Ndugu may not know how to read or write but the picture he painted for Schmidt conveyed a thousand words.

I remember watching this with my girlfriend when I was 20, she was 18 plus a dying fan of chickfliks and would have to bear watching all this boring and full of meaning movies with me. I remember of her laughing and hughing me in the end, we dated for 3 years. We broke up and about 5 years later, I was giving a peek at her facebook(stalking) I saw that this movie was between her favourites. I felt a little like Schimdt.

You made my day.

Jack Nicholson while mostly known for his badassary is one of cinema's most under rated criers. See Five Easy Pieces as evidence.

No, Ndugu and Schmidt. The point of the scene is to illustrate that no matter how worthless and insignificant Schmidt felt, he still made a difference in someone's life.

Couldn't agree more.

And with this, "About Scmidt" becomes Payne's best work.

the picture represents the nun and ndguru??? That was the difference he made in his life right? that´s the change he made.
