Jack Nicholson its almost 72 years old, are met by April 22, 2009 - has had a very active career in film. Although it should be noted that it has not made movies in droves, despite being active in film since 1958 to date, it has instead sought to work on issues that it considered that would promote his career. And that has allowed him to be one of the nominees, he has received a total of 12 nominations, and won 3 Oscars.
But it has also directed 4 of his films, has produced 6, has written the script of 6, has implemented a 4-song tape, and in total has worked in 72 films as well as where is now working on "The bucket list" alongside Morgan Freeman. It is worth noting that when he directed, wrote the script or playing music, was in the early years of his career, which was the most productive in terms of quality but also is comparable to the actions he has shown recientement, although in another facet.
For many, their very successful film as an actor was when he played an inmate of a mental hospital in "Cuckoo's Nest," which won the Oscar for best stellar performance. However, his first major action that shocked many who like good cinema, it was the movie "Easy Rider" (Easy Rider), which was not even the star actor, but it was an excellent work of Dennis Hopper as an actor and film director and co-writer, and Peter Fonda was also the star actor, both playing the role of rebel hippies of the sixties. He was also nominated for the Golden Globes
A year after this was their first performance really successful, Jack was again nominated for an Oscar and Golden Globe for "Five Easy Pieces" (My life is my life) and in 1973 for "The Last Detail" in 1974 by "Chinatown" who deserves to win the Globe Gold, in 1975 won the Oscar and Golden Globe for "Cuckoo's Nest" in 1981 was nominated for an Oscar for his coactuación in "Reds" and then in 1983 won the Oscar and Golden Globe for "Strength of affection "and two years later was nominated for an Oscar and Golden Glor win for" The Prizzi family honor "and in 1987 was nominated for an Oscar and Golden Globe for" Ironweed "(Ironweed), then 1989, he nominated Globe Gold huason his role in "Batman", then in 1993 he was nominated for an Oscar for "A Good Man" and in 1998 again won the Oscar and Golden Globe for the film "Better, impossible" and his latest nomination Oscar was in 2003 with "About Schmidt."
At the time of his first great success, was accused by feminists to be seen as a male abuser of women, which only considered as a sexual object, and they cited for example in "My life is my life" that leaves Karen Black at a gas station while in "Longing for love" (Carnal knowledge) press and abuses the lovely Ann-Margret to enforce them to the edge suicide, but Jack was defended by pointing out that simply played the character in the story of each tape, and nothing else. However, as his private life is very short relationships with women, and only he was married from 1962 to 1968 to actress Sandra Knight and today that relationship was born actress Jennifer Nicholson, then a relationship with Angelica Houston. However, in 1070 took his son Caleb with Susan Anspach, in 1981 after his daughter Honney Hollman with Danish supermodel Winnie Hollman, and then to their children the actress Lorraine Nicholson in 1990 and Raymond in 1992 with actress Rebecca Broussard.
With Morgan Freeman in "The Bucket List"
But he also went to actress Maria Schmneider-one that struck and impressed audiences of the seventies with an anal sex scene with Marlon Brando in "Last Tango in Paris" - before working with her in the film "Profession: reporter "directed by Michelangelo Antonioni.
When in 1971 he debuted as film director with "Drive, He Said" on the lust in a university, his popularity has plummeted because the film was a failure. And to top it off, then stepped in as an actor in "The King of Marvin Gardens" playing the role of a character who was unsure of his machismo that contrasted highly male with a brother who played Bruce Dern. That performance also helped his career at the time, but today is considered a good Interpetación, who think contrasted sharply with all male characters, so audiences had destanteado then.
And as we noted at the beginning, Jack was characterized by not filming everything that was offered, because if so, take a date more than 150 films because it has never ceased to be active in the 49 years of experience in screens. And so, as long assumed that she accepted the offer of the role of Michael in "The Godfather" and "The Sting" because although they were a great success commercially, creatively considered not worth it.
Obviously when he was offered "The Last Detail" where he plays a Marine, did not put any pretext and then found his success because he was nominated for an Oscar, or as happened to "Chinatown" directed by Roman Polanski with a detective story , and then when he starred with Warren Beatty in "The Fortune", was feared to be banned in Georgia, United States, and prohibited "Longing for love" to consider pornographic. But those were different times, they do not compare with the freedom of expression current.
As for his character, Jack came to testify in the eighties that "... everyone is possessive: this is one of the things that emphasize the feelings between men and women. Of course, being too possessive is irritating for the person with whom one has a relationship. But the truth, I do not like sharing my lady. And I guess she has the same opinion. " But he warned it would not necessarily sign a marriage contract with his lady. Not that I am strongly against the marriage. But I find that, except for the purpose of an interview, not much attention has formulated opinions on these issues. Once things start to happen, you know what do, regardless of the statements made previously.
Jack, real name John Joseph Nicholson was born in Neptune, New Jersey on April 22, 1937 and his father Don Furcillo Rose was a major alcoholic who was already married when he met Jack's mother, June Nicholson, it was a cabaret dancer. The pregnant and even married her, no matter who committed bigamy by being married already. But soon the left and the mother who raised Jack was very young, and his maternal grandparents, with whom Jack was so long that I thought were his parents and his mother, his sister. And never knew, but even when he was famous, he discovered the secret Time magazine. " His childhood was lonely, after completing basic education dream was to seek fortune in film and began working at Metro Goldwyn Mayer as office assistant at the same time was studying acting, and when I was working in theater, he was approached a young actor and offered to participate in the tape that he was producing, Roger Corman, entitled "The Cry Baby Killer" filmed in 1958. And thanks to Corman film managed to be in the next decade, and that was when Jack wrote the screenplay for "The Journey", held in 1967, precisely on the "trips" to the drug most famous of that time de hippies, el LSD.
Escena de "The Department"
Su más reciente participación en cine ha sido en 2007 en "The bucket list" junto a Morgan Freeman sobre el encuentro de dos enfermos terminales que su desgracia termina uniéndolos en una amistad singular a pesar de que sólo se han conocido cuando están internados en el hospital, y a pesar de que los separan grandes abismos, monetarios porque Jack interpreta a un millonario, y Morgan es un viejo de color y pobretón.
Y un año antes, en 2006, había trabajado en "El departamento" sobre policías que infiltran a un elemento para tratar de capturar a una peligrosa red de crimen organizado.
