FROM SAM PECKINPAH'S CLASSIC WESTERN, PAT GARRETT & BILLY THE KID
THE ENTIRE SCENE, SHOWN HERE, IS A MINI MOVIE - JUST AS A SOLID SCENE SHOULD BE. IT HAS A BEGINNING, AN ACTION PACKED MIDDLE AND A HUGELY POWERFUL ENDING.
THIS IS EVERYTHING FILM MAKING IS ABOUT.

A particularly chilling scene from Your Friends and Neighbors. There's nothing graphic visually but just wait until he starts talking:

By the way, although it isn't well known like Chinatown, Five Easy Pieces is another Jack Nicholson movie where the director changed the screenwriter's ending. The original ending was:
Nicholson dies in a car accident and Karen Black who wasn't in the car curses at him.
