best part in the movie is when Ben Affleck says to Matt Damon that every time he walks up to his front door to pick him up in the morning, he wishes he just wouldn’t even be there….just gone….moved on to bigger and better things without even saying goodbye….. that’s a true friend right there.

Compassion and no ego really is a lovely mix. Something the world needs 2000% more of these days. I`m actually writing a book on behaviour such as this outside of parental instincts and family connections / Child safety. Very rare, but sometimes can be found in real friendships, often formed under shared experiences of pain, suffering, or other aweful experiences that bond Human beings together, and astronomically rarely found in random strangers who`s paths cross randomly at a time of crisis / despair.

Why Will friend wanted Will to leave? That Will friend would then have one less great friend around to have fun with, so it would be so nice and what is so impressive in California, when just beaches and typical normal life there, so I think Will wanted earlier to stay, because he was already happy in Boston living life, so he had no intrest for California and what California got more, than Boston got? Why he thought abusive father was his reason, while abusive fathers are just abusive and are never his reason, so why he thought so?

I had a friend like this, guy was a genius! While the rest of us were busting our brains in school, studying hard and earning a C+ or B, my buddy Jimmie was missing at least three times a week from school, I would go by his house to check up on him and find out he was working to support his mom and little brothers and sisters, I was concerned about his Grade’s but he would always say I can handle it I’ll be ok , so when we finally graduated from High school, not only did he graduate, but had a GPA of 4.0!! He later joined the marine corps and served in the military, Sadly my dear friend died at the young age of 47yrs and I miss that dude every day! The last time I seen him we were drinking and reminiscing about school in his garage that he converted into his Man cave , it was there that I told his children of how intelligent their father was, he never bragged on himself or anything. To make a long story short, this movie reminded me of my friend!

Matt Damon is perfectly cast in his own writing. Based on that, I assume he had a major role in the story which was a collaboration with Ben Affleck. This movie honors the role of mentors, a teacher and a therapist, in discovering and helping one's true talents. I cannot imagine a more real life scenario between a young adult and a counsellor. And it climaxes with that breakthrough moment when Robin Williams leads him to let himself off the hook for his past abuse. The release of pathos is classic. The genius of Will and the pun on the title Good Will Hunting is genius writing.

But you have to find a way to make the suffering insignificant to the joy and pleasure in your life. I asked a Democrat how they would solve homelessness. They said build a shelter. In reality, all they do is put spikes under bridges so no one can sleep there. And sure, there would be a lot more orphans. But how many of those would later become successful and donate to charities? Maybe one of them finds a cure to cancer. Maybe even most of them actually want to live. But we wouldn't know. All Democrats are wondering is how to get away with murder. Some abortions are fine. Like if the mother has a high chance of dying at birth. But 90% of all abortions are simply from people who are too stupid to use birth control. You messed up. And as a result you want someone else to die for your mistake.

15:00 that's how my severe depression started, by therapist telling me that it wasn't my fault that I was abused, and that whatever had happened to me should not have happened in the first place. I don't know if this is another trick that works for the "normal" people but not me, but my whole world collapsed after realizing the truth in it. I've always believed that if my family could just live with my abnormalities (later suspected to be autism never diagnosed), I would have been a lot happier and I would have gone a lot farther in life. Being told of what I "deserve" and what I actually have is not something I can handle. Frankly, it would have been MUCH EASIER for me to believe that it was my fault, and that I deserved it in one way or another. Now that I'm able to see things in a different light and that I recalled abuse, sexual assault, manipulation, etc. (which I earlier dismissed as "discipline" for being abnormal), and that my family not only rejected my therapist's theory but also repeatedly called me for being spoiled, ungrateful and childish, it has built up strong resentment that has led to destructive behavior and failed suicide attempts. I'm not a math genius but I do see a lot of myself in Will. I was forced to attend therapy sessions and each time I enjoy breaking therapists with my cynical comments and nitpicking their publications. I'm very insecure when it comes to things I want to pursue. At this point, I don't think any therapist could make me better and I simply live one day at a time.

I once interviewed a young woman before a live audience of about a thousand. The interview was about her leaving behind a tough youth but I didn't realise from her private discussion how bad it had been. Then on stage before the live audience she froze up. To help help her from embarrassment I started gently asking short easy questions which settled her but out came the true horror of her past. Clearly the audience could see her genuineness and that I was as surprised as they were. When appropriate I wound up the interview which was more powerful than I ever could have created. An hour later I walked toward her to express my profound gratitude for her trust in me. She turned to me aglow with the revelation that she had just been approached by another older audience member who revealed to her that her expression had "opened a locked door for him" Wow I felt just how Sean must have felt with Will only my only qualification was compassion.

Let me hit you with reality. This movie is pure fantasy. It never happened, never happens and will never happen. A scumbag/janitor like him remains a scumbag and would never be that smart to begin with. People never change. In reality he'd have many opportunities to show off his talent in elementary school and high school. There is no way someone as smart as him ends up being a janitor. So, was he r3tarded and turned into a genius all of a sudden?! No silly, this movie is a reality breaker. It's quite literally impossible. It never, ever happens, I assure you.

One of the best movies ever in my opinion. Matt gives his heart and soul to the role, and Robin Williams just leaves me floored every time I see this film. 'its not your fault." scene gets the onion ninja's going everytime.

This is a very human story...and in the movie there are several scenes that cut deep into the soul...very emotional and recognizable. The courage that Will had found to confront himself, the strenght and life experiences of Sean the therapist and wisdom he used to help Will, in fact all the characters around him, the professor, his friends and Skylar where all involved in Will, take the next step in life. This movie is a must see for everyone, a universal human story, with a great cast.

The part about the painting is true. He painted it himself, about himself , and his emotional world as he was at the time. His wife had passed away. The part of it about ending you was also factual. In the end everything worked out. The tberapist set up shop with a new approach mindset , on a tropical island, and the patient felt better, he helped another man , vacate from the storm.

I'm a foster mum to 4 kids since they came to me in 2007. That first scene between Will and Sean is such typical behaviour from a kid with reactive attachment disorder. I'm conflicted about this movie because I agree that it's brilliant and beautiful and hopeful. However, I know kids similar to Will in the foster system and their brilliance, whether it be academic or otherwise, is lost amongst their trauma-based disregulation and it makes them very, very hard to live with. It peeves me when I read other commenters say "everyone needs someone to believe in them, then they'll be ok". I used to believe that when I was a new foster parent. I was so idealistic. Now I've been burnt to a crisp enough times to know that trauma, and it's terrible ongoing effects, create mental health conditions that won't be fixed by having "just one person who believes in them" (the kid). Love is NOT enough. I love and adore my kids as much as if I'd have given birth to them. I'm devoted to them forever, no matter what. But love is NOT enough. Lots and lots of therapy over many years, love, family stability, possibly medication and endless patience is what really helps heal kids who have had Will's experiences. This movie makes it all seem so easy.

I also have met a few who are souls who have lost their way. They can't see the hope for happiness right in front of them. For them, the journey is long IF They can accept the guidance out of the dark and back to the light.

Actually, your comment is more than a joke. This movie is a fairytale, a variation to a Superman movie. The main character has superpowers, he is hiding them and living undercover, he has his weakness, he has bad enemies, and at the end he is going towards the bright future. Besides the fact that the whole story would not work too well if the main character was a woman.
@terrywebster977210 місяців тому
The most memorable scene in the movie was when Sean told Will that it wasn't his fault. Will said "I know". But it was just a head answer. Sean was experienced enough to see the answer for what it was, and kept repeating his assertion that the pain Will felt wasn't his fault. It took seven or eight iterations for his heart to gradually open up until he was finally able to let that pain out. That new-found freedom was what caused Will to give Sean such a heartfelt hug, and brought tears to my eyes.

This is the movie that really helped me understand who are Americans and in what they do believe, what are their myths and legends.

@GoodmanMIke592 роки тому
Maybe the part of the American culture that's difficult for you to understand is the world of the "infinitely possible." Remember, you come from a place that is infinitely crowded, one increasingly being diluted by Arab refugees, one about to be overrun by Mongol hordes and one run by the inbred descendants of Kings and Queens who were each other's first cousins. The US has its own problems but Gird your loins. You are about to know exactly what it's like to be squeezed by a Communist system which wants to hold a warm winter home over your heads. By contrast I live in a country and culture that is rapidly declining but one still free enough to allow someone to chart his own course, whose history is still counted in the number of lives changed at Ellis Island. It's still measured by the the history of a people who who rode out on horses, died along wagon trails, stepped off of trains into the middle of the Midwest. These pioneers accepted these risks, took on the challenges, if for no other reason than for the right to reinvent themselves. Today it is measured by the number of people willing to cross a Mexican desert to get precisely to that job in construction that Will Hunting had. Or they might want to open a tobacco shop and purchase rental property. Ask yourself why the United States and Canada are so different. These are two young countries with equally open spaces but political systems which have yielded different results. It will have to be left to someone else to judge which system is for him. This movie is from 1997(?). Things are only slightly less "infinitely possible" but millions are still breaking our laws to get in. How that improves or dilutes this potential is up for debate and won't be solved in my lifetime. As for Europe? It depends where but I don't see the squeezed spaces of that continent offering the same opportunities. Could be wrong. Your thoughts?
