> ― I'd like an omelet, plain, and a chicken salad sandwich on wheat toast, no mayonnaise, no butter, no lettuce. And a cup of coffee. ― A #2, chicken salad sand. Hold the butter, the lettuce, the mayonnaise, and a cup of coffee. Anything else? ― Yeah, now all you have to do is hold the chicken, bring me the toast, give me a check for the chicken salad sandwich, and you haven't broken any rules. ― You want me to hold the chicken, huh? ― I want you to hold it between your knees. #Classic

Excellent studies in character development from the perspective of early 70s filmmaking. Nicholson gives a nuanced performance as half mad man, half genius. This one will probably go over the heads of those with flat expectations from years of bad watching habits. To get it you need to understand what makes a classic movie great. [spoiler] When Nicholsons character reacts to a traffic jam by storming out of the car and onto a truck with a piano, playing it as it exits the highway, you get a taste of the style here [/spoiler]

Not unlike its lead character, Robert Eroica Dupea (Nicholson), it's hard not to like and dislike this film. As a star vehicle it's superb, and it's also early enough in Nicholson's career that he seems to be playing the character more than that of his "Jack" persona. Hints of it peek through when he gets angry or frustrated, but it's all in the service of a character who is desperately unhappy with his life and every choice he makes. There's something timeless or generational in Robert's rage--you could see it happening in 1970, when the film was released, but you could also see it being at home in the 1990s or 2020. The result is a very human story, but as one character suggests, it's hard to love someone that doesn't love themselves.

A child prodigy-turned-blue-collar-laborer returns to his family home to visit his dying father. [spoiler] This experience doesn't improve him. He doesn't become "rehabilitated". The movie ends with him changed, but just as much of a burn out as he was before. [/spoiler]That's the point.
