She coined the term “workout” in the 80s with her highly acclaimed fitness video in 1982. Actress and two-time Academy Award winning actress Jane Fonda hopes to capture the magic again with her Prime Time videos geared toward baby boomers and older.
The so-called fitness queen made a huge impression in home video with the original workout. But sometimes technology isn’t kind. Fonda’s big hair and Freddie Kruger-esque black and red-striped leotard was one thing with the soft focus of the early 80s video. Now Jane Fonda: Prime Time Walkout and Jane Fonda: Prime Time Fit & Strong won’t necessarily be in high definition, but they will be in the sharp focus of DVD, and on widescreen. The audience, on the other hand, may not have a problem with larger-than-life aged Barbarella.
