My wife and I watched the Jack Nicholson/Diane Keaton movie Something's Gotta Give. I was absolutely astounded at how good it was. Up until tonight, I have never liked Diane Keaton. She has always played to a whiney neurotic type. She blew this role out of its shoes. She is gorgeous here and very sexy (definitely un-Keaton like, in my book). After watching part of the commentary, I am also impressed at her comedic abilities.
As for Jack Nicholson, every movie I have seen him in, he gets better. Even though he has a reputation as being arrogant, I have grown to like his movies more and more. As Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert once said, he could be his generation's Humphrey Bogart. Jack is always willing to take roles that are do not glorify him and make him look better. As Good as It Gets and The Witches of Eastwick are two good examples.
I also felt my own mortality watching the Jack Nicholson heart attack scene(s). This is another shining example of a good movie, one that makes you think about your own issues.
Go out and see it if you get the chance.
