As Good As It Gets is a 1997 film which tells the story of an obsessive-compulsive, cantankerous, homophobic writer named Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholsen) who, because of his affective disorder, lives in a world that has shrunk to about the size of his apartment and the books he authors; nevertheless, and despite himself, he befriends his regular waitress (Helen Hunt) who is a single mother and his homosexual neighbor (Greg Kinnear). It is a romantic comedy played out among flawed people in an imperfect and postmodern world.
