After talking about meryl Streep, the most Oscar-nominated, let's look at Jack Nicholson, the prodigal son who once teased Aunt May (who was rejected, of course). Nicholson, who has an evil face, is the most nominated actor in Oscar history, and although he has not taken the role much in the past 10 years, he still topped the list with 12 nominations.
Jack Nicholson really didn't have the standard face of a Hollywood male star, but instead looked a little evil and cynical, with a hint of disdain in his smile and some neurotic weirdness. With his old and spicy acting skills, since he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 1969 for the film "Runaway Rider", he has been nominated for 12 Academy Awards.
Among them, 7 male protagonists are "Prodigal Son", "Last Details", "Chinatown", "Flying Over the Madhouse", "The Honor of the Pritz Family", "Aster Grass", "Perfection", "About Schmidt", and 4 supporting actors are "Runaway Knight", "Red Element", "Mother-Daughter Love", "Good People Few".
The most well-known of these films is Flying Over the Madhouse, a 1975 film that still seems like a classic today. This film brought him the first little golden man in his life, and also won the best picture, best actress, best adapted screenplay, and best director at the 48th Academy Awards.
Then he won best actor for "Perfect Perfection" and best supporting actor for "Mother-daughter Love". In 1994, the American Film Institute awarded him a Lifetime Achievement Award for his contributions to the performing arts.
Jack Nicholson has continued to perform in recent years in works such as Infernal Walker and Bucket List. The most recent film was 2010's "How Do You Know" starring Reiss Witherspoon, and has not been picked up since.
In 2013, foreign media reported that 76-year-old Jack Nicholson decided to quit the screen due to severe memory loss. But soon, he debunked the rumors through another media outlet, saying that his memory was not a problem, "I have a mathematician's brain, and I will continue to work until the day I die." It's not that I don't like going out (filming), it's just that people are older and some of their ideas change. The film industry is the greatest industry, but I just want to make the kind of movies about emotions and people that move audiences. But one thought that chills my mind is that maybe people in their twenties and thirties don't want to be impressed at all, they may just want to see more explosions, because that's what they grew up with. I would never make that type of movie. ”
