Extractions: Feb. 7, 2003 About Schmidt: Jack says it's KU but it is not The voice will be instantly recognizable even if the campus isn't. In the new movie "About Schmidt," Jack Nicholson plays Warren Schmidt, a recent retiree and widower en route to stop his daughter's wedding. He announces in a voiceover that he is taking a detour in his journey from Omaha to Denver. "Next stop: my alma mater, the University of Kansas," he says in that famous Nicholson drawl. But what the moviegoer sees next is not KU's hilltop, tree-lined Jayhawk Boulevard, gleaming Campanile, red-tile roofs or tranquil Potter Lake. No, Jack says it is KU, but Jayhawkers will quickly realize that Jack isn't in Kansas. Instead, he is at the University of Nebraska campus in Lincoln. The movie's director, Alexander Payne, is an Omaha native who bases many of his films-including "About Schmidt"-in his hometown. So even though Jack's character is a KU alumnus, Payne opted for convenience and filmed the scene at the nearby NU campus.

Extractions: Rating: He's famed for his bad boy image and his reputation as a ladies' man but at the age of 65, Hollywood megastar Jack Nicholson admits he's slowing down. The star of quirky new movie About Schmidt says he no longer has the energy to paint the town red after putting in long days on a film set and even claims to have lost his legendary libido. Nicholson has been in relationships with scores of beautiful women. Most recently linked with 32-year-old actress Lara Flynn Boyle, he was once described by Kim Basinger as "the most highly sexed individual I have ever met." But now says he spends many nights sleeping alone and recently explained: "I'm a different guy here in my 60s. I don't have the same libido. It used to be that I didn't think I could go to sleep if I wasn't involved in some kind of amorous contact or another. Well I spend a lot of time sleeping alone these days." If all this is true - and you have to wonder whether the mischievous Nicholson might be pulling a few legs - then About Schmidt provides the perfect role for the star.
