User Comments & Reviews
About Schmidt, by Diana Beder
October 20, 2003
This is a movie that touched me personally. Nicholson 's emotions are played out well. The cast is a mix of various characters that add humor to this slow, but very well portrayed movie. The ending helps sum up a lot of questions one might have during the movie. I reccommend it for the subject matter as well as Nicholson's fine acting. Kathy Bates plays also an unforgettable character.
