Rebel

Legendary actor Nick Nolte delivers his most revealing performance yet. This intimate memoir is a tale of art, passion, commitment, addiction, and the quest for personal enlightenment as intense and hypnotic as the man himself

In a career spanning decades, Nick Nolte has become a true Hollywood icon. Rising from a difficult childhood to a trio of Oscar nominations, he has been both celebrated and vilified; survived marriages and divorces; was named the “Sexiest Man Alive”; and suffered public humiliation over his addiction issues, including a drug-fueled trip down the Pacific Coast Highway that resulted in his infamous arrest.

Despite these ups and downs, Nolte has remained true to the craft he loves. A rebel who defies expectations, Nolte is motivated by personal, edgy projects, not box office success. Today, he has found peace on his own terms, yet is still driven, juggling projects while raising his daughter.
