Patron Exclusive Review #74

Uneasy Rider

Jack Nicholson spent his acting career railing against the system, so it’s weird to see the movie icon receive the last of his 12 Oscar nominations playing a reserved insurance agent silently suffering the indignities of old age.  Will retirement free the suit to leave behind a disappointing marriage, and find his voice out on the open road? And what happens when his RV reaches its final destination, and Jack has the chance to stop his daughter from marrying a foolish waterbed salesman?  You’ll learn all About Schmidt when you become a Now Playing Patron this January.
