Happy Birthday to Jack Nicholson who turns 81 years old today. Born in New Jersey, the actor has excelled in genres from satirical comedy to romance to dark portrayals of antiheroes and psychopaths. Working in Hollywood for more than 60 years, he has played the "eternal outsider, the sardonic drifter," the rebels against social structure – and his 12 Academy Award nominations make him the most nominated male actor in the Academy's history. Only he and Michael Kaine have been Oscar-nominated in every decade since the 60s.
