Brad Dourif is sorta doing a Jack Nicholson impression as Chucky, but he’s such a good actor that that’s not even the first thing that comes to my mind anymore with Chucky, he’s just Chucky
Rocky V (1990) might be uneven, but that flashback with Burgess Meredith makes the whole movie worth it. Mickey telling Rocky “get up, you son of a bitch, ’cause Mickey loves ya” still hits harder than anything else in the film.
Jack Nicholson says the reason his character ends up lobotomized in One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest was because he couldn’t seduce Nurse Ratched.
“He knows he’s irresistible to women. He expects her to be seduced by him. This is his tragic flaw. One long unsuccessful seduction.”
Russell Crowe on Gladiator 2:
‘They failed, and they failed because they didn’t understand what made the first film so successful: it had a moral core. Here’s the thing, most people want that. On the surface, they might go for entertainment, but if they’re going to love something and keep it with them forever, like that movie? …The love for that thing is because of its moral core. All guys want to be that man who can stay that strong, and all women want a man who can love them in that way.’
