Was that the name of it? Nicholson sure as hell had the walk and talk from that era. He had to have hung-out with sailors to nail it so perfectly. Waaaay too believable.

It was "Last Detail" 1973

ex of dialogue (Nicholson = Buddusky):

Buddusky: Welcome to the wonderful world of pussy, kid.
Meadows: After... after... well maybe it was an act for her. I mean I know she was a whore. But I think she liked me.
Buddusky: They got feelings just like everybody else, kid; she probably did.
Meadows: Well, it was real for me. That's what counts.
