 +===== Contrast =====
 +
 +Despite his gentle, courageous, and honest on-screen image, he was usually regarded as cold, distant, and frequently furious off-screen.[([[http://www.classicmoviehub.com/facts-and-trivia/star/henry-fonda/page/2/|classicmoviehub]])]

 +===== Democrat Or Republican? =====
 +
 +According to his son Peter Fonda's memoirs Don't Tell Dad: A Memoir, although Fonda spent the majority of his life as a Democrat, he briefly had a Republican registration (1999). Peter thinks Henry's liberalism during the early 1950s, when he endured a six-year hiatus from movies, led to him being gray-listed.[([[https://www.famousfix.com/topic/henry-fonda/trivia?pageno=3|famousfix]])]
 +
 +===== Henry And Jane =====
 +
 +He and his daughter Jane Fonda were the first father-daughter pair to be nominated for an Oscar in the same year (1982).[([[https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082846/trivia/|imdb]])]
