Episode 190: The Crew’s sidestepping the cracks in the sidewalk as they discuss, As Good As It Gets. It’s a fun, feel good romantic comedy with a main character who is a complete jerk. But he’s really a teddy bear. Yes, that sounds like loads of romantic comedies, but the writing and acting elevate this to something really special. The character’s motivations make sense and the three leads all have full character arcs. The film was a box-office hit (grossing $148 million) during Titanic’s historic box-office run. It was nominated for 7 Academy Awards, winning 2 for Best Actor and Best Actress.
