer, Mac Davis. He described a time when he invited Dolly to his home for a large party, and people immediately lined up to get her autograph. He was mortified, and pulled her aside to apologize, saying, "I promise, this is NOT why I invited you here." She said something like, "Mac, I've wanted to be this famous my entire life. These folks ain't puttin' me out. I love it!" Now THAT'S a professional. You just know it's gotta be tiring, and there's no human being on earth who could be in the mood to deal with that sort of attention 24/7. But Dolly plays along with it happily because the most important thing to her is making OTHERS happy. She may actually be an angel, ya'll.

    This was already a revelatory interview but when Conan mentioned how John Candy was everything you think and want TIMES TEN, he really hit the nail on the head. I was lucky enough to be John's chauffeur for some years whenever he needed a limousine and he sure was that way to me. And, if we were half a football field from the fences keeping the fans at bay at an event and they spied him getting out of the car, he could have walked a couple steps into the venue hurriedly but he walked all the way over there and didnt stop till every question was answered and every autograph was signed. We had long since drifted apart, but I cried like a baby the day he died.

Thank you Conan and Sona and Matt for this extremely thoughtful interview, with a stand-out human. I also worship Dolly and Lilly! Such a salve to the soul that these three have had such an enduring friendship, and that Jane Fonda, seemingly the person with everything, attributes so much of her own growth to these OG kick-ass WOMEN! I’ve been struggling with being a fifty-something, and I think I can say with all certainty that hearing this conversation made me LOVE where I am in life. Thank you ❤

      Another way to accept getting older is to think about those that are denied the chance.... My dear mother passed when she was 42, I was a kid and I suppose that is why it never crossed my mind. When I surpassed the age that she died..It seemed all the rest would not be taken for granted. At 58 and with a deadly and rare medical condition, I really take life one moment at a time. Not to minimize what others may experience, but to see it from a different perspective. Jane, Dolly & Lily are so alive with passion and gusto.

      Nobody expected much from "9 to 5;" Fonda was Oscar-winning, but she was ALSO "Hanoi Jane." And Lily Tomlin and Dolly weren't the stars they are now. But Dolly had wanted to be in movies her whole life, and her enthusiasm carried the show by itself. She wrote the title song and it was a big hit, and the star's chemistry was intergalactic. And you can bet that women EVERYWHERE cheered to see sexual harassment met with a younger, prettier version of "Granny Clampett" with a big huge revolver. And some of it was heartwarming, too.

John Candy wasn't in any of the scenes they were shooting that day, but he just came to the shop to hang out. He brought his wife and 2 kids and just hung out all day. He made time for ANYBODY who wanted to talk to him. He truly was what you imagine him to be...a lovely, generous, kind and funny soul.

    Not every work environment is the same. But in my 20's (the 1980s) I had to handle a lot of sexual harassment in more than one workplace. I've talked to other women my age and they had similar experiences. (not all of them of course) As a very young professional, my major stressor was dealing with that. I had moved thousands of miles from home, knew nobody, and had my first professional and very demanding job but sexual harassment is what took up most of my emotional space dealing with. I remember my mother talking about it. She had to quit jobs over it. (1940s-1950s) There was no light shone on it but it was prevalent in a lot of work environments. I find that "good guys" don't believe this happens (they would never do that) and the other kind don't believe the "good guys" exist. They insist men are all like them and you (the harassed female) is the oddity for not complying.

He's absolutely remarkable seems so genuine and down to earth and he lets his guest talk and tell their stories instead of cutting them off like other interviewers with their own stories. Plus anyone who idolized John Candy is top notch in my book. That man instantly makes me think of being wrapped in a warm blanket in front of a fireplace on a cold snowy day. He just makes everyone happy and I'd much rather leave this world putting smiles on people's faces when they remember me then sadness because I was a jerk to them.

      She was blacklisted mainly because she spoke loudly AGAINST the Vietnam War, at that time, Government , WAS NOT Really Challenged, even speaking up to your Parents was Almost unheard of. Jane Fonda, used her Celebrity Power for "The Good of All" and she always has, she received A LOT of Backlash too. From Hollywood, But I'll venture to guess from her Father, as well.

America was @ war with itself in those days, culminating in students being murdered by National Guard @ Kent State in 1970. From the assassinations of the Kennedys & MLK to the Nixon impeachment, it was a crazy time, with Americans (esp. young ones) rioting in the streets over both Vietnam & Civil Rights of ALL kinds. & yes, Jane was in the thick of it, & no, Henry was NOT a proud poppa!

    Interesting. Before my retirement, I spent my career working in New York City, and often spotted celebrities and stars just walking down the street. Sometimes I would stop and congratulate them or whatever, but I was busy too. Some of them were very gracious, others would get that look of panic in their eyes - oh no, he recognized me - and they would just hurry past. Believe it or not, one of the most gracious people I met was Margaret Hamilton, the Wicked Witch, and she was an absolute lovely person. I admitted that she scared the hell out of me when I was a child.

    2:12 Look at how Jane Fonda takes what was a lay up for self-aggrandizement in which she could congratulate herself for being “ahead of her time”and completely reframes the conversation to include not only a retrospective on sexual harassment but the tenacity of wage theft and the erosion of working and middle class earnings, corporate surveillance and the precarious politics of modern work.
    That’s a serious person.

    What a fun interview. Jane Fonda seems so genuine and lovely, a person who cares. In my younger life I wanted to pursue acting. I did a lot of background work on films. I started to see the same faces over and over again on production crews. It will always stick with me who were the nice, endearing stars and who just seemed insecure and nasty. I could name names of both after working on quite a few films, but I won't name the nasty ones. My hope is that I met them on a bad day and my impression was possibly wrong. It is such a memorable pleasure to meet a successful star and have them be a lovely human being. I totally agree with what Conan said about meeting one of his favorites.

    JULIA (1977) with Jane Fonda is my favorite film. But Vanessa Redgrave's performance as Julia shines in a film filled with great performances. Set in the 1930's, the themes of anti-fascism, friendship, art and theater are blended to perfection. It captures the plight of a writer, Lillian Hellman/Fonda, as she struggles with her first play. We see Hellman walking on the beach and in the background the turbulent ocean waves are churning like the thoughts in her head. The apogee is the fraught scene between Hellman and Julia in a Berlin tavern as Hellman smuggles in cash for anti-Nazi activities, and while Fonda is excellent, Fonda herself said Redgrave's performance was on an entirely elevated level.

But I thought she was great when she spoke out against the military establishment. She went to North Vietnam and saw the life they lived. She talked about how the whole village would get up and meet in the town square and do their Tia Chi exercises. She spoke about how much better that was than sitting on our butts drinking coffee. Then later on she did the workout videos and she had the most incredible body. Way to go Jane. You're awesome.
