Kinnear, rounding out the trio, graciously avoids stereotypes and earns his own fair share of the audience's attention and sympathy. Other films would use Simon as a wheel in the plot, but As Good As It Gets is sensible enough to create complete portraits of all its major characters. Cuba Gooding Jr. is amusing in a smaller role as Simon's art dealer, and Shirley Knight gives an understated performance as Carol's mother, who wants nothing more than to see her happy. She offers the sage piece of advice that "a normal boyfriend" simply doesn't exist...

...only to discard it minutes later after detecting its stench, then drive off, leaving viewers with this message about the car: "It fits your life or the complete lack thereof." The spot breathed new life into its sound-track song, a 1982 release by the now defunct German band Trio. It also created bumper-to-bumper parodies that replicated the ad down to the most minute detail, with everyone from Jay Leno to Bill Gates taking a joyride in a Golf...

Once her plans are in motion, the trio relocates to Venice, an old, seductive city well-suited to falling in love but also rather treacherous in its dark, decaying moodiness. By Kate's logic, Millie will get some good lovin' before she dies, at which point she and Merton (I swear that's his name) can set up house. Who loses? So the three of them become a sort of family for one another, until sexual tensions and power plays wreak all kinds of havoc...

Once his plans are in motion, the trio moves to downtown New Orleans, an old, seductive city well-stocked with lusty prey but also rather treacherous. By Lestat's logic, Louis and Claudia will have all the joy of being immortal, and he will have some company who respects him. Who loses?

...three members of the band "Charlie" joins. The band, The Apocalypse, composed of War (Michael Davidson '00), Famine (Eric Fleisig-Greene '01) and Death (James Chakan '99), is obviously modeled on the angst-ridden, death-obsessed hard-rock bands of the '80s. They were a fine Three-Stooges trio of sorts, mocking everything Orson said with an entertaining mix of slyly witty allusions and slapstick humor. Their kazoo version of a Corelli fugue was one of the show's highlights, provoking a spontaneous ovation from the opening-night audience. Davidson's War and Fleisig-Greene's Famine were especially outrageous...
