Episode 7: The Witches of Eastwick (1987) & As Good as It Gets (1997)

George Miller’s The Witches of Eastwick (1987) and James L. Brooks’ As Good As It Gets (1997) give us two very different versions of Jack Nicholson as a romantic lead. One is a 1980s horror comedy classic and the other arguably the greatest role of his entire career.

In Episode 7 of EveryMan: The Masculinity in Cinema Podcast, film critics Kat Ellinger and Martyn Conterio explore Jack Nicholson’s approach to acting and what makes him so charismatic on the screen.
