Jack Nicholson allegedly once said that Hitler should be “admired” for his “determination”.
Susanna Moore, who says she had an affair with the actor in the 1970s, makes the claim in her new memoir Miss Aluminium.
Moore, 74, met Nicholson, now 83, through her production designer boyfriend at the time, Rchard “Dick” Sybert, and soon began working as the One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest star’s script reader after “inevitably” hitting it off.
In an extract published in The Sunday Times Magazine, Moore said: ”The only time I ever disagreed with him was when he said that I had to admire Hitler for his determination, as Hitler had held to his beliefs,” adding: ”I was furious.”
Moore continued: “I was afraid to argue with him, fearful that it would cause me to think less of him. As gentle and as malleable as he then was with women, he had a certain fondness for tyrants.”
