After several years of small roles and experimental screenwriting
during his early career, Jack Nicholson got his big break in 1969
with Easy Rider. The next year, his first lead role, in Five Easy
Pieces, made him a star. In the decades since, the twelve-time
Academy Award nominee has won Best Actor twice (One Flew Over the
Cuckoo's Nest and As Good as It Gets) and become one of the most
popular and respected actors of the past half century. Drawing on
years of research and dozens of interviews with his associates,
this critical study of Nicholson's oeuvre examines each of his film
roles, as well as his screenwriting and directorial efforts.
Personal insight is provided by Peter Fonda, Bruce Dern, James
Hong, Millie Perkins, Michael Margotta, Shirley Knight, Veronica
Cartwright, Barry Dennen, Salli Sachse, Noah Wyle, Monkees Michael
Nesmith, Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork, Adam West, several Apollo
astronauts, Hells Angel Sonny Barger and many more.
