“HANK AND JIM”:
Henry Fonda & James Stewart

Friday, October 27 – Thursday, November 16

At the height of the Depression, struggling young New York actors Henry Fonda (from Omaha) and James Stewart (from Indiana, Pennsylvania) became best friends and stayed that way for the rest of their lives (despite political differences so extreme they had to declare a verbal moratorium), eventually becoming among the most respected and beloved of stars, and each embodying, in his own distinctive way, America’s idea of itself. 

Hank and Jim: the Fifty-Year Friendship of Henry Fonda and James Stewart, a new book by Scott Eyman (published by Simon & Schuster), will be available at our concession during the series.

Hear Eyman discusses the unlikely friendship between Henry Fonda and James Stewart on The Leonard Lopate Show

Reviews

“ESSENTIAL! A massive retrospective. The 36-film series let you see the ebb and flow of the two careers in tandem, how the lives form parallel lines of Hollywood history.”
– Farran Nehme, The Village Voice

“Positions the two stars as a study in contrasts.”
The New York Times
