As Good as It Gets (1997)


A romantic comedy directed by James L. Brooks, starring Jack Nicholson and Cuba Gooding Jr.
An antisocial, obsessive compulsive writer in New York city has his life changed by external influences.
Jack Nicholson was PERFECT for this part. He exudes asshole and when emotion is called for, he has it on tap. The gay artist reminds me of someone I know... The characters and plot were great and the pacing and style signified the end of the "golden age of modern cinema" that I speak of so often. I don't normally like romantic comedies, but this one is actually good. Lets have a quick cheer for the film and call it awesome.
