The 3-time Oscar winner secured his iconic status with Roman Polanski’s Chinatown, in which he played gritty private eye Jake Gittes. Nicholson should have left the character there. However 16 years later, he directed and starred in the sequel that no one asked for. The actor in middle age seems detached from the role he brought so vividly to life earlier in his career. As a director, lets just say, Nicholson is no Polanski.
