Jack Rollins (born Jacob Rabinowitz; March 23, 1915 – June 18, 2015) was an American film and television producer and talent manager of comedians and television personalities. His first major success came in the 1950s when he helped create and promote the comedy duo Nichols and May. He went on to help shepherd the careers of several prominent comedians with his partner Charles H. Joffe, including Woody Allen, Billy Crystal, David Letterman, and Robin Williams.
Rollins' work as a film and television producer was closely tied to the artists that he managed. He was credited as an executive producer on many of the films directed by Woody Allen from 1969 to 2015. From 1970 to 1972 he was an executive producer on The Dick Cavett Show and from 1982 to 1992 he was an executive producer of Late Night With David Letterman. Between the two shows he was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award ten times.
Life and career
Born Jacob Rabinowitz in Brooklyn, Rollins was the son of Yiddish-speaking immigrants from Russia. In 1933 he graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School, and in 1937 earned a bachelor's degree from the City College of New York. He spent two years working for an orphanage in Chicago before being drafted into the United States Army during World War II.

Plot: For Steve Rogers, awakening after decades of suspended animation involves more than catching up on pop culture; it also means that this old school idealist must face a world of subtler threats and difficult moral complexities. That comes clear when Director Nick Fury is killed by the mysterious assassin, the Winter Soldier, but not before warning Rogers that SHIELD has been subverted by its enemies. When Rogers acts on Fury's warning to trust no one there, he is branded as a traitor by the organization. Now a fugitive, Captain America must get to the bottom of this deadly mystery with the help of the Black Widow and his new friend, The Falcon. However, the battle will be costly for the Sentinel of Liberty, with Rogers finding enemies where he least expects them while learning that the Winter Soldier looks disturbingly familiar.

Quotes:
[about to fight a squadron of black ops]::Steve Rogers: Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?Alexander Pierce: See, I took a seat on the Council not because I wanted to, but because Nick asked me to, because we were both realists. We knew, that despite all diplomacy and the handshaking and the rhetoric, to build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down. And that makes enemies.
Nick Fury: You know, I read those SSR files. "Greatest Generation"? You guys did some nasty stuff.::Steve Rogers: Yeah, we compromised. Sometimes in ways that made us not sleep so well. But we did it so that people could be free. This isn't freedom. This is fear.::Nick Fury: S.H.I.E.L.D. takes the world as it is, not as we'd like to be. And it's getting damn near past time for you get with that program, Cap.::Steve Rogers: Don't hold your breath.
Natasha Romanoff: Did you do anything fun Saturday night?::Steve Rogers: Well, all the guys from my barbershop quartet are dead, so, no, not really.::Natasha Romanoff: You know, if you ask Kristen out, from Statistics, she'd probably say yes.::Steve Rogers: That's why I don't ask.::Natasha Romanoff: Too shy, or too scared?::Steve Rogers: Too busy!
Alexander Pierce: [to the Winter Soldier] Your work has been a gift to mankind. You shaped the century. And I need you to do it one more time...
Sam Wilson: Look, whoever he used to be and the guy he is now, I don't think he's the kind you save. He's the kind you stop.::Steve Rogers: I don't know if I can do that.::Sam Wilson: Well, he might not give you a choice. He doesn't know you.::Steve Rogers: He will. Gear up. It's time.::Sam Wilson: You gonna wear that?::Steve Rogers: No. If you're gonna fight a war, you got to wear a uniform.
[from trailer]::Alexander Pierce: Are you ready for the world to see you as you really are? Look out the window, you know how the game works: disorder, war, all it takes is one step.::Steve Rogers: I thought the punishment usually came AFTER the crime.
Alexander Pierce: I can bring order to the lives of seven billion people, by sacrificing twenty million. It's the next step, Nick. If you have the courage to take it.::Nick Fury: No. I have the courage not to.::Alexander Pierce: You don't think we've wiped your clearance from the system?::Nick Fury: I know you erased my password. Probably deleted my retinal scan. But if you want to stay ahead of me, Mr. Secretary...::[removes his eye patch]::Nick Fury: ...you need to keep both eyes open.
Nick Fury: [from trailer] S.H.I.E.L.D. takes the world as it is, not as we'd like to be!
Natasha Romanoff: I know who killed Fury. Most of the intelligence community doesn't believe he exists. The ones that do call him the Winter Soldier. He's credited over two dozen assassinations in the last 50 years.::Steve Rogers: So he's a ghost story.

Jack Palance
Drinking in the nightclub with my bosom friend
Who come down to spend the weekend
When I look back who'd you think I see
But one of my family
Good heavens I shout
Mama Jacob, what the France you doin in a night club
Same time the rock and roll start to play
