She is my wife’s school buddy from long ago. She is sweet but often complains about intrusive fans who fail to respect boundaries. Largely unrecognizable these days, she enjoys her anonymity. After her car accident she stayed with us for 2 weeks in Santa Cruz California where not a single person recognized her. She loved it!

I saw "as good as it gets" many many times, because it´s a good movie, but you people are so blind discrediting Titanic that you can't see what's in front of you. I mean it's all right if you don't like it, but in terms of acting, Kate Winslet was the best performance of the year, and Helen Hunt didn't do a bad job, but please! it's not THAT good as people say here in the comments. She doesn't even come close to his partner in the movie, Jack Nicholson, her performance it's clearly overrated, i don't know why, maybe because of the very good writting in the movie, but still. As for Titanic, Kate winslet is wonderful as usual, you can just see all her feelings in the expression of her face, as well as the change of her character through the film, from the melancholy classy young lady, trapped in the rules of the aristocratic society, to the passionate and rebellious girl in love, and the heroine and survivor.

That's because the Academy is made up of a bunch of liberals who tend to be Anglophiles (and Europhiles, in general). The rest of us Americans are as equally puzzled by all of the British (and European) love. Within the past decade, Hollywood has gotten ultra-liberal, which has resulted in more British (and European) castings/nominations/wins. However, the country now seems to be shifting right politically -- many Americans are sick and tired of woke culture/politics, which is championed by liberals -- so it will be interesting to see how that will affect the Oscars/Hollywood in this decade and beyond, after the Republicans take both houses of Congress and the White House (and then some). Conservatives are generally patriotic, so if they begin calling the shots, it will be all about America First. Liberals have a reputation/history of being un-American.

Helen’s right that Greg Kinnear’s performance was fantastic. Robin Williams, who won the Oscar for supporting actor in Good Will Hunting, was also terrific. Both weren’t typecasted into their respective roles. I think Robin playing a “serious” character that was quite a departure from his other portrayals certainly didn’t hurt. Greg was a relatively obscure actor at the time, and I think both the character he played and the overall tone of the screenplay being a dark romantic comedy-drama with themes of homophobia, racism, misogyny, mental illness, and class divisions presented a more complex role. The movie was about three very different characters. Jack, Helen, and Greg were sensational; only two won any kind of award for their performance.

She totally deserved this in my opinion. The competition was stiff that year but it was her year. The whole cast was amazing. And the movie, although really hard to watch at points, was amazing as well.

Totally agree. A tough year with fantastic performances but Helen was at the height of her popularity, and delivered such a likeable and nuanced performance here. When handed the right material, she absolutely excels.
