Our thanks to Gary for this. Jack Nicholson starred in As Good as it Gets (1997). Nicholson played the part of Melvin Udall, a misanthropic, bigoted and obsessive-compulsive best-selling romance novelist. He dislikes talking about his books, but when he’s in an office after a meeting with his agent, a nearby young woman, gushing with emotion, rushes up to him and asks, “How do you write women so well?” His reply is perfect. Enjoy (39 seconds).
