He is indeed human. I hope we get to see him on screen again soon….

Total Brando-style disappearing into the character acting.

Way underrated. It's reputation should be similar to Godfather III (i.e. 'Not a classic, but still quite good'), but somehow it's been dismissed as just plain bad all these years.

Mickey Rourke's cameo is also fantastic stuff.

Truly underrated work. It was so subtle that it's no wonder why the academy snubbed it.

It was not a 15 year working relationship gap between "The Postman Always Rings Twice" and "Blood+Wine" because Nicholson worked with Rafelson on the very odd "Man Trouble" in 1992. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_Trouble/
