> ― I'd like an omelet, plain, and a chicken salad sandwich on wheat toast, no mayonnaise, no butter, no lettuce. And a cup of coffee.
― A #2, chicken salad sand. Hold the butter, the lettuce, the mayonnaise, and a cup of coffee. Anything else?
― Yeah, now all you have to do is hold the chicken, bring me the toast, give me a check for the chicken salad sandwich, and you haven't broken any rules.
― You want me to hold the chicken, huh?
― I want you to hold it between your knees.

Excellent studies in character development from the perspective of early 70s filmmaking. Nicholson gives a nuanced performance as half mad man, half genius. This one will probably go over the heads of those with flat expectations from years of bad watching habits. To get it you need to understand what makes a classic movie great. [spoiler] When Nicholsons character reacts to a traffic jam by storming out of the car and onto a truck with a piano, playing it as it exits the highway, you get a taste of the style here [/spoiler]

A child prodigy-turned-blue-collar-laborer returns to his family home to visit his dying father. [spoiler] This experience doesn't improve him. He doesn't become "rehabilitated". The movie ends with him changed, but just as much of a burn out as he was before. [/spoiler]That's the point.

Sigh.
I really don't get the point of this film and its whiney man-baby protagonist who remains unchanged throughout the film. I mean everyone plays their roles very well, and its well shot. But why would anyone be interested in making this man's story?

Wasn’t sure what to make of this one. Doesn’t hold up for me in the same way as some other New Hollywood pictures, but it did have some striking moments of poignancy (not least the terrific downbeat ending.) Nicholson’s iconoclast character felt very of a time, in a way that doesn’t compare favorably to Bonnie and Clyde’s duo or even The Graduate’s Benjamin. The movie overall struggles to find its way, shifting gears dramatically halfway through and ending up feeling like 2.5 very different movies. (The .5 is due to a strange road trip interlude connecting the two halves that never quite comes together, even despite the famous chicken salad scene.)
