Another cool, subtle thing to symbolize how their relationship was evolving: the chair that Will chooses to sit in as the movie progresses. At first, he's sitting opposite of Sean, so he's staying as far away as he can. By the end, he's chosen to sit directly next to Sean because they're literally and figuratively getting closer.

When one movie has 3-4 VERY memorable 1 on 1 conversations that are so powerful. The bench became a makeshift memorial for a while when people found out about the passing of Williams. Both Matt and Ben have natural Boston accents since they are from there, so it makes it so authentic. The camera shake was authentic because the line was improvised by RW and the camera man was actually laughing behind it. Matt and Ben wrote it, but I guess you missed it when the movie started haha. You even missed the judge say when he was defending himself that he was an orphan? (your reply to him having 12 brothers at the race track).
@ProsperoFinch20 сағат бұрын
Him having 12 brothers doesn’t discount him being an orphan. An orphan is someone without parents, not someone without a family. He was abandoned (and presumably his brothers were too), and he ended up in foster care where he was abused

I actually saw this movie for the first time just a couple years ago. While not having seen the movie I still knew about the intense topic matter of dealing with trauma and depression so I held off watching it. I finally did though while I was at a really low point dealing with the trauma of the pandemic but while also dealing with my own depression and trauma from my upbringing. I grew up with an abusive father and it got so bad I had to cut him out of my life and help my mom do the same. Our lives are so much better now and its been so long but I've still been working through it. When it got to the "its not your fault" scene, I full on broke down crying. It was so bad I had to pause the movie and just let myself go throw it. The way Robin was saying it felt like he was literally speaking to me. It was so genuine and heartfelt and I appreciate his performance so much with this movie. Not only that but the writing is so genuine also and the fact it was written by new and young actors who had never directed before it just so beautiful and a true work of art. This movie instantly became one of my favorites and I watch whenever I need a good emotional release

The masterful dialog in this movie is the combination of Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's script, plus Robin Williams improvisations. Robin improvised in little places, for instance the story about his wife waking up the dog, and came up with the last line "SOB, he stole my line", which feels like the whole movie was coming to that line, that's the phrase that ties up everything in a bow, they asked him to improvise a few lines until he came with that one and everyone realized it is perfect for the last line of the film.

This movie put Matt & Ben on the map...it was produced with the help of their buddy, Kevin Smith (Clerks, Chasing Amy) as an executive producer). They worked for years on the screenplay, based on a story Matt wrote. Matt & Ben walked away with prominent careers and the Oscar for Best Screenplay when it was all said and done. It also earned Robin Williams the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. Technically, Matt and Ben are not putting on accents so much as letting their natural way of talking be a little broader-they are from Boston. When Robin Williams died, the bench where they filmed Sean Maguire's monologue to Will became a shrine for mourners who left flowers and notes to Williams. It is now considered a definite tourist destination point in Boston.

There was a lot of stars aligning to get Williams on board, too. Probably would have never even read the script, but Matt Damon got cast in Rainmaker, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, and Williams starred in a Coppola film around that time. Coppola vouched for Damon, Williams read the script and practically begged to be in it. He took a 15 million dollar pay cut just so the production could afford him, said that the movie was going to get made no matter what and he wanted to be in it. Another fun fact - Damon and Affleck inserted a gag scene in the script where Will and Sean start randomly having sex, just to see how far production companies were actually reading. Miramax, who they ended up selling the script to, was the only company that commented on the scene and told them to take it out.

@@outspkn123 Apologies for the oversight, but indeed, as previously mentioned, Ben Affleck first graced the screen in 1984 in the educational series *The Voyage of the Mimi*, and gradually made a name for himself in several television productions. By 1992, he appeared in *Buffy the Vampire Slayer*, a small role yet one that hinted at his emerging presence in the entertainment industry. Affleck’s turning point arrived in 1993 with *Dazed and Confused*, where he played a high school bully-a role that left an indelible mark on audiences. This paved the way for appearances in independent films like *Mallrats* (1995) and *Chasing Amy* (1997), works that earned him a growing respect in the industry. Meanwhile, Matt Damon embarked on his cinematic journey with a small role in *Mystic Pizza* (1988), a modest beginning that would, nonetheless, ignite his passion for acting. Damon subsequently took on supporting roles in films such as *School Ties* (1992) and *Geronimo: An American Legend* (1993). In 1996, Damon delivered a notably dedicated performance as a war veteran in *Courage Under Fire*, for which he shed an astonishing amount of weight-a testament to his commitment and ambition within his craft. Together, these formative years crafted the foundation for both Affleck and Damon, setting them on the path toward a shared destiny of creative and cinematic triumph.

What I love about this film is that Will is simultaneously the protagonist and antagonist of the story. Literally everyone is working towards helping Will except Will. Sean is obvious. Skylar loves him and just wants to be with him. Gerald, while very misguided, just wants him to be as amazing as he knows he can be. He only pushes him the way he does because its the only way he knows If this film wasn't as well written as it was, the problem would be that he cant figure out a math problem because Gerald is holding him back through fear of being outshone, it negatively affect his relationship with Skylar, he has his moment of clarity and solves it, gets the job, puts the stuffy professor in his place, wins the girl and we celebrate... I love that the destination is his ability to risk his heart with the girl in spite of his trauma. We dont even know if she takes him back. The win is that he is ready to be vulnerable and try.

I'm not sure it's fair to say that Lambeau was misguided so much as he represents another path. His point is that Will has the ability, possessed by very few, to change the world and have a real chance at greatness that he doesn't want to see Will squander, but actually doing it requires focus and dedication. Notice how Lambeau seems to have no family and no apparent life outside the office and missed Robin Williams' wife's funeral; that's the cost of dedication to greatness. Imagine a world in which Beethoven or Mozart or Shakespeare took more days off, or the people who invented the computer or penicillin or cured polio decided to party more and work less; wouldn't the world be worse? I think what Lambeau believes is that if someone has Will's generational talent, he owes it to the world to do something with it.

I think one thing that gets overlooked is Will isn't the only character with emotional shortcomings; Robin Williams hasn't moved on from his wife's death yet, but Lambeau is written as an insecure obsessive with nothing in life except his work.

Kevin said to the man interviewing him "At one point I said cut in a scene and yelled out to them 'If you want to say your own lines, GO WRITE YOUR OWN FILM!!!' and of sure enough they wrote Good Will Hunting and won an Oscar for the screenplay".

This is my favourite movie ever made! Just love the scene of them say on the bench

This movie is a time capsuled character of what Boston is/was like, even if it's a bit exaggerated. Also, up close you look like a ladybug.

This was written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck when they were both just 21 and won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay and Robin Williams won for Best Supporting Actor

Return to Me is a great 90s Minnie Driver movie! Super fun and wholesome!

This movie was one of those solid 90's classics, love it! They don't make movies like this anymore.

I’ve never felt older than when you said you weren’t alive when this movie came out. I remember seeing it in the theaters.

I was horribly abused by my father growing up. The scene with Sean telling Will it wasn't his fault feels like he's speaking directly to me and gets me every time. Though, my favorite scene is the bench scene. Honorable mention to the scene where Chuckie tells Will he owes it to him to do something better.

This is one of my favourite movies because it showed Robin Williams in a different light AND he won an Academy Award. HOW YOU LIKE DEM APPLES!

8:31, that symbol on the blackboard is a Japanese family crest called Hojo, which is the same symbol in the video game called Link (The Legend of Zelda)

The scene in the park with Robin WSilliams is a classic.

If you haven’t yet, you should definitely react to Clerks. It’s steep in 90’s Grunge. It was Kevin Smith’s first movie and its success allowed Smith to help his buddies, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon to make this film.

Before this film: Damon & Affleck, childhood friends who were semi-known actors. Then they made this incredible piece of work as writers. Gave there best as both writers and actors. Casting newcomer Minnie Driver and the late Robin Williams was perfection. After this film: Critical acclaim and award wins, Including 3 Oscars. Best Original Screenplay for Damon & Affleck, Best Supporting Actor for Robin Williams. I was rooting for them all to win during the Academy Awards show. Over 20 plus years later, the filmmakers, the cast and moviegoers remember a story about being gifted and not just for the purpose of being smart. But being strong enough to give and receive the love that we all deserve.

The "fuck you.", "you're the shepard." line is so subtle that it took me so many rewatches of this movie to realize the joke. Being that he's turning that "fuck you" line into "fuck ewe". 😂

I saw this in the theater when it came out, and was in complete awe. And I had seen Damon before (check out the movie School Ties with Brendan Frasier...Affleck had a minor role in it too) but he had been such a little prick in that movie that I was hesitant about seeing Good Will Hunting. Such a great movie, such great performances, and to know that they wrote it, just amazing work.

"Stellan Skarsgard. Why did I call him Bill?" Well, he does have a son named Bill, who is most famous for having played Pennywise in the two IT movies.

Minnie Driver was in Ella Enchanted? I don't generally do Disney movies... but I might want to check that out.

Stellan Skarsgård played "Bootstrap" Bill Turner in the Pirates of the Carribean movies, perhaps that's why you came up with Bill for his name.

It was great to see Robin Williams win a supporting oscar for this role. He had some great dramatic roles like good morning vietnam and one hour photo.

You said Robin Williams should have won an award for his performance. Robin Williams did indeed win the Oscar for Best Actor in a Supporting Role. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon for Best Writing, Screenplay. Matt Damon and Minnie Driver were also nominated for Best Actor and Best Actress. Great reaction by the way.
