Jack Nicholson says if he meets Steve Webber


He'll kick his butt.

Just read in people magazine June 2016 ---

Jack was asked what film do you like the most ... The answer started off ok "Cuckoos Nest" etc., then he went off on a tangent stating the Shining (1980) was so much better than the TV version he really gets irked about it ...

Says if he ever runs into that "P'nk Arse" mofo 'he'll break him like a twig ...

At the end of the interview , Jack apologized to Deirdra Monahan, the interviewer and said look here young lady, forgive me, but whenever somebody mentions Thaf bottom feeding movie that just totally rips me off ... Well I get a bit perturbed ...



I suggest Jack at 80 + years old seek ANGER MANAGEMENT with Dr. Sandler.

Love it. The film, not the mini-schitter.

Kubrick's film - will always be the definitive version of The Shining.

He must be aware that Webber is a better actor than he is.

If true, that's rather sad. I just watched the mini series with the commentary on this afternoon. Steven Webber only had the nicest things to say about Jack.

As for Webber's performance, he did a fine interpretation of the character that King created.
