Happy Birthday Jack Nicholson......80 today!

Can you believe it......80 years old!
I would love to meet him.......who will ever forget his 'winner takes all' performance as Randal McMurphy in One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest......my all time No1 movie.
My favourite movie star by a country mile, no one even comes close.......a wild and complex character off screen who specialised in strange and complex characters on screen.
Suffering from some memory loss issues nowadays and sadly is very unlikely to return to the film set. Spends much of his time quietly at home with friends and neighbours watching old movies and no doubt still recovering from all those wild parties and shenanigans he got up to for the last 80 years.
Estimated to be worth somewhere in the $400 million range!
Errrrrm here I am Jack.......ya can't take it with you.

  • A great actor. I too thought he was great in one flew over. Also Chinatown

    About Schmidt was funny and he was excellent in what women want

    Think you mean 'As good as it gets'.
  • King of Marvin gardens - well worth checking out.
  • The Pledge is one of my Nicholson favourites.

    Haha
  • Another fan here of "One flew over......." Some of the supporting cast in that film are just as good - Christopher Lloyd (without his white hair of course) plays crazy like its natural.

    I always remember the film trailer for "The Shining"..........seeing it on tv as a 10 year old freaked me out, especially the "here's jonnyyyyyy"

  • Love Chinatown. Isn't he meant to be in every scene or something?
  • I was with Addickted and a few friends in The Ashford Arms in Bakewell earlier today and we raised our glasses to Jack.
  • What was the quote about Jack Daniels in a film,
    "when you know Jack as long as I have, you can call him ?"
  • Superb talent. As Good as it Gets is an all time favorite.

    I'm sure I read that Roman Polanski really did cut JN's nose with the knife in that scene in Chinatown. Apparently, Polanski just decided to do it for real to try to lend the scene some realism. Nicholson, being the pro he is, just got on with it.
