"Breakthrough" scenes always carry a lot of emotion, especially for the audience. That scene always reminds me of "The Prince of Tides", which has a very similar breakthrough experience between Nick Nolte and Barbara Streisand. It's a wonderful film, and Streisand (I'm usually not a fan of hers) was robbed of the Oscar for Best Director that year...even the winner said that she really deserved at least a nomination.

Sadly, it's something a lot of abused kids need to hear. Kids tend to soak up the abuse like sponges, internalize it and then repeat the cycle, lashing out like Will did at the beginning. It takes a lot to break through that mindset that internalizes everything, and it usually takes a lot more therapy than we see in this movie.

Robin Williams saw the immediate potential in the script and also knew these two unknowns couldn't afford him. So he took a 15 million dollar pay cut to be in the movie. But, knowing this movie was going to be a hit, he also made a deal to get really nice royalties on the condition if it made over 60 million dollars. The studios didn't have THAT much faith in it, so they agreed. Then it went on to make over 200 million dollars.

The back story to this film is as fascinating as the film itself. Both Matt Damon and Ben Affleck worked on the script when they were studying having been paired by their professor. When they submitted the script to the studios they had added a completely out of place scene in the middle to check to see who had actually read the whole thing. The character 'Skylar', played by Minnie Driver was actually the name of his then girlfriend when he was writing the script (at Harvard). They also stipulated that the film wouldn't be made unless they were in it. When asked why and how they ever thought that two newbies would be given those roles, they cited Rocky and Sylvester Stallone as an exact example of the same. It was made for just $10m and went on to make over $220m at the box office. Robin Williams' involvement was gold and went on to earn him an Oscar (Best supporting actor) as well as Oscars for both Matt Damon and Ben Affleck (best original screenplay).

It was Ben Affleck‘s character that did that with that speech about “if you’re still here in 20 years, I’ll fucking kill you.“ Yes, everyone needs a friend like that and everyone needs to BE a friend like that. So many people tried to help him. Robin’s character put some cracks in the foundation of Will’s wall, but it was his buddy who took a wrecking ball to it. This was an absolutely phenomenal movie and I don’t blame you for just being silent and taking it all in for most of it. It’s really easy to do with this movie. I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!! 💙💙💙

This is, hands down, one of my favorite films.... Robin Williams proving (yet again) that he can DESTROY you with the deepness of his dramatic acting skills... the emotions he can touch beyond just "making us laugh" (Dead Poet's Society was the first time I experienced this back when I was in high school). This movie hits home with anyone who's suffered through abuse. With anyone who's been afraid of "living up to the potential" they have because "giving it their all" could STILL land them in failure ... and if you've "given your all" and it turns out to STILL not be good enough - then you've just proven what you've feared your whole life. At least when you held back, you could always say, "I wasn't trying as hard as I could - I could've done more" ...and blamed your failure on THAT.

When you draw the parallel between the laughing in the story Damon told about his brothers and the one Williams told about his wife causing laughter it is a good call. Both of those stories were ad-libs by the respective actors and the laughter was genuine surprise and laughter from the other actor listening, if the internet is to be believed.

Simone and George - I haven't commented on your videos before, but I find you two to be fantastic. A great combination of intelligent commentary and heartfelt emotion during your reactions. But this is my favorite one of your reaction videos so far. I loved how much you both appreciated this film. Hard as it is for me to believe, it's been almost 25 years since I saw this in the theater, and it affected me deeply. I had such sympathy for and empathy with Damon's character that I loved his sense of humour and hated his determination to destroy his opportunities before the people involved could hurt him. You two appeared to connect with his character, and his challenges, in the same way. I am not a patron of yours and have no right to ask, but if you have the time I would love to see you do a reaction to "Million Dollar Baby". It's the only film that affected me more deeply on an emotional level than this one. Keep up the great work you two.

Eventually the military saved me and now I can study philosophy and astrophysics under a roof!

I had no idea he went through this since he was one of the coolest and most chill people you would ever meet. HE played high school and college soccer with such ferocity and passion as if it were life and death. -------- Because to him, it was life and death for the only thing he truly cared about. -------- WE all have demons as Will Hunting shows us, and we may never overcome them. ------- Having that outlet to express our talent and frustration can give some solace in the vast emptiness.

I mean, Will Hunting's ability to retain every detail of, like, ALL academic subjects goes way beyond believability for me but the dialogue and performances are so completely engrossing it's impossible not to let that go by the wayside and get sucked in. Now, for another Robin Williams tour de force performance....watch Dead Poets Society. Also featuring a young Ethan Hawke.

Pixieologist: I'm in educational research and teaching and learning with a focus in gifted education. And yes, there are people like Will Hunting. Smarter even. They would be categorized as exceptionally gifted, the highest level of giftedness. These people are extremely rare, so it's not a stretch that believing people like this strains all credibility because you'll likely live your entire life and never meet such a person. Maybe hear of someone, watch a documentary, a docudrama, but actually meet one? The odds are low. You're more likely to meet people lower on the scale -- mildly gifted. Moderately gifted. Maybe highly gifted. As you go higher, these types are more and more rare. This is especially true in (American) education today. This is because, there's a fanatical desire to create an egalitarian system in which all students are the same. If you do even a little research, you'll find that teachers' unions are very busy trying to wipe out advanced programs and courses as fast possible. They have a particular hatred of gifted programs, students, and the very idea of giftedness. They see it as unfair, elitist, and threatening. Because of this, if you look closely at the type of students in most current gifted programs, there are almost no actual Gifted students in those programs. They've been pushed out by the high achieving students -- those who make very high grades (think 4.0 and 5.0 gpa) and test scores, but they ain't gifted. Not even a little bit. But, their parents get them in. The difference is, the high achievers Still need to study a great deal to achieve those high marks. They are normal, just motivated, by parents, usually. Gifteds are extremely different. They are biologically, psychologically, mentally, and emotionally different. Neurologically different. Most of them eschew gifted programs because they Know it's a waste of their time. Remember Will's outburst to that professor about not wanting to spend his life explaining things to people? That's what usually happens to identified kids. The teachers aren't interested in furthering their education. They Can't and they Know they can't. So, teachers force the Gifteds to explain the work to their classmates who will Never understand the work in the minutes it takes them, at the depths they understand it. Think Divergent. Williams' character in this movie. Ender Wiggins (Enders Game). Artemis Fowl. Little Man Tate. Jonas (The Giver). Harrison Bergeron in the short story of the same name. George Platen (Profession by Asimov). Shikamaru Nara (Naruto), as well as Sasuke Uchiha, Gara, and even Neji... It's like Sensei Kakashi once told Naruto when they met such a character during his training, "In this world there are kids who are younger than you, and yet... stronger than me..." Naruto was 12. This is the reality. A lot of people are like you. They don't and don't want to know there are people walking around with this kind of ability and more (watch Little Man Tate sometime). Nowadays, the word I hear the most about it is "fair." And how it's just not "fair." Fear not. "Teachers" agree and they're trying their level best to destroy these kids and anything that will make them better at their gifts

I saw an interview with Matt Damon where he said that Good Will Hunting (and similar movies) would never have gotten made today, and he gave streaming replacing DVDs as the reason. He pointed out that about half of Good Will Hunting's overall revenue came from DVD sales, which is why the studio was willing to take a chance on such a risky project that might not be a hit in theaters. But with streaming replacing DVDs/Blu-Ray, studios started to only bet on "sure things" that would be theatrical hits - franchises, reboots, remakes etc. that play to teens and foreign markets. In case anyone's wondering why movies like Good Will Hunting never get made these days, that's his explanation.
