    CLIP DESCRIPTION:
    Melvin (Jack Nicholson) reluctantly takes Verdell the dog when his neighbor is hospitalized.
    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    James L. Brooks (Terms of Endearment, Broadcast News) directed this $50 million-plus romantic comedy, set in Manhattan. Dysfunctional, acid-tongued romance novelist Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson), who suffers from an obsessive-compulsive disorder, takes pride in his ability to offend. At a nearby cafe, the only waitress willing to stand up to his sarcastic tirades is Carol Connelly (Helen Hunt), a single mother struggling to raise her chronically asthmatic son. In Melvin's West Village apartment building, talented contemporary artist Simon Nye (Greg Kinnear) lives across the hall from Melvin. Simon is the current darling of the New York art world, reason enough to draw Melvin's verbal fire, but Simon's gay lifestyle is further grist for the novelist's malicious mill. These three New Yorkers, none of whom appears to have a chance in hell at finding true happiness, discover their fates intertwined because of the fourth complicated character in the piece, Verdell, a tiny Brussels Griffon dog (played by newcomer Jill, after a 15-week training program). Melvin seems to have no friends or family, and he lives alone, working on his 62nd book. When Simon goes into the hospital after a brutal mugging, Melvin has to take care of Verdell, and the dog actually warms Melvin's cold heart -- to the degree that he sets up unsolicited medical care for Carol's son. Eventually, Melvin is cornered into driving Simon and Carol to Baltimore, and during a hotel stopover, Melvin confesses to Carol, "You make me want to be a better man." The trip becomes an odyssey of self-realization for all three. Locations included Brooklyn's Prospect Park (Carol's neighborhood) and Greenwich Village (where Melvin's building is on 12th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues). Other exteriors were shot in downtown Los Angeles, where a dilapidated transient hotel at the corner of 4th Street and Main was transformed into the chic cafe where Carol works. Sets for the Simon/Melvin apartment interiors were erected on a soundstage at the Sony Pictures lot. Simon's paintings were created for the film by New York artist Billy Sullivan, whose work is part of the modern art collection at NYC's Metropolitan Museum of Art and the New Orleans Museum of Art.

    I love this movie. The dog was the best thing that ever happened to him. And it's based on actual stories of people having OCD and anxiety issues that improved by having a dog. Usually more effective than having a cat. So yeah. A good dog is worth more than all the gold in the world.

      And what’s super impressive is that you really can’t tell where the trainer is. So many times you know exactly what’s going on and it’s distracting. This was very well done. The one thing that IS a problem is that they used so many different dogs to play Verdell. They don’t even look alike (even in this scene there are multiple dogs used) and that is a distraction.

    Verdell was one of the best things about As Good As It Gets. I can relate to the movie because I have Asperger syndrome and I had a friend, a dog called Beau and my heart was broken when he died. I now I have another friend, a cat named Fluffy who means a lot to me. Melvin may not had liked Verdell, but he grew to love him and gave him some humanity and helped him become a better man.

    Verdell upstaged Nickleson in this scene. He was one of the best method actors that ever gnawed a bone. I heard that he studied his craft with slavislaski. He was also great to work with and he never complained to the director, especially when there were doggie treats available.

    I keep watching this movie over and over and never get tired of the great performances here, well, maybe just Helen Hunt's character, I feel she was WAY too bland and meh, and I know it's mostly because Carol was supposed to be like that but I still don't like that character, am I the only one who feels like this?

      I liked Carol. And I don't think she was bland.

    It irritates me that they used multiple dogs in this scene. It’s so distracting because they don’t even look alike.

    The script of Jack's character and life was perfect. Adding Verdell, a griffon bruxellois that are cute as hell into the script and helping jack's character was the icing on the cake. And Nicholson won an Academy Award...i wonder if he thought he would win won when he read the script?

      The script is okay that fits him more to act believable
