      @@timetheory84 I don't know if you know who Studs Terkel is but he hated "Five Easy Pieces," re, the scene where JN gives the waitress a hard time.
      Studs: What kind of day is she having? What's the nature of her work? She's getting hassled by the boss, the busboys, the cook, the customers. And at the end of the day, she TIRED. ... And JN wants his food just right.
      I agree. For me, that scene epitomizes what I don't like about JN, regardless of the movie he's in. He's not at all empathetic as an actor. Not as far as I can tell.

The man was brought to tears during an emotional speech ? you call that acting ? Nah. Unless your maybe pointing out similarities ? I'm not sure I follow ?Jack poured his emotions out onto the table & laid bare his soul & all his insecurities for once ! This was so heartwarming, it was an iconic speech. Acting is most definitely NOT what it was ! Up front & close with the legend that is Jack Nicholson

      Jack & Nick are names for Satan which is why most huge Hollywood stars have played characters named Jack & Nick. Nicholson even played the Devil in Witches of Eastwick. The Golf record of 6+6+6=18 Golf Majors is held by Jack Nicklaus. When Jack said "You ain't seen nothing yet" perhaps he was referring to the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse - Famine, Disease, WW3 & FEMA Death camps with guillotines ? Jack also portrayed a Werewolf in in WOLF. I know for a fact that Rothschild funded archaeologists unearthed Nephilim Giant bones & have cross hybridized them with Wolves & other animals to create Beastly Monsters. They won't "Unleash the Beasts" until the government repeals the 2nd Amendment. They've cross hybridized species to create Dragons, Leviathan, Megalodon, dinosaur looking RAPTORS, Cat People, Scorpion hybrids that look just like the Beast in ALIEN, King Kong, Godzilla, Bigfoot is a Giant crossed with a Bear, the Abominable Snowman is a Giant crossed with a Polar bear.....Any Monsters we've seen in movies have probably been created by cross hybridizing species...imagine a Giant Anaconda crossed with a Black Mamba or a Cobra ? Book of Revelation began with WW1 orchestrated by the Rothschilds who are inbred with the Rockefellers, Windsors, Bushs, Kennedys, DuPonts, Morgans, Warburgs & other lesser known families.....it's all in the freaking family, a family of generational Satanist Vampires !

    Five Easy Pieces is my favorite movie of his, and I've seen almost every major starring role of his many times. He and Anthony Hopkins are my two favorite major motion picture actors of the past 40 years.

    He is, without a doubt, one of the greatest actors of all time. He personifies the acting standard all actors work to achieve. He’s done it with class and humility and has righteously earned a prominent place in the Pantheon of actors. I look forward to continue to enjoy his acting presence in film, television and theatre.
