This is a very interesting look at Jack´s life from childhood on - including his friendships and how these friendships affected his life. I enjoyed this thoroughly, so much, that I am reading it a second time!¤ 2) Hardcover Book Wild: The Biography of Jack Nicholson by John Blake. I would recommend Patrick McGiligan´s biography because it has the research and detail one would expect of a biography. This book, (I assume written by an Englishman since it was published in England and uses words like "chum",etc) is a composite of what has already been published on Jack Nicholson. Its even balanced and focuses on seminal events in Nicholoson´s life and his movies..What is very annoying about this book is the excessive description of the cultural context that surrounded Jack´s 60´s days...Way too much setting, frankly because there is not any new content here...If you don´t know much about Jack, this is not a bad introductory piece....Oh, yes the other thing about this book is way too much (previously published) information on Warren Beatty, Roman Polanski, Marlon Brando, and Robert Evans...the writer goes into great details on the problems in their lives...not central to subject of this biography...
3) Hardcover Book Wild: The Biography of Jack Nicholson by John Blake. Jack Nicholson is the most popular film actor since Marlon Brando, and as he swaggers well into his seventh decade, he shows no sign of losing any of his astonishing star power. Here, drawing on interviews with many of Nicholson’s Hollywood associates, John Parker pieces together a complex portrait of the star—his tangled and tumultuous childhood, his wives and high-profile romances, his brilliant film career, and his Oscar-winning triumphs in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Terms of Endearment, and As Good as It Gets. Find out what lies behind that famous shark’s smile—and be prepared to be surprised. Journalist John Parker’s previous books include Arise Sir Sean Connery, King of Fools, and Five for Hollywood. ¤Page Updated: Robert N.
