Good Will Hunting (1997)
June 9, 2005 at 8:00pm in 26-100, and
June 11, 2005 at 8:00pm in 26-100.

A South Boston whiz kid elects to clean the halls of learning rather than enter them, slumming his way through life as a janitor at MIT. But his natural ability to unravel complex equations attracts the attention of a professor who won't let him quit, a beautiful Harvard student who wants to save him, a sympathetic buddy who wants him to escape South Boston, and a counselor who encourages him. A soundly acclaimed, homegrown effort from lifelong Boston buddies [Matt] Damon and [Ben] Affleck, who pushed their script through development by disguising it as a suspense thriller.

"A good movie allows its characters to learn and grow. It doesn't just happen; it takes a good script, good acting, and good direction. Good Will Hunting has all three."
