 Nicholson is a classic late bloomer - MORE MOVIE NEWS AND FEATURES - MSNBC.com
Jack Nicholson accepts his Oscar statuette at the 48th Annual Academy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles, Ca.
In 1975 he co-starred with Warren Beatty in Mike Nichols’ surprise flop, “The Fortune,” then reached his largest audience to date with Milos Forman’s “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.” The picture won Nicholson his first Academy Award, for playing the confrontational, aggressively gregarious asylum inmate, Randle P. McMurphy.
Although today “Cuckoo’s Nest” seems less like a star turn than an ensemble piece, with Louise Fletcher’s scarily credible Nurse Ratched frequently drawing attention away from Nicholson, the rebel hero of Ken Kesey’s allegorical story would prove a perfect fit for the movie’s star.
