Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson) suffers from an obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, which is severely tested when his gay neighbor Simon (Greg Kinnear) leaves his dog in Melvin's care. Melvin is a writer, but he treats humanity with contempt–except for single-mom waitress Carol (Helen Hunt) whose son suffers from asthma attacks. First, Melvin takes care of the dog and then helps with Carol's son. Will Carol be next? Both Nicholson and Hunt received Oscars. Five other nominations were received, including Best Picture and Supporting Actor (Greg Kinnear).
