Author Biography
Director and writer James L. Brooks won Oscars for directing, writing and producing Terms of Endearment. He followed up that success with the multiple Oscar-nominee Broadcast News. His last film. As Good As it Gets, netted Brooks Oscar nominations as producer and co-screenwriter.
Reviews"[As Good As It Gets is] winning! Tart and warmly entertaining. Echoes the quirky appeal of Broadcast News, and that's high praise. Plenty of sharp writing."
