Warren Schmidt in
Alexander Payne's
About Schmidt.
Schmidt has settled into a dormant life. He has an unfulfilling marriage to
Helen (
June Squibb), and conspires to spend as much time away from her as possible.
Schmidt's daughter
Jeannie (
Hope Davis) is engaged to
Randall Hertzel (
Dermot Mulroney), a man
Schmidt believes is entirely unworthy of his daughter. When
Helen unexpectedly dies,
Warren is adrift until he discovers old love letters sent to his wife from his best friend. This inspires
Warren to make a valiant effort to stop his daughter's wedding. His plans start to go awry when he meets
Randall's extroverted mother,
Roberta (
Kathy Bates).
About Schmidt was screened at the
2002 Cannes Film Festival where many were surprised that
Nicholson did not take home the Best Actor award.
