 | One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest [Read More ...]
Description: A nice rest in a state mental hospital beats a stretch in the pen, right? Randle P. McMurphy (Jack Nicholson), a free-spirited con with lightning in his veins and glib on his tongue, fakes insanity and moves in with what he calls the "nuts." Immediately, his contagious sense of... |
 | As Good As It Gets [Read More ...]
New, in original shrink wrap! |
 | Something's Gotta Give [Read More ...]
Description: As upscale sitcoms go, Something's Gotta Give has more to offer than most romantic comedies. Obviously working through some semi-autobiographical issues regarding "women of a certain age," writer-director Nancy Meyers brings adequate credibility and above-average intelligence to ... |
 | Elephant's Child [Read More ...]
Description: Since 1902 Rudyard Kipling's most famous Just So story of how the elephant got his trunk has delighted children with its playful use of language and sense of high adventure. This new program from Looking Glass Video Library features the voice of Jack Nicholson, who in his most re... |
 | Batman (1989) [Read More ...]
Description: Thanks to the ambitious vision of director Tim Burton, the blockbuster hit of 1989 delivers the goods despite an occasionally spotty script, giving the caped crusader a thorough overhaul in keeping with the crime fighter's evolution in DC Comics. Michael Keaton strikes just the r... |
 | Fortune, The [Read More ...]
Description: It sounded like such an obviously successful combination: director Mike Nichols, stars Warren Beatty and Jack Nicholson, and a highly touted newcomer named Stockard Channing. But this slapstick comedy rarely gets off the ground, despite the prodigious efforts of all concerned. Be... |

Every October my daughter and I pick up a few spooky movies to get into the Halloween groove. This year, I had the pleasure of introducing her to one of my all time favourite horror com... |

 | Tommy [Read More ...]
Description: If you've ever wanted to hear Jack Nicholson sing (or try to) or marvel at the sight of Ann-Margret drunkenly cavorting in a cascade of baked beans, Tommy is the movie you've been waiting for. As it turns out, the Who's brilliant rock opera is sublimely matched to director Ken Ru... |
 | Chinatown [Read More ...]
Description: Roman Polanski's brooding film noir exposes the darkest side of the land of sunshine, the Los Angeles of the 1930s, where power is the only currency--and the only real thing worth buying. Jack Nicholson is J.J. Gittes, a private eye in the Chandler mold, who during a routine stra... |
 | Postman Always Rings Twice (1981) [Read More ...]
Description: In The Postman Always Rings Twice, Jack Nicholson teamed up again with his Five Easy Pieces and King of Marvin Gardens director Bob Rafelson for this 1981 version of James M. Cain's hardboiled novel of lust and murder. This version takes a much grittier (and sexually explicit) ap... |
 | Hoffa [Read More ...]
Description: Screenwriter David Mamet's script combines real people with fictional characters in an attempt to portray the important people in Jimmy Hoffa's life. Danny DeVito's and Armand Assante's characters are actually composites of numerous Hoffa associates. Director/co-star Danny DeVi... |
 | Heartburn (1986) [Read More ...]
Description: You'd have thought that Nora Ephron and Mike Nichols had remade Heaven's Gate: that was the critical reaction to this film version of Ephron's semiautobiographical novel about her own marital woes. The fact that they had Jack Nicholson and Meryl Streep playing thinly disguised ve... |

 | Terms of Endearment [Read More ...]
Description: Larry McMurtry's novel becomes a somewhat lumpy film as directed by James L. Brooks (As Good As It Gets). Nevertheless, it is entirely winning, with Shirley MacLaine and Debra Winger playing a combative mother and daughter who see each other through various ups and downs in love ... |
 | Mars Attacks! [Read More ...]
Description: It's enlightening to view Tim Burton's Mars Attacks! as his twisted satire of the blockbuster film Independence Day, which was released earlier the same year, although the movies were in production simultaneously. Burton's eye-popping, schlock tribute to 1950s UFO movies actually... |
