The writer Melvinis an old man with a weird temper with obsessive-compulsive disorder. He has no family or friends, and he keeps himself in the house all day to write novels. His life is as accurate as a clock, and he can't stand any interruptions. Melvin’s neighbor Simonis a young gay painter and has a cute puppy. He has a lively nature and a mild temper, but he is often insulted by Melvin. Melvin only goes out once a day and eats in the same restaurant. Restaurant waitress Carol Connellyis the only one willing to serve Melvin. Carol divorced and stayed with his son Spencer. Because Spencer suffers from severe asthma, this makes many men who are interested in Carol retreat. One day, Simon's house was robbed, and Simon was also seriously injured. Simon entrusted the puppy to Melvin's care before being hospitalized. As Melvin gradually fell in love with puppies, his psychology also changed. He began to pay attention to the world around him, not only taking the initiative to help others, but also carefully examining his feelings about Carol.

I finally finished watching this movie that I have encountered many times: life will encounter all kinds of hardships from time to time. Maybe at some point in the future after facing helplessly, we will also find inspiration in a sudden moment like the impoverished Simon. Pick up the motivation of life? Although Melvin asked Dr. Martin to save Spencer’s good deeds, I was heart-warming, but watching him and Carol get along, I feel that even if the two are together, there may be quite a lot of contradictions. May not be happy?

It's another best actor and actress, and I really like the role of the old man with HI played by jack nicholson.
As Good as It Gets quotes

Melvin Udall: [sitting in the bar alone after Carol storms out, talking to the bartender] The next thing I know, she's sitting right there next to me. Well, it's not right to go into details... I got nervous. I screwed up. I said the wrong thing, where if I hadn't, I could be in bed right now with a woman who if you make her laugh you got a life. Instead, I'm here with you: no offense, but a moron pushing the last legal drug.

Melvin Udall: [enters his psychiatrist's office] Hi.
[shuts door]
Melvin Udall: *Help!*
Dr. Green: If you want to see me, you will not do this. You will make an appointment.
Melvin Udall: Dr. Green, how can you diagnose someone as an obsessive compulsive disorder, and then act like I have some choice about barging in here?
