Five Easy Pieces 1970

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. 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
