Oscar winner, daughter of an Oscar winner, brother to Peter, still controversial to some decades after her activism, Jane Fonda has her best comic role since, oh, “Electric Horseman,” with “This is Where I Leave You.” It’s a dysfunctional family of adults tale with her as the tell-all self-help (parenting) author and matriarch whose kids — Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Adam Driver and Corey Stoll — are in various stages of maladjustment.

She retired for a while, found Jesus for a while, still is called “Hanoi Jane” by conservatives from her demographic (she’s 76.).
