Melvin Udall (Jack Nicholson) este un tip afurisit, un romancier curios ce pare ca sufera de o boala psihica.
Niciodata nu evita confruntarile, ba se si lauda cu abilitatea de a fi cat mai antipatic si de a rani cat mai tare. E nemilos. Are fixurile si maniile lui: acelasi mic dejun in acelasi restaurant, servit de aceeasi chelnerita, singura care ii suporta hachitele.
Carol Connelly (Helen Hunt) este singura si lupta sa-si creasca fiul bolnav de astm si deficient imunitar.
Simon Nye (Greg Kinnear) este un pictor talentat, homosexual, ceea ce e de ajuns pentru a starni injuriile lui Melvin.
Se pare ca cei trei nu au nici o sansa sa-si gaseasca fericirea...
Destinele lor sunt unite de un al patrulea personaj: un catelus urat pe nume Verdell. Si totusi, Melvin, Carol si Simion isi gasesc echilibrul in viata, invatand sa priveasca partea buna a lucrurilor.
