The King of Marvin Gardens

"An Irresistibly Fascinating Film..." - Time Magazine

Oscar winner Jack Nicholson (1997 Best Actor, As Good As It Gets) stars with Oscar nominees Bruce Dern (1978 Best Supporting Actor, Coming Home) and Ellen Burstyn (1971 Best Supporting Actress, The Last Picture Show) in one of the most influential and unforgettable films of the American cinema.


Two years after his star-making role in Five Easy Pieces, Nicholson reunited with director Bob Rafelson for this gritty story of small-time losers and big-time dreamers in Atlantic City. Dern co-stars as Nicholson's older brother, a scam artist who's all style and no substance, and Burstyn excels as an aging beauty who has prostituted herself for an elusive shot at happiness.
