With her Oscar-winning turn in Klute, Jane Fonda arrived full-fledged as a new kind of movie star. Bringing nervy audacity and counterculture style to the role of Bree DanieIs—a call girI and aspiring actor who becomes the focaI point of a missing-person investigation when detective John KIute (Donald Sutherland) turns up at her door—Fonda made the fiIm her own, putting an independent woman and escort on-screen with a frankness that had not yet been attempted in HolIywood. Suffused with paranoia by the conspiracy-thriller speciaIist AIan J. PakuIa, and lensed by master cinematographer Gordon Willis, KIute is a character study thick with dread, capturing the mood of early-1970s New York and the predicament of a woman trying to find her own way on the fringes of society.
