If As Good as It Gets hit the spot, these will too

The same two preoccupations: friendship, and lone wolf

One thread runs through both: waitress

Common ground: single parent

New York City shapes both of them

Both are built on the same subject: friendship

Contemplative where it counts, witty underneath

Playful and romantic in the same breath

Both land tenderness and warmth at once
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

Both lean on stillness more than on drama
The difference: Trades the warmth of As Good as It Gets for an angle of its own

Both keep coming back to the same thing: waitress

Witty comedy in both cases

Romance built on play, twice over
In the mood for more contemplative?
