![THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION (1994) [REACTION] Get Busy Livin or Get Busy Dyin! First Time Watching](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Ijv-nPWowHw/mqdefault.jpg)
My wife has stage 4 ovarian cancer. I haven't seen this movie for several years but your reaction,Amber, at the end brought me to tears. We are making her bucket list and will see how much we can do together.
😢my husband, stage 4 kidney cancer. I hadn’t seen this in a few years although I’ve always loved it. But it hits different now for sure. I cried a lot more this time. The best to you and your wife. I hope you have fun making memories.
James, whatever it takes try to go for it. Cancer took my Heileen in one month, with the last 11 days in a coma. It's never too late, until it is. Good luck and God bless. ❤❤❤
My most sincere condolences. My oldest niece and a close friend both passed away recently from ovarian cancer.
My heart breaks to hear so many suffering or losing loved ones. Im dealing with complicated Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome and recovering from two surgeries from little over a wk ago. Ive started my bucket list, just seems like too much i still want to do. I wish ur family only the best, praying for healing and Blessings of Peace.
@@cog4life I wish ur family only the best, praying for healing and Blessings of Peace. Making memories is the best thing we can do with eachother in this short life. Blessings
"As Good As It Gets" (1997) is a romantic comedy drama in which a man with many psychological issues improves himself after interacting with some new people. Nicholson won the Oscar for Best Actor, Helen Hunt won the Oscar for Best Actress, Greg Kinnear was Oscar nominated for Best Supporting Actor, the movie was Oscar nominated for Best Picture, and Cuba Gooding, Jr. even plays a small support role. One more to see someday.
Ooh DEFINITELY A MUST SEE!
I agree with your suggestion, "As Good as It Gets" IS a lovely romantic, comedy drama and. Jack Nicholson as Melvin and Helen Hunt (from Twister) as Carol and yes, Greg Kinnear as Simon made that movie so much fun to watch! That is A MUST SEE for Jay and Amber to watch soon we hope, I believe they would love it too!
Yes! Please! Please watch As Good As It Gets. All three of the lead actors are absolutely phenomenal. And Cuba
Gooding Jr is amazing in his role, as well.
100,000% this!
One of my favourite films
This movie makes you laugh, cry, and think about things a little differently ❤️
Funny how I already was thinking reflectively, and your comment was first 😊
The line “ My main man Ray “ is from the movie Rain Man . Carter knew all these random facts so I think that is why he kept calling him Ray!
OMG That went right over my head! It's so obvious now you said it!
And by the way, Rain Man would be an excellent movie for a reaction...
one flew over the cuckoo nest starring jack nicholson was a classic!!
These men are golden actors. You guys haven't even scratched the service of their amazing movies/talents. 👏The one movie that comes to mind when I see Jack Nicholson is "As Good As it Gets" I can't wait until you guys reach that one. Thank you so much for this reaction.
Absolutely! AS GOOD AS IT GETS is such a good movie!!
There are so many! From Five Easy Pieces to The Pledge. There are some clunkers, but honestly, he has been an inspiration to generations of actors.
Somethings Gotta Give is another good one of his. It's nice to see him not play the villain sometimes 🙂
Nicholson was perfect for "As Goos As It Gets".
As good as it gets is an absolute classic. One of Jacks best IMO.
The assistant was Sean Hayes he was in the tv series Will and Grace , he was recently on Broadway and won a Tony Award for his performance!!
Loved Jack! Just Jack! 😊
He also won an Emmy for Will & Grace.
Morgan Freeman has been in so many great movies. But I remember him when I was a little kid in the mid 70’s when he was on the PBS tv show The Electric Company.
Being teachers, you should watch him in the movie Lean On Me, based on a true story.
Easy Reader!
After I saw this movie for this first time, I created my own bucket list. Out of 30, I have only 2 things left on mine.
I love this movie, but I can't ever think of anything I want to go do before I die. I don't really have any passions or ambitions like that. I'm pretty happy just doing whatever. Very cool that you've done so many on your list! :)
Two of the great giants of film! Jack Nicholson has been in 58 movies and Morgan Freeman has been in 104. You kids have some work to do!! 😉🤞🎬
Because of the 6 Degrees of Separation game, I would've thought Kevin Bacon's been in the most movies, but he's only been in about 70 so far. The record holder is Eric Roberts (Julia Roberts' brother) at 455 movies. The one movie of his I've watched the most is Final Analysis. Of course, Eric's not usually the leading man in most of the movies he's been in the way Jack and Morgan are, which is how he's been able to do so many in his career.
Yeah, they've got quite the list of movies to get through! Lol :)
@xzonia1 yeah Eric...prolific, but I'd dare say probably 6 are worth watching. Lol
Freeman has also hosted many History Chanel series.
And Rob Reiner is a brilliant director!
"Terms Of Endearment" (1983) starring Shirley MacLaine, who also starred in "Steel Magnolias" which you guys have watched on your channel ( she played Weezer), Debra Winger and Jack Nicolson. It is a moving and enjoyable film I really hope you react to someday.
I'd also love to see a Terms of Endearments reaction.
This was one of my moms favorite movies. One year ago today she was coming home from dinner for my father and died in a car accident. I came on youtube to see how others react to it. and you post this today of all days. I don't know what fate cruel or merciful life has in store but I wish to try to live a little more like those guys. If only because that's what she wanted.
I'm sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry for your loss. I lost mom before we could take the trip to Greece we planned, and then my partner, who never got to see the place I'd thought we'd retire to. It's taken a while, but I'm finally starting to think about the future again, and this movie is a good reminder of why it's important.
Your Mom was saying hi to you. It's what my Mom does when I hear "Take it to the Limit" from the Eagles. Say hi back and feel the warmth. (I am 13 years in and I still miss her like air, but these little gems come along to allow you to communicate to her. ☺)
Sorry for your loss, I lost my dad almost 2 years ago
I knew y’all would love it! Phenomenal performances by both. RIP to your loved ones…❤
Jack Nicholson movies to watch. “The Departed” “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” “Chinatown” “Batman” “As Good As It Gets” “Terms of Endearment”
All great movies but I wish more reactors would react to Terms of Endearment . Actually I’ve never seen one react to it .
Rob Reiner, the director, is one you've watched a lot of movies from already! The Princess Bride, Stand By Me, When Harry Met Sally, Spinal Tap, A Few Good Men, Misery, all incredible Rob Reiner movies! He's really one of the best directors. Next Rob Reiner movie: Sleepless in Seattle....Tom Hanks & Meg Ryan, a very funny, sweet rom com.
YES!!!!
I can relate to that, I worked 45 years to provide for my family and I’m 60 now and still working to just survive now but my kids are working and happy so that makes me happy and I get to visit them every couple years. I’m in California and they are in Oklahoma. They grew up out here and moved there for better life than here.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🤠
Carter describing his adult life (to Edward) was basically a living embodiment of Harry Chapin's "Cats in the Cradle" (great song from the '70s). I was in the hospital recently for surgery (not for cancer) and as I was being put under, I joked with one of the nurses saying, "if you have to move someone into my room, please try and make sure his name is Edward Cole." She initially didn't understand the reference. After I woke up in my room, another nurse told me the surgical nurse finally got my meaning but had never actually seen this movie, and was going to try and watch it on her next day off.
Jordan, don't feel too bad about being brought to tears. I don't care how much of a "man" you are, this movie is one of those that will do it every time. I have this movie on disc and have watched it MANY times. And, even watching your UA-cam reaction, it brings more than A tear to my eye. And you're right; this movie is an important one to see irregardless of the stage in life you're in.
"The Lion Sleeps Tonight" isn't a *The
Lion King* song. Timon just sings it to
tell us why Simba isn't with them? And
cuz it's funny! The song started in the
'30s and became a pop hit in the '60s.
The Lion King is 1994. 26:00
Two amazing & legendary actors (Freeman & Nicholson) in a great film👏👏 Definitely worth the watch, Thank you❣️
Jack Nickelson also great in "Mars attacks", "As good as it gets", "Batman" (1989), "The witches of Eastwick", "One flew over the cuckoo's nest" etc etc
Morgan Freeman also great in "Seven", "Amistad", "Along came a spider" etc etc
Morgan & Nickelson is such a great duo, other great pairings are Schwarzenegger & Devito in "Twins" , Nolte & Murphy in "48 hours", Aykroyd & Goodman in "Blues brothers 2000" an Gibson & Glover in "Lethal weapon" (even more good duo's "Dumb and dumber", "Bill & ted", "Dude where's my car?", "Mr&mrs Smith", "Scent of a woman", "Bad boys")
Check Jack out in :
As Good As It Gets
Along with Helen Hunt (from Twister)
They both won Oscar’s for this one!!
Phenomenal movie!!
Touching reaction guys, you see why Jack has been nominated for an Oscar 12 times and won 3 ? For a couple more films of Jack , I would check out As good as it gets and One flew over the cuckoo's nest. Jack won Oscars for both those movies. In As Good as it Gets, Jack plays a man with OCD and is even more blunt than in this film. And for Morgan I would suggest Driving Miss Daisy, the actress who played Miss Daisy, Jessica Tandy who was 80 at that time, won the Oscar for her role. Morgans character in Driving Miss Daisy developed a deeply touching friendship with Miss Daisy by the end of the film. Jack hasnt acted since about 2010, but if you watch the LA Lakers, you can usually spot him center court as he has been their number one fan for over 50 years.
Watch Terms of Endearment. You will love ❤️ this. It will make you cry
You two can answer the 2nd question, Have you brought joy to others?....a big YES!! You bring joy to us through your movie and music channels, you're special people. Thank you!
The significance of this film is exceptional. Currently, I am battling cancer at 53, spending my time going in and out of the oncology ward, and I must say, it is not a pleasant experience. Sadly, I have no family members who can come and visit me, and it seems like my so-called friends have abandoned me as well, the moment they found out about my condition. However, I am fortunate to have my caring wife by my side. The presence of cancer in one's life somehow brings forth gratitude, as it helps us realize the true importance of things. Money, career, and material possessions hold no value in comparison. Instead, we should cherish our loved ones, embrace the wonders of the outdoors, and fill our days with laughter and fun. Wasting our precious time on stress and arguments serves no purpose in the grand scheme of life.
Sending you love, comfort, and healing thoughts. Hang in there!
Yeah, most people hate spending time around others when they're ill and disappear. I found that out in my 20's when my health took a turn for the worse. I'm 52 now and can count my friends on one hand, but they're very good friends. Illness lets you know who will truly be there for you, and I do my best to let them know I appreciate and love them. May you find strength to see you through this difficult experience in your life, and make a point to let your wife know how much she means to you now and then.
Hang in there bud..my dad was supposed to die a year ago...he has stage 4
@@xzonia1don't give up...my dad had lung cancer in 2001..was supposed to die last year from prostate cancer...he is rough right now but he is hanging on! It is in all of his body now..all the way up to his spine..I'm just hoping for another year. Don't give up!!
It took ages for these two legends to star in a movie together!
What breaks me and starts the tears is when he meets his granddaughter and crosses off “kiss the most beautiful girl in the world”.
I'm a 59-year-old Lady. I love, love, love watching these movies through y'all's eyes. Thank you for being so genuine and such good people. And thank you for raising children who, I'm sure, will have your same heart and values. Need a lot more like you.
If you love Morgan Freeman's voice, and what a "good teacher" he would make - you have to eventually see him in a movie based on a True Story of a high school principal, "Lean On Me." It's a classic. 😉👍
I've got a Bucket list trip planned for next June/July. Renting a Camper van, driving Route 66 from Tulsa to LA. Just before I turn 59; I can't wait. Thanks for the Smiles
Hey, I'll turn 58 next August...in Tulsa...
I want to do it on 2 wheels, though.
When you see PEGGY SUES DINER in CA don't get your hopes up that the burgers are amazing because, they aren't. But, a lot of celebs stop through there so you might get lucky. I also suggest The Mad Greek in Kelbaker CA. Amazing food. Have fun man!
You guys watched “Rain Man” he calls Carter ‘Ray’ because of his encyclopedic knowledge of everything… like “My main man Ray.”
I actually saw this in theater when I was in high school.
One of the best sentimental type movies I’ve ever seen
Secondhand Lions is also another iconic movie
Grumpy old men and grumpier old men too
Love Grumpy Old Men and Grumpier Old Men! Never seen Secondhand Lions; I'll have to check it out; thanks! :)
I wholeheartedly endorse all three of those films
@@xzonia1 secondhand lions is amazing too
Secondhand Lions is great. Love it!
It's been years since I've seen this. Going to have to see it again after watching this reaction.
Really, Rob Reiner makes some amazing movies. You should check out all of them.
Wow you get to see two legends!!
Jack and Morgan!!!
Jack Nicholson…his films is a big rabbit hole that you MUST go down. He is an amazing actor, as is Freeman. But Nicholson is such a character in each film…and he will make you laugh and cry. His films when he was young till right now….every one is awesome!
You must see As Good As it Gets and One flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.
Amber, you asked what a grave with a bell was. I remember hearing in old times they would tie a string to a dead person's finger and string it to a bell hanging at the grave. If the person wasn't truly dead and woke up, they could ring the bell and the grave watcher would dig them up. It's where the saying "Saved by the Bell" comes from.
The completing/checking off of the “Kiss the most Beautiful a girl in the world” was so emotionally impactful.
FINALLY!!! Someone reacts to this movie. I loved this movie when I saw it. Great reaction!!!
Another great Jack Nicholson movie is As Good As It Gets from 1997. It's not quite a rom-com with Nicholson playing the cranky, bigoted, and obsessive-compulsive neighbor. He won a Best Actor Oscar for his role. Helen Hunt won a Oscar for her role as the mother of a chronically ill son and Greg Kinnear won an Oscar as his gay neighbor. It was also nominated for Best Picture (Good Will Hunting was nominated that same year but The Titanic won the award) It is so good! One of my favorite movies of the 90s.
You should also check out “SECOND HAND LIONS” starring academy award legendary actors Michael Caine and Robert Duvall and Haley Joel Osment ( I see dead people). It is a movie along the lines of this movie but with 2 old guys and a kid. It also a great adventure movie.
One of my favorite movies. Jack and Morgan had such great chemistry together. Tugs at your heart doesn’t it
As good as it gets....terms of endearment...somethings gotta give. Great Jack movies! Won two academy awards for two out of the three. Great review, as always. 🙂👊❤️
You need to watch 'as good as it gets with jack in it'. such a great movie
Jack also in AFew Good Men. Famous line. YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH!!
My momma passed 4 years ago today
Tomorrow morning I am going to get up at 5 am, climb a hill and try to see the comet that is passing by - and think of her
Yup..great movie..
Jack is cool in "One flew over the Cookoo's Nest"
The film that brought Nicholson to the forefront was an early 1970s pic called "One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest".
I don't cry much, but this movie had me going.
That movie has a great deal to say about life and death. Marvelous humor sprinkled throughout. ✔️
The Red Violin 🎻 Follow this violins journey and influence through time.
There's nothing quite like a story based on honor and friendship and love, after all what would life be without them.
Holy crap! I forgot this amazing gem existed. Thank you for reminding me of this masterpeice!
A fantastic movie! Two phenomenal actors also. Always cry at the end. A funny, sad, tear jerker for sure.
I was just thinking about this movie! My partner is nine years in remission from Stage Three Breast Cancer (aged 25). We’ve been together almost eight years now and keep a Bucket List of things to do. Never take a day for granted. Glad to see you react to it!
Oh my, I’m sorry to hear that. Only 25. I hope and pray that he or she will make a full recovery and be cancer free in no time.
Two recommendations from the earlier days of these two great actors:
Jack: One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Morgan: Lean on Me
Beverly Todd, who plays Morgan Freeman's wife reunited with him after almost 20 years since co starring with him in Lean On Me which was a breakthrough role for Morgan Freeman. it's a great movie. Seeing them on screen together is special if you saw that film. Lean On Me - 1989
I LOVE watching you both............... Amber always gets me tearing up when she does. But when my boy J starts to wipe his eyes....... I'm DONE!!
I saw this in theaters when I was 13, and for the next couple weeks when we went grocery shopping my mom had me go down the coffee aisle to get her coffee for her because if she saw the Chock full o'Nuts cans she would cry thinking about the movie.
Awwwwww
One of my favorite films. Great song from John Mayer too!
"As Good As It Gets" (1997) is another must watch movie with Jack Nicholson.
💕💫 Oh boy guys I’ve been waiting for you to get to this one since day one of movie reactions…you’re both going to get so much out of it. I can’t wait to see your reaction. It’s a beautiful movie with two of the best actors ever to tell the story. ✌💚✨
Edit... such a great reaction you guys and it makes me think you will like As Good As It Gets with Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt, and Pay It Forward with Helen Hunt and Haley Joel Osment and Kevin Spacey both beautiful movies pulling heartstrings like this 💚
I wish you had heard the final song, by John Mayer. Beautiful and it has everything to do with the movie.
Yes!!! Say What You Need To Say! ❤sooooo beautiful!! 😊
Another later Nicholson film that's definitely worth a look is "About Schmidt". It's a low-key masterpiece, with a truly poignant ending. Still hits me in the feels every time.
Congrats for finding this jewel. It is a great movie that doesn't get enough love. Have fun and thanks for this one.
Rob Reiner is a great director...keep watching his movies.
The two military movies that you saw each of them in are "Glory" and "A Few Good Men."
Jack Nicholson says he passed up lunch with Michele Pfeifer. Jack Nicholson and Michele Pfeifer stared together in the movie Wolf in 1994.
Took my mother to see this at the theatre when it came out. I was laughing because I think I was the only one there that knew about that coffee. My mother died this May in a car crash that wasn't her fault. I always thought I'd have more time to take her places and do things with her. She was an amazing talent and a wonderful person.
This movie certainly knows how to chop onions.
I think you two should go back to some older films. Roman Holiday is Audrey Hepburn’s first movie. She is wonderful.
Hey guys, I hope you see this…how come we haven’t seen Purple Rain yet? Will they not allow it or something?
Thanks for the great videos, I loved the wizard of oz video, so glad Jay got to see it!!!💜
Very emotionally beautiful movie, performed by great actors. Thank you. ❤❤❤
Believe it or not, this movie was only received with so-so reviews. What a shame it wasn’t regarded better.
Jack Nicholson has done at least 2 movies with Michelle Pfeiffer - Wolf and The Witches of Eastwick. Both make for good Halloween movies, and I highly recommend you see them. :)
Love this movie, even though it makes me cry every time! Right there with you Jay; nothing about parachuting sounds fun to me. Those race cars looked fun, though! Lol. =)
That's why the joke hits lol.
The Witches of Eastwick would be a fun Jack Nicholson ( and Michelle Pfeiffer ) film for Jay and Amber to react to.
Rob Reiner Director ! All of his movies are incredible!!! 💖💖💖
Jack Nicklaus is "the Golden Bear", possibly one of the greatest golfers ever; I think you saw Nicholson in A Few Good Men, with Tom Cruise.
Michelle Pfeiffer you should watch in Grease 2, The Fabulous Baker Boys, Dangerous Minds (she plays a teacher) or the Witches of Eastwick (for Halloween!)
Oh, and she also played Catwoman 😉
This movie is one great example of why Nicholson and Freeman are considered legendary actors.
Grease 2 was a big flop and not as good as the original movie with Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta, but I admit I enjoy watching it anyway. Lol. Don't forget Ladyhawke! :)
@@xzonia1it was an ok movie but it was big for her early in her career.
Can't LOVE this enough!!!
So much epic content from these 2 giants of the industry! Both have been in movies that stand the test of time and are literally some of the top movies of all time. Shawshank Redemption and A Few Good Men alone could define careers if lesser actors. To have them in a great Rob Reiner film was a treat. Nice reaction guys!
I was lucky enough to have my parents until I was in my late fifties. When my father passed my sister and I used the remainder of his estate after probate to buy the best tickets available on the finish line at the world Track and field championships in Eugene Or. My dad was a school teacher and a three sport coach. The seats paid off I got to cross one off my own bucket list when I saw Sydney McLaughlin set a new world record in the womens 400 meter hurdles. My dad would have been thrilled . I cried. The Shining is the second best movie Nicholson filmed in Oregon. The best is One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
Not many got that Michelle Pfeiffer reference. She and Jack Nicholson starred in Wolf together years ago. Speaking about starring together, Morgan Freeman and the actress who played his wife here, were together before in Lean On Me (based on a true story)!
Bucket List and Seven Pounds are two movies I'm glad I didn't see in cinema. Would've had to douse my head in water to hide the eye leaks!
I've waited for this reaction a loooonng time!
The assistant Thomas /Mathew is one of my absolute favorite characters of this film with his dry humor! That soundtrack at the end though 🔥🔥🔥🔥
This film - Life, Regret, disappointment, Facing Fears, Hope!
Gr8 Reaction! 🙌🙌
💖 I started my bucket list on my 40th Birthday with my mom. She threw a big party for my twin sister and me. Every one else had gone to bed. We had a drink together, reminisced, laughed till we cried, and made my list. 😍This last week my husband and I checked quite a few off including spending an entire week together, just the two of us. No friends or kid. We say all the time that you never know what tomorrow holds, so do it now. We both know that if something happens to us, we lived full lives!🎉 P.S. we checked off back to back concerts (not including festivals). Saw Ever clear on a Third and Grand Funk Railroad on Friday. Made it home on Saturday to end the evening with friends on the last day of our town's annual festival. Got to enjoy a local band we all follow with my friend who missed our last festival earlier this summer due to a sudden heart attack.
Such a great reaction video and this movie truly is the best! Two outstanding lead actors that we love so much! This movie really hit home with you guys and I'm glad that you shared this moment with all of us. You two are beautiful people and I'm enjoying all of your stuff. Another great Nicholson movie is As Good as it Gets with Jack, Helen Hunt, Greg Kinnear, and Cuba Gooding, Jr. Please check it out. Phenomenal movie!
I forgot how emotional this movie was. It's so heartbreaking, yet so beautiful. I love the relationship that Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman had.
My wife was diagnosed with stage four ovarian cancer and we watched this movie the first night home from the hospital. We laughed and cried just like you guys. I lost her 16 months later.
BIG SMILE.... many tears❤️🙏
Ya'll made me cry... rough...love you guys...
First off I've beaten cancer, but lost the war, so to speak. My lifelong marriage started it's 5 year journey to it's end when this movie came out. Together since my Senior year, her Sophomore though we were only 18 months apart. We met in Spain just before my life there truly changed. I got the male lead in West Side story mainly due to my 4 octave range & the acting in 1 play before also the male lead. I'd already played my originals & sand with my acoustic guitar in every class except Biology. Some every quarter, some once a semester. I was hired in a band in existence for a decade & within a month I was learning all the new Top 40, teaching them songs I knew & my originals. Javiar the Spanish guitarist who willingly shared lead & rhythm guitar with me, was a studio bass player. So difficult songs he took it upon himself to switch to bass, since we'd had issues finding a replacement bass player after the first was shipped back Stateside. So I taught a rhythm guitarist who was great at high falsetto harmonies to play a basic bass. Javiar wasn't able to say goodbye to me after the 18 months we played & became so very close. I kept the name, always with the hope of connecting with him, but I didn't realize in Spain if you don't have their middle name, or address, you'll never find them. It weighted heavy on me that after a decade, they packed it in when I made the decision I wasn't letting the love of my life slip away. I was there about 5 day's after they arrived in Michigan where her parents grew up. But 20+ years & the old saying absence makes the heart grow fonder, they'd forgotten how much they hated winter. I hated the 6 nice days of sumner~. I'd gotten hired 5 days off the plane by Radio Shack & transferred to the top store in 2 weeks. 9 months later my 1st store is manage on Detroit's infamous 8 Mile road Eminem's neighborhood. But being an Air Force brat, & especially in Spain, we were all Americans, plus I never saw color. Long before I found out my Grandpa was half black. The black field hand's son. Between 11 & 12 he was tired of beatings with a coal shovel & left home, walked across Iowa & Nebraska doing odd jobs. Lied about his age to fight in WWI. My Mom's mom was full blooded Blackfoot Indian, but after smallpox was raised off the reservation in a deaf school. Which explains why my soul always felt at home in the Black hills near Rapid City 12 miles from Mt Rushmore. 2007 is when my wife of 30 years & dating & engaged 3+ years fell deep into alcoholism & there was 5 years of hell. She wanted & got her divorce without 1 sober conversation. But by far losing my oldest son in 2016 was horrific & I was useless except when I spent time with my youngest son, I'd never had let him know how difficult it was, he's the type that would've dropped everything for his Dad & I wouldn't allow that. I was blessed as a father & both my son's were very successful. My son died 7 hours after I hugged him & told him I loved him as I always did & will continue to do. We're guaranteed nothing in this life. I tried the online dating scene & between Catfish's or crooks I found 2 aI felt a connection with, but both as it turned out had extreme alcohol issues & I wasn't going to relive that experience. I had to find my own protocol, since no Dr gave me a chance to live. This movie hit hard, after losing my closest sister (18) months apart, only in age were we closer, I had 4 younger sisters, now 3. My baby sister lost her 1st born son within 5 minutes to a blood clot in his brain, not a second worth of warning. That was so very hard to see. And lastly my Dad gave up cuz of the flu. Hell I had the equivalent of it for a year, but I can't change the past. I've fought damn near everything humanly possible but I fight for my son, since his Mom's grown distant in miles & who she is or isn't. He doesn't deserve any of that. I still have my 84 yr old mother, & too many nieces & nephews since all from my wife's side still call me Uncle Ric. I won't say it's been easy but little worth a cr@p is. Love your channels & spirit.
I LOVE this movie. My great aunt ripped this movie for my family. I watched this multiple times before I learned that she had cancer. Something to do with bone marrow. I wont remember right now unfortunately, because I've been drinking. But she was one of the only lights in my life. I broke down the day i found out she was in hospice. I love you, Gracie Hamilton. My soul still bleeds for your loss.
Nicholson was not in Hacksaw Ridge however he was in A few good men. Also ….Great reaction . Love you guys
The eulogy scene always gets me.
An early Jack Nicholson classic "must see" film is One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest.
Those mirror glasses are amazing, I have a pair I used when I had a neck fusion a few years ago, they truly made my experience so much better
Loved this movie because both actors remind me of both my grandfathers. On my dads side my grandfather was 2nd generation immigrant that had huge family and loved learning. He was like Morgan Freeman of constantly learning all his life full of random information. He was one of the smartest people I ever knew and respected. On my moms side also 2nd generation immigrant grandfather was a adventure and cowboy at heart. He loved life and just doing things, he always found a way to make his dreams come true. Almost everything shown in this movie he did/visited from pyramids, to great wall of China, the safari. He even attempted to climb Mt Everest but had to turn around half way because some of crew's life was endangered during climb. So amazing as this movie seems its not too far how amazing real life can be as well.
"Never trust a fart".
This is such a great flick. Jack Nicholson's willingness to joke at his own expense in his later movies has made him so endearing to me.
It’s a reminder that every moment is precious because it will never come again.
I lost my grandfather to cancer and so did one of my closest friends. Ive never seen my mother cry as much as this film and my grandfathers death RIP Abuelito
If you want to see another character side of Jack Nicholson, I suggest "Goin' South". In addition to Nicholson, it has John Belushi from "Blues Brother", Christopher Lloyd from "Back To the Future", and Danny Devito from "Romancing The Stone".
Jack Nicholson was in "A Few Good Men". He's the one who did the "You can't handle the truth!" speech.

"SOMETHING'S GOT TO GIVE"...With Jack Nicholson. Hilarious and well written.
When he mentioned the coffins with the bell, they were invented for the fear of being buried alive, it had a string from inside the coffins running up to the surface where it was attached to the bell. The hope was if you woke up you could ring the bell and be saved😳🤷
Hence the saying "Saved by the bell"
