Jim made sure to leave the seat before producer Lou Adler – an old friend of the New Jersey native – arrived with his second wife Patricia “Page” Hannah.
Jack – who became a Lakers season ticket holder way back in 1970 – also had an animated conversation with an employee wearing headphones who knelt in front of him.
At one point, Nicholson — whose longest relationship was with Oscar winner Anjelica Huston from 1973-1990 — was spotted wearing his trademark orange-tinted sunglasses.
On April 28, the former lothario attended the Lakers vs. Memphis Grizzlies with Ray and his 24-year-old grandson Duke Nicholson.
Curb Your Enthusiasm producer star Larry David was one of the first to welcome Jack to the Crypto.com Arena.
Unfortunately, Nicholson hasn’t been on the silver screen since he played CEO Charles Madison in James L. Brooks’ gloomily judged 2010 rom-com How Do You Know, which only made $48.7 million of its $120 million budget.
But the avid art collector has starred in some of the greatest movies of all time, including Five Easy Pieces, Chinatown, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, The Shining, Terms of Endearment, Batman, A Few Good Men, As Good as It Gets, and About Schmidt.
Jack – a veteran of the California Air National Guard – is certainly distinguished for his acting career – he has won three Academy Awards, six Golden Globe Awards and even a Grammy Award.
