Podcast appearances and mentions of Jack Nicholson

Send us a textUna de las películas más exitosas de todos los tiempos será el punto de partida de un complejo relato que aborda los límites de la locura y las complejidades del diagnóstico en siquiatría. En paralelo revisaremos la historia de uno de los estudios más audaces del siglo XX, uno que remeció a toda una disciplina y desencadenó cambios profundos en ella. Hoy, gracias a una investigación periodística, sabemos que ese estudio tiene importantes grietas y tal vez su historia es más potente que sus datos.Support the show

Kirk Douglas and Michael Douglas were the driving force behind bringing "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" to the stage and screen.  Ken Kesey's popular novel is brought to life on the screen starring Jack Nicholson and Louise Fletcher.  One of the greatest movies of the 1970's is highlighted in The Actors Room podcast hosted by Jeff Torowski.

The Scariest Movie EVER Made? Well upon its initial release forty-five years ago, not many critics saw it that way INCLUDING the author of the original novel which this film was based on, Stephen King.  But over time, this psychological thriller directed by the late, great Stanley Kubrick (2001: A Space Odyssey, A Clockwork Orange, Eyes Wide Shut) has garnerned not only a devoted following but a never-ending stream of speculation about what it meant.  Many love it for the memorable main lead performance by Oscar-winner Jack Nicholson (Chinatown, One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, Batman)  as Jack Torrance, an aspiring writer whose family ends up situated at a VERY remote location known as the Overlook Hotel....he's an aspiring writer but as the winter progresses, he starts to lose his mind.  Also with him are his beleaguered wife Wendy played by the late, great Shelley Duvall (Popeye, 3 Women, Roxanne) and their young son Danny (Danny Lloyd) who has begun to experience a sort of psychic power known as.....THE SHINING. :o Also co-starring Scatman Crothers, Joe Turkel, and Barry Nelson, this horror classic has launched spin-off documentaries, weak imitations, and loads of memes - let's head to the Overlook Hotel! Host & Editor: Geoff GershonEditor: Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

On this week's episode we look at a film with big stars and a renowned director, the notoriously fizzled at the box office. Director Mike Nichols tries his hand at making a slapstick comedy and brings Jack Nicholson, Warren Beatty, and Stockard Channing along for the ride in 1975's The Fortune. LAMBcast host Richard Kirkham (whose favorite movie year is 1975) joins us for our main discussion. We also have some great movie recommendations and a fun round of trivia.

Il fut un temps où, si vous vouliez passer une soirée avec Coluche, c'était possible, et sans payer votre ticket de théâtre, quand il était à l'affiche. Si vous étiez copain avec lui, ou le copain d'un copain, il suffisait de sonner à la porte de sa maison, à Paris. Ah ils sont très nombreux à connaître la façade carrée de briques rouges du numéro 11 de la rue Gazan, avec la cour jardin sur le côté gauche, derrière une grille où on gare les motos et mobylettes.Oui, il a beau être devenu une star, Coluche a gardé le plaisir, l'instinct de vivre en meute. Il est d'ailleurs interdit de prendre rendez-vous, de demander l'autorisation de passer et obligatoire de s'asseoir, boire un coup et accepter la bouffe qu'on va vous servir. L'installation parle d'elle-même : la juxtaposition des divans devant la télé, la série de chaises de bistrot et de chaises longues vous appelle quand vous entrez dans la salle de séjour, très éclairée. Il y a beaucoup de chance que ce soit Gérard Lanvin qui soit venu ouvrir la porte. Oui, le comédien qu'on a tous vu dans le terrible film, Tir groupé, et qui nous a fait rire dans Vous n'aurez pas l'Alsace et la Lorraine. Gérard habite là. Car c'est Coluche qui l'a emmené dans le métier, l'a tiré des puces de St Ouen où il vendait un tas de trucs. Au début Gérard conduisait la voiture, la camionnette, décrochait le téléphone, faisait un peu tout. Puis il a construit un café théâtre avec d'autres potes, Le Point Virgule, c'est lui qui y a fait entrer tout le bois des banquettes et du balcon. Puis Gérard a fourni des vannes à Coluche, pour le spectacle mais aussi les émissions de radio. Et même quand Véro est partie, Gérard est resté, enfin, un temps, on ne va pas s'attarder. Mais suivons-le, entrons … Le coude sur la table, une cigarette à la main et un verre de whisky devant lui, c'est Eddy Mitchell, bien sûr, le grand pote, avec Renaud, pas loin, avec un demi ou un pastagard. C'est le cercle rapproché des chanteurs, car la musique, ça le botte, Coluche, il aurait tant voulu être chanteur. Il a même monté un studio d'enregistrement dans la maison. Pour lui, oui, et que les copains utilisent pour enregistrer leurs trucs, ah ils se démerdent entre eux, dit Coluche, j'loue pas, j'suis pas dans l'commerce, moi. On ne peut pas s'empêcher de s'attarder un instant sur les casques de motos sur l'appui de fenêtre. Pourquoi il y en a tant ? Un pour chaque moto ? Non, un pour chaque usage. Enfin bref, passons, le présentoir à lunettes est beaucoup plus fun. Ça a commencé bêtement parce qu'il les paumait, ses lunettes, alors il en avait toujours plusieurs paires. Et pour rigoler, un copain lui a un jour offert un présentoir qu'il s'est mis en peine de garnir complètement. Ah oui, tous ses potes lui apportent un tas de trucs quand ils viennent. Alors, il ne les jette pas, du moins tant qu'y viennent, comme il dit. Et comme il faut les distraire, tous ces camarades, il y a deux flippers sur lesquels Mick Jagger et même Jack Nicholson ont joué, oui monsieur, et puis la table de ping pong qui remplace la piscine dans laquelle on s'est bien marrés mais au bout d'un temps, on a fini par ne plus y aller. C'est comme tout, hein, on se lasse.Oui, ce soir, chez Coluche, on va encore parler, rigoler jusque tard dans la nuit. Demain n'existe pas quand on est une bande de jeunes et qu'on se fend la gueule …

Tom Fleischman: Cinema, Scorsese & the Art of the MixIn this immersive episode, Steve Otis Gunn chats with Oscar-winning re-recording mixer Tom Fleischman to uncover the nuanced, behind-the-scenes craft of cinematic sound. With decades of experience, Tom offers a rare glimpse into the audio side of filmmaking, where emotion is built not just through visuals, but through every carefully chosen sound.From his early days splicing tape by ear to mixing iconic films like Goodfellas, School of Rock, and The Irishman, Tom shares personal stories and surprising insights from his legendary collaborations, especially with Martin Scorsese. The conversation spans the evolution of sound editing, the intuition behind great mixes, and why sometimes the hardest thing to get right is a single vowel.Highlights include:The challenges and creativity behind mixing films such as Hugo and Gangs of New YorkWhat a re-recording mixer actually does—and why it's more grit than glamourThe mystery and magic of cataloguing forgotten sound effectsBehind-the-scenes tales from awards season, including rejection and red carpet dramaThe art of “invisible” mixing and why audio is the ultimate cinematic illusionPacked with anecdotes—like Daniel Day-Lewis bringing intensity and precision even to his ADR sessions, and Jack Nicholson's Oscar-night wisdom—this episode is a must-listen for filmmakers, sound enthusiasts, or anyone curious about how the soul of a film is often found in what we hear.

Na een ietwat tegenvallende filmmaand hebben onze FilmFanaten toch weer twee tips uit hun tenen weten te persen. 'Lilo & Stitch' en 'Final Destination: Bloodlines' hadden genoeg positieve punten om als filmtop uit de bus te komen. Dit gold helaas niet voor Apple's 'Fountain of Youth' en Netflix's 'Havoc'. Gaat het ooit nog een keer gebeuren; een filmtop van Netflix?Erwin heeft geen half werk verricht en heeft zoveel als hij kon gevonden over regisseur Stanley Kubrick. Wat maakt Kubrick zo'n gevierde regisseur, en maakte hij zijn films niet onnodig moeilijk? Zowel Jeffrey als Erwin hebben hier een antwoord op.Erwin keek voor deze aflevering '2001: A Space Odyssey' en was ontzettend onder de indruk. Want wat was deze film baanbrekend voor de jaren 60. Stiekem hadden beide hem graag in die periode in de bioscoop gezien, maar zelfs nu is '2001: A Space Odyssey' een genot om naar te kijken. Maar hoe zit dat toch met het einde...?Jeffrey kon zijn geluk niet op, hij keek een van zijn favoriete films aller tijden: 'The Shining'. Het liefst had Jeffrey er een hele aflevering van ruim 3 uur aan geweid maar helaas; niet alles kan besproken worden. Jeffrey deelt zijn favoriete momenten uit de film, maar heeft ook een kritische noot over de regie stijl van Kubrick. Want na goed onderzoek kwam naar voren dat Kubrick hierin wel erg ver ging. Hetgeen dat toch een vervelende nasmaak geeft aan een van Jeffrey's favoriete films...Hier het filmpje van Jack Nicholson die zich voorbereid op een scène: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu3xxq5F3GwWe kijken vooruit naar de zomer; een periode die garant staat voor blockbusters. Al lijkt de maand juni nog even rustig te beginnen. Jeffrey kijkt uit naar 'Ballerina', het nieuwe hoofdstuk uit de John Wick saga. Erwin kijkt uit naar een film die wel op de nominatie staat om zomerblockbuster te worden; 'F1: The Movie'. Misschien heb je het al geraden, de volgende aflevering zal gaan over blockbusters. Wat is een blockbuster, waar moet een film aan voldoen om deze stempel te krijgen? Voor de volgende aflevering kijkt Erwin naar 'Jaws' op SkyShowTime en Jeffrey kijkt naar 'The Wizard of Oz' op HBO Max.

Slow motion movie watching, another visit from Beavis and Butthead, dancing in the living room, Dr. Sammy Davis Jr., things on my chest, George C. Scott as record label executive, Ishtar and herbs, the Michelob mystery, some legendarily bad boxing nicknames, a worthy documentary on Netflix, Tom Cruise goes on a date, Jack Nicholson has a drink or two, and the necessity of suspending disbelief. Stuff mentioned: Novocaine (2025), The 5th Dimension "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In" (1967), Hair (1967), Ishtar (1987), Stand by Me (1986), The Goonies (1986), Don King: Only in America (1997), and American Manhunt: Osama bin Laden (2025).

GGACP celebrates the birthday (b. June 4) of Oscar-nominated actor Bruce Dern by presenting this ENCORE of a memorable 2016 interview. In this episode, Bruce joins the boys for a refreshingly candid conversation about acting, risk taking, the definition of genius and the value of teamwork. Also, Bette Davis bashes Joan Crawford, Alfred Hitchcock “punks” Karen Black, Jack Nicholson coins a new phrase and Bruce attends the “University of Corman.” PLUS: Paging Dr. Death! The wisdom of Elia Kazan! The brilliance of Douglas Trumbull! Bruce “kills” the Duke! And “The Incredible 2-Headed Transplant”! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of the show we are beginning, albeit a little bit prematurely, our June excursion into the cinema of Robert Altman who would be celebrating his 100th birthday if he was still with us. And we are starting off with his anti-western McCabe and Mrs Miller. Over the course of our conversation you will hear us talk about how Altman fits into the landscape of New Hollywood, how he set out to deconstruct the form and bury the star under his aesthetic and perhaps the reasons why he did so. We also talk about the chemistry (or, ironically, lack thereof) between Warren Beatty and Julie Christie, the idea of watching a movie through a t-shirt and hiding a cultural commentary in a sparse and meandering deconstructed western. Finally, we lose our wits trying to figure out how to pronounce Warren Beatty's last name and we also, if you stay tuned long enough, end up sharing our Jack Nicholson impressions... despite the fact he was not in the movie at all.

For the final chapter of Disaster Month, we're beaming up to one of the weirdest alien invasion movies ever: Mars Attacks! (1996). This star-studded satire directed by Tim Burton packs in lasers, skeletons, and Slim Whitman—all with a wink to 1950s B-movies. But… does it actually hold together, or is it just chaos in a red-and-green package?We break down the over-the-top performances, bizarre plot choices, and the ridiculous number of celebrity cameos (Jack Nicholson, twice?!). Plus, we debate if the film is missing something essential, like, say, actual jokes. Is Mars Attacks! too scattered to be a true classic, or is it exactly the kind of weird that makes it unforgettable?

BAM! THWACK! BOKKO!!!!! Joining us in our dank dark cave this week is the excellent writer and podcaster Tim Worthington, who has taken us back to 1989 when super-hero films were a bit of a treat, and so was Tim Burton.  Yep, it's BATMAN.  Anybody need an enema, or having their rhubarb rubbed?END CREDITS- Presented by Robert Johnson and Christopher Webb- Produced/edited by Christopher Webb- "Still Any Good?" logo designed by Graham Wood & Robert Johnson- Crap poster mock-up by Christopher Webb- Theme music ("The Slide Of Time") by The Sonic Jewels, used with kind permission(c) 2025 Tiger Feet ProductionsFind us:Twitter @stillanygoodpodInstagram @stillanygoodpodBluesky @stillanygood.bsky.socialEmail stillanygood@gmail.comFind Tim:timworthington.orgBluesky @outonbluesix.bsky.socialSupport the show

Did you know there was a sequel to Chinatown? Jack Nicholson starred in, directed it, and unofficially co-wrote it. And almost nobody knows it exists.

“Here's Johnny!” Join your favorite TransAtlantic podcasting duo – Ian & Liam (with Megs checking in later once she arrives from Florida) – as we snowmobile into the Overlook Hotel for our 280th episode (B-Tech Kev's not here. Doesn't he get that all work and no play make Kev a dull boy?) and crack open Stanley Kubrick's psychological horror masterpiece The Shining (1980). We're trading ditching the swim team for haunted hallways and axing our way through one of the most iconic films ever made as we discuss: Liam talks far too much about a film that we're not reviewing today (but what else is new?). We correct a few political misnomers from last week, because facts matter—especially when ghosts are listening. Ian talks about the passing of George Wendt; Liam, not to be outdone, imagines the hypothetical passing of one of his heroes. Megs joins us and delivers a full-on mini-episode as she trials her new sidepod and recounts her real-life triumph over the forces of nature. We debate whether Jack Nicholson is giving a genuinely strong performance… or just letting his charisma do all the heavy lifting. Is there causality in this story—or is it all just vibes? And if there isn't, shouldn't that break the movie? Ian reveals who he's in good company with on this one—and who he most certainly is not. Ian also explains the origin of the iconic “Here's Johnny!” line to, well… everyone. Ian asks if this movie is trying to cram two different horror movies into one Liam swears this isn't a horror movie and the boys try to come up with a list of what makes a film a horror film Become a Patron of this podcast and support the BFE at https://www.patreon.com/BFE.

In some of Hollywood's best-loved movies, Jack Nicholson played jokers, sailors, inmates – even the Devil himself. But he never played by the rules. He allegedly mooned a crowd of thousands at a basketball game. His bedroom kinks were laid bare in the papers. He fought the MPAA and the LAPD. And in 1994, he attempted to establish his own set of rules when he attacked an idling Mercedes-Benz with a two-iron. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including sexual assault and child sexual abuse.

Its almost like even with a torn Achilles the dislike for Tatum remains a fixture for talking heads. Then, Arcand Fire dives into the rest of the NBA playoffs and some interesting notes from Caleb Williams and his father about his draft process in 2024.

Send us a textHave you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? Tim Burton's 1989 Batman transformed not just how we see the Dark Knight, but how Hollywood approaches superhero films entirely.When Michael Keaton was announced as Batman, fans were outraged. A petition with 50,000 signatures protested the decision. Even Batman creator Bob Kane expressed doubt. Fast forward to today, and many consider Keaton the definitive live-action Batman, perfectly balancing Bruce Wayne's sophistication with Batman's brooding intensity.Jack Nicholson's Joker performance remains legendary. After negotiating a percentage of box office and merchandise sales (earning him between $50-90 million), Nicholson delivered a villain for the ages - theatrical, unpredictable, and genuinely menacing. His iconic line about dancing with the devil still sends chills down spines decades later.What makes this film special is how it broke from convention. Rather than beginning with Batman's origin story, Burton introduces him as an established vigilante, gradually revealing his past through carefully placed flashbacks. The film's gothic visual style, Danny Elfman's unforgettable score, and practical effects created a Gotham City that feels tangible and timeless.Batman grossed $411 million worldwide, holding the record for highest-grossing superhero film until 2002's Spider-Man. More importantly, it proved comic book adaptations could be serious artistic and commercial ventures, paving the way for everything from Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy to today's superhero renaissance.What's your favorite Batman film? Does Keaton still hold the crown as the best Batman, or has another actor claimed the cowl? Share your thoughts and join the conversation!Support the show

Sean and Amanda return to continue their yearlong project of listing the 25 best movies of the 21st century so far. They discuss Nancy Meyers's ‘Something's Gotta Give,' the 2003 romantic comedy starring Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson, which featured some of the most realized and developed characters of the century. They highlight and celebrate Meyers's auteurist vision, argue why it's the last great studio romantic comedy, and remember one of Jack Nicholson's final performances that featured an incredible balance of his powerful charisma and uglier, stranger side.
