You seriously think Nicholson can be cooler than Clint Eastwood in a movie?
Please think about it some more

I never said he can be cooler, I said beeing cool in a movie is easy compared to complex stuff like playing someone on the brink of madness like in Cuckoo´s Nest or Shining...thats why Jack is the superior actor.

Thats true, but considering Clint Eastwood has gone on to become one of the most celebrated directors of Hollywood, while Nicholson has gone on to... well ,anger management and departed, the comparison of them as talented personalities tips towards Mr. Eastwood

 

 

I don´t care what they did when (BTW old Jack acted fantastic in "As good as it gets") I adore both of them a lot but I think you have to mesure them by what they did in their prime, and Jacks acting skills in his prime are unmatched... Clint may be a great director but he´s not the best, Jack still sets the high mark for playing borderline insane charakters... so in my book he winns the talen competition... if you want to take into account the good and the bad (and the ugly) you need to consider coutless mediocre westerns Clint did as well...
