SUMMER OF JANE IS HERE!

I obviously just couldn't get enough, because I'm back at it for a monstrous, 32-film bracket to determine THE GREATEST JANE FONDA PERFORMANCE OF ALL TIME. 

I couldn't be more excited. 

In an attempt to tap into my Millennial super powers, the first bracket is... A YOUTUBE VIDEO. Apparently, computers have changed since I was a kid, and even at the tender age of 27 I am clearly too old to know WHAT THE FUCK I'M DOING.

This video was frustrating. Confusing. Infuriating. It literally took years off my life. And I had to make it TWICE. But here she is, in all her MOTHERFUCKING GLORY. 

Behold, the VERY FIRST FILM INSTALLMENT OF JANE JUNE. 

​**no promises that the next one will be a video too**
