This post in response to a now defunct post, “Jack spews the truth and nothing but” in which the author lauds Nicholson’s memorable line from A Few Good Men… “You can’t handle the truth!” and a few other memorable film quotes.
I’d add to that list Jack Nicholson’s delivery of “Wait ’til they get a load of me!” in Batman. But in another stratosphere is this magnificently oh-so-Nicholson scene from Witches of Eastwick. In this clip, Jack Nicholson spews much more than the truth, much more than clever lines, he spews cherries…and this kick-ass divine query. He really wants to know!
Women. Was it a mistake? Or did he do it to us on purpose?!
‘Find a cure, then a vaccine….’

..and let’s not forget JN in The Shining: ‘Here’s Johnny…’
Our man Jack gets a good one in pretty much every film. How about As Good as it Gets?
“You make me want to be a better man.”
