It& #39;s Jack Nicholson& #39;s 83rd birthday. I have a crazy Jack Nicholson story.
In 2007 I saw that THE TWO JAKES (the last film he directed) was finally coming out on DVD. I said what the hell & sent an interview request into the ether.
Keep in mind, Jack NEVER does interviews

About a week later I was at an airport and got a call on my cell from a woman who said she was Jack& #39;s assistant. He wanted to talk.
He called me the next week. He was amazing. The conversation went on for an hour. I couldn& #39;t believe it was happening then & kind of still can& #39;t.

We talked about CHINATOWN, THE TWO JAKES, and the 3rd Chinatown movie that was planned. http://www.mtv.com/news/1573487/jack-nicholson-talks-in-rare-interview-actor-reveals-details-of-never-shot-chinatown-sequel/">https://www.mtv.com/news/1573...
We also talked about the Oscars, mortality, retirement, and Heath Ledger (who hadn& #39;t passed yet) succeeding him as the Joker. http://www.mtv.com/news/1573617/jack-nicholson-furious-over-heath-ledger-playing-the-joker-in-dark-knight/">https://www.mtv.com/news/1573...
A few months later Jack endorsed Hillary Clinton for President. I asked him if he wanted to chat again. And he did! In fact he hopped on the phone within a couple hours of me asking.
We talked about Hillary. http://www.mtv.com/news/1582690/jack-nicholson-exclusive-actor-talks-about-hillary-clinton-campaign-ad-this-woman-can-do-this-job/">https://www.mtv.com/news/1582...

And then we talked about whether he& #39;d ever considered running for office, Warren Beatty, and the Oscars again. And he lamented never meeting Heath Ledger (who had recently passed away). http://www.mtv.com/news/1582763/jack-nicholson-exclusive-part-two-actor-had-hoped-to-have-a-fun-talk-with-heath-ledger-about-the-joker/">https://www.mtv.com/news/1582...
