Description
Jack Nicholson started life in Jersey, a confused Catholic boy of uncertain parentage. After years working as a dogsbody at MGM came Jack's overnight break in Easy Rider which revealed him as an electrifying and entirely new screen presence. This biography tells the stories behind his great screen roles in films like Chinatown, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The Shining, Terms of Endearment and A Few Good Men which have made Nicholson into one of Hollywood's most enduringly popular, toughest and highest paid actors.
