Ах, този ДЖАК!
Джак Никълсън е вкъщи си! Колкото и рядко да се е случвало това събитие в живота на популярния артист, фотограф на LIFE magazine се снабдява с неговото благоволение. Малко откакто с лекост е очаровал публиката като волния юрист в именития филм на Денис Хопър „ Волният ездач ”, през септември 1969 година 32-годишния Джак отваря вратите на своя нов дом на Mulholland Drive в Ел Ей. Негов комшия е идолът му Марлон Брандо, а феноменалната панорама към Franklin Canyon е запечатана на фотоси, които в никакъв случай не са оповестени в списание LIFE.
