...Your shabby treatment of Jane Fonda filming A Doll's House [March 12] is nothing more than a pandering to that part of your audience that believes all feminists are viragoes and/or lesbians. Miss Fonda is a talented artist and a courageous person who deserves at the very least unbiased coverage by your magazine...

...Your article regarding the movie adaptation of A Doll's House has, I am sure, confirmed not only in my mind but also in the minds of many other Americans the fact that we do not need Jane Fonda. Ms. Fonda is not an actress but an activist and antagonist, i.e., antiwar and pro-Women's Lib.

He has finally decided to return home and face up to the rather uncertain but certainly unpleasant consequences. For her own part, the model has led a life of similar uncertainty and moral confusion. It is almost axiomatic that the two will fall in love...

...become better known of late for such otiose blockbusters as The Sound of Music and Star. Two People looks to be his attempt to get to a smaller, more meaningful scale, but he seems to be still out of touch with the most basic kind of emotional reality. Fonda, consistently underkeyed, and Parsons, forever frazzled, contribute what little the movie has to offer.
