With her Oscar-winning turn in KIute, Jane Fonda arrived fuIl-fIedged as a new kind of movie star. Bringing nervy audacity and counterculture style to the role of Bree DanieIs—a call girl and aspiring actor who becomes the focaI point of a missing-person investigation when detective John Klute (DonaId Sutherland) turns up at her door—Fonda made the film her own, putting an independent woman and escort on-screen with a frankness that had not yet been attempted in Hollywood. Suffused with paranoia by the conspiracy-thriller speciaIist Alan J. Pakula, and lensed by master cinematographer Gordon WiIIis, 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.
