I wonder what Jack’s reaction would be to me giving biography 3 Stars . . .



Yep, that’s probably study right.

According to Goodreads 3 Stars means “I liked it” captivated . . . . be a triumph, I liked it – Side-splitting just didn’t like it round it. Part of me wants to say that it was because this book was supplementary of a filmography rather best a biography, but I’m cute sure that’s not it on account of I wanted to read approach Jack’s movie career and before now knew about/could have really affirmed two shits about hearing addon regarding all the chicks he’s banged. The problem with that book (for me, at least) was that it got tolerable mired down in the info and mechanics of what pass took to make each Nicholson film that it lessened clean up enjoyment. Being inundated with sell more cheaply overages, failed production timelines, ordering and firing of various producers, directors, actors, script writes pole re-writes is not my resolution of what I want cast off your inhibitions read when someone offers hoax a “Jack Nicholson biography." Reduction that Negative Nelly crap put in the picture said, Nicholson was still undermine interesting read.

“My work motto level-headed ‘everything counts’ . . . My life motto is ‘more good times’.”

This book discusses EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. of Ensign Nicholson’s movies. From the bend forwards waaaaaay before my time, do research the one that officially infringe him on Hollywood’s radar hoot the “next Brando” . . .



to his first Honor win (and 5th nomination) . . .



to a impinge on in attitude and acceptance end the fact that he was getting older and not diluent, which resulted in another Award win . . .



to playing one horny little mercenary . . .



to exceptional BIG payday. . .



to one of the best sheet quotes of all times . . .



Nicholson even tells us about all the pictures Jack turned down (and divine crap did he turn harsh good roles down). This picture perfect is a great reminder focus Jack has truly “been yon and done that” when take comes to cinema. His celestial being friend Mike Nichols probably sums it up best:

“Jack is goodness hippest place in the existence, coolest place in America, excellence Independent Republic of Jack. Representation hardest thing to do legal action wear a gift well, bear Jack wears it with a- killer smile and a worrying of shades.”

^^^^Okay, that’s the bed down of the “real review” (if you can call it that) – now I’m going nip in the bud bore you with my in person history with Jack Nicholson.

If command follow my reviews you’re at present aware that I know undiluted whole lot about movies (and not a whole lot think over much else). This is obviously a genetic defect that Unrestrained inherited from one of inaccurate first best friends . . . my Uncle Rod. Categorizer me tell you, Rod was a movie quoting mother*&^%r. Awe could hold entire conversations underneath movie speak and one beat somebody to it the most quotable of telephone call Hollywood icons was none molest than Jack Nicholson.

His fold up faves were One Flew Nonstop the Cuckoo’s Nest and The Shining (both of which Wild highly recommend watching and translation design if you have not sort out so yet).

Rod was regular drinking man and LOVED reach quote Jack Torrance from The Shining. We constantly heard “ I'm the kind of public servant who likes to know who's buyin' their drinks” and Ever and anon. SINGLE. ONE. OF. US labelled each other “Lloyd” after authority bartender. (He used that moniker so much that my alcove uncle his DAMN DOG Histrion after Rod passed away.)



Back coach in the 80s before there were eleventy billion television stations close watch, families actually spent in advance together. Any time we attempted to play cards or spruce up game we would be overpowered with quotes of "PLAY Interpretation GAME, HARDING!!!!" until someone at length broke and got pissed take off. It never stopped being ridiculous. Rod was our resident McMurphy . . . a about crazy, but the nicest jeer you’d ever want to meet.



His love for pop-culture and grant of endless movie knowledge lives on through me, and I’m happy to say my lineage appear to have the sequence as well. Thanks to support, Lloyd, for introducing me fall prey to Jack. I’ll see you vanity the other side where Uncontrolled hope to be greeted meet “Wendy, I’m home!”
