doing coke throughout the movie
Rumour had it that Jack and John Belushi was doing blow through out the filming of this movie and that is why Nickolson's nose is plugged up when he talks. Anyone heard this?
sharealso, after watching this movie tonight I can't believe how bad it is from when I first saw it back in the 70s. My wife hated it!
shareJackie is basically a health freak so I have a hard time believing this. I doubt he even wanted to work with a blow head like Johnny. If Jackie was addicted to cocaine in 1978, don't you think he would be dead by now? I would think so. I trust the pengin to have a better moral compass than that.
<@:0)
Jack may be a health freak now, but his drug use in the 70's in particular is widely documented.
shareNo, I know people who know a lot more about Jackie than you do buster! He never used anything that harms his body for any reason at any time. My cousin wrote his college thesis on Jackie and he knows all the hard facts. You should be a shamed of yourself for trying to bring down the character of such a great man as the pengin.
<@:0)
I'm sorry, but you're the one that's wrong. In the 70s Jack was an avid drug-user. I've just read the book Wired, an exhaustively researched book about drug-use in Hollywood in the 1970s and it explains in detail about Jack's use of cocaine and this came from an interview with Nicholson himself.
shareI'd really like to see some exact quotes with sources. My friend knows his stuff. I'm sure his professors would have ripped him a new one if he had no proof to back up what he was saying. I'm sure he did a lot more research in a university than you did in your free time.
<@:0)
Okay, first off, lose the sarcastic tone because you have no idea what your talking about...
This is from page 360 of the book Wired...
"Nicholson smoked pot regularly and had, at one time, kept two kinds of cocaine..."
And there's alot more about this, that's just the from the first paragraph. He provided cocaine for John Belushi.
According to the citations listed at the end of the book, the sources include:
Jack Nicholson
Jack's assistant
Ed Begely Jr.
So what's left to question? You're friend may love Jack, but needs to face the fact that at one time Nicholson was a drug-user... And anyway, what's the big deal? In those days everyone was using.
Well I'll have to ask my friend because he assured me Jackie's been a health freak for some time. I am not a fan of drug use. It's also not a good influence on the younger generations that look up to these guys. If Jackie was killing himself, he should have kept it to himself and detested it instead of glorifying it. IF you are correct (and that's a big if) I am very disappointed as Jackie seems like such a great man today.
<@:0)
Don't hold it against him, like I said everyone was doing it and it was not as frowned upon as it is today. Jack seems to have cleaned up his act, but in his back in the day he was a notorious partier.
I don't know what your still doubting as I have provided the facts. Also just track the man's career, he starred in the films: Psyche-Out, The Trip, and Easy Rider all films that explored drug culture and he even wrote The Trip which is entirely about LSD. So I'm not sure what kind of research your friend is doing and why you insist on being so deluded.
He's still looked upon as an American Icon and sets a negative role model to people who like his films. I saw a few interviews where he seemed like such a great man. I guess some people just put on an act. I know what you're gonna say... "he doesn't use them anymore", but he if he did, chances are he still does. And I'm more disappointed not only in the fact that he would use these drugs in the first place, but that he would let it be known to the public.
<@:0)
I'm not here to discuss the merits of drug-taking in the arts, that is of no consequence to me. He can do as he pleases. I just wanted to make it clear that the man did do drugs, that is a fact.
Though I will say just because he has indulged in drugs that doesn't make him any less of a good man.
When someone of such high stature does something so stupid in the first place, obviously it will have a toll on those who look up to him. It's impossible to say he's a "good man" if some kid dies of an overdose because Jackie sniffed some stuff. I know I don't have any proof of this, but if there's even a chance, he has the responsibility to be aware of his influence.
<@:0)
I'm sure Jack never asked to be a role model, it just happened with time. It's unfortunate that ALL of his actions must be held to some unquantifiable esteem.
Whether indulging in drugs is "stupid" that's a matter of opinion. On the issue of a "kid" ODing and that being Jack's fault, well that's patently absurd. People are in control of their own actions, unless Jack shot up this kid with the lethal dose that killed him, it's ridiculous to blame him. Parents should be the real role models.
Anyway, I'm done debating this with you. You obviously have some hang-up on drugs and will not budge. I just wanted to get it through your thick skull that Jack was once a coke-head. That is a FACT.
Yea, it's a shame, but it's reality. Some things aren't as fair as others. His fault for being so stupid.
I think most intelligent people are on board that drugs are stupid. If a kid's overdose is influenced by Jackie, I don't see how he can not feel guilt and take some of the blame.
I'm still holding my ground that Jackie probably didn't do drugs and this is probably just defamation of character, but yes, I do have a "hang-up" on drugs and what sane person doesn't. If your mind is altered how are you supposed to use it?
<@:0)
I gave you facts about Jack's drug-use yet you ignore them, you, on the other hand, have no facts. ZERO. You are simply an idiot fan of Nicholson. You really know very little about your supposed hero Jack Nicholson. I am not trying to defame him, I appreciate the fact that he's experimented with drugs. And I've looked at your other posts on IMDb, you truly are an idiot. So, I feel like a fool for even attempting an intelligent conversation with you.
Further more, many people have done amazing things on substances: Aldous Huxley, Hunter S. Thompson, William Burroughs, Charles Bukowski. Drugs are harmful but some have found ways to "use" their minds on drugs. So suck it!
Sorry Buzz, you must be on a cold streak on these new forums. I won't bother looking up proof against ya, but I remember Jack admitting to drug use when he was younger.
I hope your friend didn't fail his thesis :)
Well I pick up all the pieces and make an island...might even make a little sand
By the way, I find it pretty admirable that Nicholson was a big-time drug user and cigarette/cigar smoker, and quit everything. I'm not a drug user, but that sounds damn hard to do...and to impact an entire nation with his acting while doing so? Gotta love it.
I do believe he's clean now though, but then again, I have no clue. We already have arguments on another thread, so I'll let ya duke it out with the other guy on this one lol.
Well I pick up all the pieces and make an island...might even make a little sand
Wow. Now I know who I'm really arguing. So now all of the sudden drug use goes from condemnable to admirable just because he miraculously supposedly managed to break the addiction? I'm sorry, but I don't see the logic in this. It's people like you that make excuses for these dead heads (either definition, take your pick) that allow more people to get involved with drugs. Just because it's your opinion that drug use has positive affects, doesn't mean it's true. The majority of the intelligent world has trouble with your statements. I mean obviously there's legal action against these people for a reason. Unless you think there's some big conspiracy designed to keep crack heads that wouldn't be going anywhere in life anywhere from getting to nowhere faster, instead of giving them tuff love unmercifully. I think I'll side with our four fathers with this one.
<@:0)
Well, let me add again that I'm not a drug user. I don't encourage its uses either. But you look at achievements made by the following people/bands:
Jimi Hendrix
Pink Floyd
Jack Nicholson (allegedly, in your case)
Janis Joplin
Chris Farley
The list goes on and on and on. I'm not saying drugs are good. I wouldn't advise taking them to ANYONE.
However...I DO think they have had huge influences on our culture, and on our source of entertainment. I certainly do not think Chris Farley would have been as funny as he was had he not been a drug addy. Pink Floyd, a classic example, and my favorite band...had Syd Barrett not been a complete LSD addy, and Gilmour a crack user, I just don't think their band could have pulled off the miraculous music they could even produce.
Let's be honest...drugs open up a new world. Yes, they're dangerous, yes they're dangerously addictive. But they open up things for certain people to create elements of magic some of us non-users just can't comprehend.
That's my 2 cents anyhow. Just an opinion.
Well I pick up all the pieces and make an island...might even make a little sand
Well entertainment doesn't equate with morality. Just because for some reason these addicts amuse you doesn't mean that it's moral. If you know about their habits, then obviously they're very open about it and most likely advocate their behavior. And now you followsuit as you are indirectly advocate drug use, whether or not you would like to admit it. Yes, Chris Farley was one of the funniest people of all time, but Hendrix and Floyd made stoner music which can't possibly be experienced to full potential unless you of course were on the same drugs as them. I don't like their music and you do, see a trend here? Maybe you need to look at your past and realize that you're habits aren't what you remember.
<@:0)
Buzz, there are hundreds of thousands, if not more, people who love the music of Hendrix and Floyd that have never done a drug in their life. Hendrix and Floyd didn't make "stoner" music, as you put it...they made something so artistically and musically creative--a type of music that didn't even exist in its own time--something that even people like you (who don't like their music, and no, this is NOT an insult) even have to appreciate.
Heck, I strongly dislike the Beatles for a large number of reasons, but I won't knock their musical talent, and the impact they've made.
All these bands/people influenced every generation, and many more to come, and just about all of the classic rock bands were corrupted with drug and alcohol use. Drugs are bad, everyone knows that. But to be honest, if people take drugs and make music that amazing, then I can't complain about it :)
I've played instruments all my life and only wish to have been as good of guitarist as Hendrix. Would drugs have helped? Probably, I won't lie. But I'll leave that to someone else. I don't want to hear about what YOU think MY habits are like...I know myself a bit better than you.
And yeah, most of these people were open about their drug use. Most realized that they had problems, that they were bad influences. You shouldn't banish them from the world just because they were addicted to drugs during an era when they weren't labeled as "dangerous", ya know? I myself think it takes courage to realize the mistakes you've made in your life, that made yourself and others unhappy...and to change all of it for the better. After all, everyone makes them.
Well I pick up all the pieces and make an island...might even make a little sand
Yes, they made music that no one else could make at the time because their mental state wasn't the same as real talents that weren't in that mental state. I along with most sober minded adults cannot relate to their drug induced music.
I agree. The Beatles were British trash (both musically and personally), but I feel their impact is the exact reason I dislike them the most.If not for their significant impact, I would just overlook them but because of their widespread influence, I must react to them, and I don't react kindly.
That is quite hypocritical to condemn drug usage but be a devout follower of a band. You cannot truly support the artist unless you truly support the artist's message. In this case, I can't truly support the trash because I cannot support it's trashy message.
Maybe you don't know yourself as well as you think you do. Maybe you're on the verge of trying drugs yourself. This could be a serious problem and as a man of God, I sincerely would like you to work that out and not let the music deter you from your other vocations in life.
I am trying to instigate change for the better. That's my primary goal. My first phase of completing this when it comes to people like this is to demonize them. I know it's harsh but it's all for the better. I'm just trying to support the message I know is true.
<@:0)
I knew you had to be some conservative freak, your values and taste in general are laughably archaic. I'm surprised you even know how to use a computer.
The Beatles are British trash? What are you some xenophobic monk? How are they trash personally? Like Jack Nicholson, I'm sure you know very little about them.
Minutut, you've given an intelligent answer, but you're wasting your time on this God-fearing loser.
Frankly, I couldn't care less about Buzz's thoughts on drugs, it's his opinion. But please don't let your ultra-conservative values blind you of the facts... It's your kind that scares me, because you let your opinions and values outweigh reality. You may think Nicholson was drug-free because you believe that is the proper to way to behave, but the truth is HE DID indulge in drugs. Any amount of research will tell you the same.
A conservative freak with laughably archaic values and tastes? What surprises me is that you came up with such a comedic-al line.
The Beatles were just trashy. They were from the ghettos of Liverpool, and the couldn't handle the fame in which they attained.
I think I'm the only one wasting my time fighting a battle which I should have won multiple times, but instead have been made out to be the loser.
Okay, fine. Let's say he did drugs. It's none of my business. But it's none of your business to criticize me for condemning him and to try to defend someone who is technically a criminal. I think the law is on my side with this one pal.
<@:0)
"Comedic-al".....It's comical! How many times must people correct you on here.
And how did the Beatles not handle fame? They only created some of the greatest and most influential music ever, both as a band and as individual artists. By any standards, they handled fame well and did the most they could with it. So just stop talking about music, you very little about it.
And for the record, Creed sucks. You call the Beatles trash, but Creed is okay...Oh man, take a music class.
Type 'comedic-al' in Microsoft Word. You shouldn't get any squiggly red lines. It's possible though, as it's not a common use of suffix in today's English.
The Beatles were not the nicest of guys. They were heavy into drugs and broke many laws. They preached rebelliousness and other uncivil activities. John Lennon may be the falsest idol in history. Two of them are now dead. Mr. Harrison died from drug related health problems. "you very little about it"? You sound like those guys on the Geico commercials.
I respect that you're not a big Creed guy, but you can't deny they don't have talent. Saying what you said wasn't called for. And unlike the Beatles, they use their influence for good.
<@:0)
Comedical is not an accepted word, but even if is to be used it is not hyphenated.
Two of them are dead now??? Lennon was shot by an obsessive fan, and you act as if that was his own fault. That is an ugly and incredibly offensive statement. If you knew anything about Lennon you would know he preached about love, God, and the working class. He was also firmly anti-war. Yet you claim, he preached nothing good.
Creed is derivative and incredibly bland musical act. And if you want to talk about a not so nice guy, look Scott Stapp of Creed, that guy is complete a prick. He was arrested in 2007 for a domestic assault. So you can throw him on your list of people you no longer respect, right next to Jack.
So go back to your church.
Yes, it actually HAS to be hyphenated. Look it up man.
John Lennon was a despicable father and preached hippie propaganda. He condoned drug use, promiscuous sex, and unpatriotic views. He was an avid opponent of God, if you've heard him say anything.
We'll just see about that. I've never heard anything about him assaulting anyone. You're just trying to dig up hearsay and promote them as facts. Next time I do go back to church I'll be praying for your helpless soul.
Again, you may not like Creed's music, but you have to admit they possess talent and creativity. And their message is a great one, I can't speak for their personal lives.
<@:0)
Once again I will provide facts, something you have yet to do:
comedical, no hyphen (and the accepted use is comical or comedic):
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/comedical
Scott Stapp, domestic assault:
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/252529/former_creed_singer_scott_stapp_arrested.html?cat=33
John Lennon did not believe in God, but he was not without spirituality. I did not say he was in favor of religion, I said he wrote about those themes. Unpatriotic views? So, you were in favor of the Vietnam War?
You have so many bad things to say about Lennon? And what are you a saint? You are truly an ugly and judgmental human being, and painfully close-minded. I provide you facts, yet you still attack my integrity. I am really at a loss with you. Look at all your other posts it's flooded with people debating you, because they cannot fathom your ridiculous line of thought.
"That is quite hypocritical to condemn drug usage but be a devout follower of a band."
I'm not sure what type of music you listen to, but I will be very surprised if you are able to name off a bunch (or any) of bands that haven't been influenced by drugs and alcohol.
"Maybe you don't know yourself as well as you think you do. Maybe you're on the verge of trying drugs yourself. This could be a serious problem and as a man of God, I sincerely would like you to work that out and not let the music deter you from your other vocations in life."
I'm sorry, but you definitely don't know me a single bit to make a judgment like that. I'm religious also, but I don't try to sway people or force my opinions onto them, and I certainly won't judge others to the point of making it look like something set in stone. You can say what you THINK you know about me, but in the end, you are going to be way off by making assumptions like that.
"I am trying to instigate change for the better. That's my primary goal."
I will make the changes to my OWN life when NEEDED, thanks. I value constructive criticism and any type of help people like to offer, but only those people I trust.
"I can't truly support the trash because I cannot support it's trashy message."
Not every corrupted band sends out messages of drug use, or violence, or hookers, or whatever you wanna throw in there. But if they do, it's for entertainment. I'm not going to attempt to change your opinions on the matter, and I'm not sensitive enough to be offended by anything artists say in their lyrics. I mostly listen to music because of the music. I listen to, and enjoy listening to, the messages they send out in their lyrics, but I don't take them to heart.
Just because Pink Floyd is and always has been my favorite band doesn't mean I'm on the verge of using drugs myself, even though probably 90% of their songs involve them...that is just an idiotic statement.
Well I pick up all the pieces and make an island...might even make a little sand
So you have never felt the urge to take an acid trip or take a puff of marijuana when sitting back and listening to your psychedelic noise? I'm not a music guy but I wouldn't trust my children with drug-induced music. Maybe you can handle it but many others cannot. If you realize that many others glorify drug use because Pink Floyd advocates it, then I don't see how you can remain supportive of them. I am not willing to sacrifice morals for the sake of entertainment. There is such thing as wholesome entertainment which doesn't present misleading messages such as Frank Sinatra or more recently Creed. Drugs certainly aren't necessary in my personal life, thus they're strictly prohibited in my entertainment.

Yea, 'comedical' is not a word. 'Comedic-al' is. I think you're on your way to the right answer. I would have thought you'd find it but now but I guess jacobstamper lured you into is world. Good luck with that, and I mean it.
Scott Stapp's on the streets right now isn't he? If he did anything illegal, he's payed his dues and deserves another chance. His message is still good and that goes a long way.
John Lennon on the other hand spread propaganda. The Vietnam War is irrelevant, many of his stands were very much anti-American and non-constructive to our way of like. I'm no saint... yet, but he's also a very judgmental person. He once called his son the product of a bottle whiskey. That's certainly not admirable. I am at least a loving father, and the president isn't trying to kick me out of the country.
<@:0)
Oh my god, you have kids? ...Now that is a scary thought.
shareYes, I am the head of a family. I take pride in that. I don't need you thinking scary thoughts about my family. Stay away from them, they're off limits.
<@:0)
Your family is crap. Your kids deserve the benefit of foster parents.
shareStop talking about my family. This is where it crosses the line. Stop now. If you want to keep talking you're going to have to stop bringing up my family.
<@:0)
You shouldn't have brought them up if you didn't want them mentioned. It was pretty dumb of you to mention them at all. I admit they should be off-limits, yet you brought them up, making them fair game. But go ahead and flag me, put me out of my misery with having to deal with you.
shareMy family is very important to me, I can't help but refer to them in daily conversation. I guess it's my fault for assuming all IMDB posters were good people. There is never a time when family is fair game. You're not looking out for the best interest of my family, and truth be told I have no idea what your agenda is in mentioning my family. It's already been too far. If for some reason my family reads these discussions, I'll have a lot of explaining to do about the hatred some people have and why people are badmouthing them when they had nothing to do with this.
<@:0)
Buzz, I truly feel sorry for your kids if you make them listen to nothing but jazz, classical, and Christian rock. I really REALLY feel sorry for them.
I am very curious as to what kind of music you actually like, seeing as how Creed was defamed for alcohol abuse even though they TRIED acting innocent (and by the way, they aren't a band anymore), and seeing as how Sinatra was a bigtime drug addict in his prime.
Yeah. Sorry.
So, what now? You now dislike Creed and Sinatra because of their pasts? This is a very long list indeed of people you don't like...I'm starting to think you're not only as sharp as a bowling ball, but you also suffer from severe depression or something that has to do with your negativity and problems with life. But what the hell do I know? I'm not a shrink. I'm glad I'm not now :)
Well I pick up all the pieces and make an island...might even make a little sand
I've loved the kind of music you're ragging on (especially The Beatles) my entire life, and I have NEVER done any hard drugs...
Maybe you've known some people in your life that have been into that, but everyone I know listens to the Beatles and they're all fine.
But according to you, we're all totally messed up, getting high all the time, being "rebellious"...AHH! OH NO! THE HORROR!
People on drugs are not on them because of the music they listen to! That is just absolutely ridiculous!
YES, there is drug use in the world, YES, celebrities use them too, YES, you have a hard time facing the facts.
If this makes me a dirty hippie, then so be it. I'd rather be a dirty hippie than a delusional creep who apparently thinks it's still the early 60s...
Take offense, I don't care...The Beatles are like MY family, I grew up with them. Maybe you should stop talking about my family...sound familiar? Stop being such a hypocrite...
John Lennon didn't die from his drug use. He was *beep* murdered. Drugs didn't kill him.
OOPS GOTTA GO I've got to listen to The Beatles and do about 13 lines of coke before I go to work. Ugh...you're obnoxious...
"They're like libraries of food, but instead of late fees, they've got soft-serve." --Creed
No, not every or even most people use drugs directly because of their music tastes, but it can happen thus making it irresponsible on the artist's side. I know they didn't necessarily ask to be imitated by fans but when they reach a certain point in attaining fame, they gain that extra responsibility. The Beatles are a perfect example of a band that didn't do their best to promote an optimal lifestyle for our American culture. The media can be blamed as well but it doesn't take any responsibility away from these drug-promoting celebrities.
My children enjoy the music which I allow them to listen to. How dare you assume I'm keeping them shut in from the rest of the world. They are given freedom, and we discuss issues such as sex, violence, and drugs quite often. They still get to watch the Disney Channel and go to a Miley Cirus or Jonas Brothers concert just like any other children. In fact, I go with them and we have a great quality time. I even took my oldest son and daughter to a Fray concert which was quite enjoyable.
Yes, Creed and Frank Sinatra did some stupid and immoral things in their history, but they generally did the correct things, and promoted a world-view in which I agree with.
Depression? Ha! Depression? You think I have depression? I'm not even gonna start on depression. Depression? Wow, I can't believe you brought up depression. You can ask any of my neighbors who is the most depressed of your neighbors and I guarantee that I will rank at the bottom of the list. Don't talk about depression.

OMIGOD....there are people in the world who are famous and don't share your so-called "morals" and nerdy old-fashioned beliefs! I didn't read all of your preaching, but the parts I did read were pretty out there. I mean come on man, get a grip, it's 2009.
John Lennon didn't lead a dangerous and subversive rebellion(or whatever you called it). He helped spread a message of peace 40 years ago during the pointless American occupation of Vietnam; The message of peace that turned American support of said war sour and led to withdrawl.
I NEVER post on boards. I know I should simply ignore trolls like yourself so you will go away,but your crazed right-wing fervor kinda scares me.

George Harrison IMDB died of lung cancer 29 November 2001.
In 1997, Harrison, a longtime smoker, was successfully treated for throat cancer
In May 2001, Harrison's cancer returned. There was lung surgery, but doctors soon discovered the cancer had spread to his brain.George Harrison must have been smoking marijuana all these years because everyone knows no one ever dies of lung cancer from smoking cigarettes.
OOPS GOTTA GO I've got to listen to The Beatles and do about 13 lines of coke before I go to work. Ugh...you're obnoxious...That is not true according to BuzzKardzrool because, you listen to the Beatles, you don't have a job, are going to write some graffiti on a wall, throw a snowball at a car in the winter, tip a cow and whatever else you hooligans get into.

Hey Miss Know it All of "Jackie" because you friend wrote a "thesis" paper, which must of got a horrible grade if you teacher did any kind of background look into the paper...
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0062395/ - Wrote by "Jackie" is a story about LSD and Sex.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063049/ - Co-Wrote by "Jackie" is a LSD trip with the Monkees
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064276/ - Jack Nicholson inhaling marijuana in this movie.
You said because he has experimented with mind altering drugs he is a dead head and a bad person? Oh oh oh BuzzKardzrool... How naive and small-minded you are... You obviously don't understand the curiosity of the human mind, because you have blindly followed what ever beliefs you have inherited... But some people embark on different journeys. Who are you to be the judge of a life that you haven't led? You are lucky to have found what you have, but some people don't find comfort in the same things, and so they embark on the quest to find what you have found, but within their own journey.
Don't be so quick to judge.
We're over talking about Nicholson. It's done and dead. My opinion of him is my business.
I know drugs pal. Stop insulting my intelligence. I've never taking an illegal substance, but I know all about them. Don't get me started on them. Those people don't embark on a journey, they make a mistake, yea you can turn it around. But according to your sources, he has no regrets about his actions and their effects on his fans. It matters pal. Millions of people watch his movies. You think young children are smart enough to know it's bad to smoke Marijuana if he's glorifying it? I don't think so.

shareso many years later and I just can't help myself from commenting on this. if for some odd reason BuzzKardzrool ever gets back on here and reads any of this I just wanted him to know that I usually don't feel sorry for stupid, stupid people because, well *beep* 'em, but goddamn is this guy one of the dumbest people I have had the chance to read on this board. if this guy's not a troll then I honestly do feel so, so, sorry for his family (if he actually has one). this man is what is wrong with the world and the fact that he reproduced scares the *beep* out of me.
the fact alone that he claims to have a friend in university who did research on him and still says he never did drugs and then if he does acknowledge he did, he just goes on a rift on how bad it is when the fuc ker hasn't even done anything himself to be able to judge. I'm sorry but this guy is a retard.
There are no more white horses or pretty ladies at my door.
Jack Nicholson has frequently admitted to a wide variety of drug use, during the 1960s-1990s.
Besides, if you really had any knowledge of the issue you would realize a few things.
Jack's best friends for over 40 years have been reknown drug addicts, Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda. Do you seriously think Jack could be best friends with drug addicts for over 40 years, without EVER doing any drugs with them when they were younger? Don't be stupid.
While they have both cleaned up in the last 15 or so years, they were all booze, coke addicts for decades.
And even though your whole "my cousin's cousin's cousin wrote a paper about Jack N one time" logic sounds very convincing, it just isn't accurate.
Biography Quote:
In the mid 1960's, Nicholson seemed resigned to a career behind the camera as a writer/director. His first real taste of writing success was the "LSD-fueled" screenplay for 1967's The Trip (directed by Corman), which starred Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper. Nicholson also co-wrote (with Bob Rafelson) the movie Head, which starred The Monkees.
Jack Nicholson:
"My point of view, while extremely cogent, is unpopular. . . . That the repressive nature of the legalities vis-a-vis drugs are destroying the legal system and corrupting the police system." - An obvious drug advocate.
On Jack's very own IMDB quote page, he explicitly talks about how he is vain and that its ironic that he is bringing about his own mortality quicker than he should becuase he abuses cigarrettes and booze his whole life.
And although i wasn't there, tons of stories out there, that he'd throw parties with a chalice of coke on one table and a chalice of pot on another... Of course could be bogus, but where there's smoke, there's fire.
