This piece of beauty and I have a history. The one that personally amuses me. On a walk back from a seminar on Paleolithic Archaeology, this guy I was walking home with, tells me a story, which I will now tell you:
So, there's this guy, Will Hunting, who is a janitor at MIT. One fine day, the professor of Mathematics, puts up a really complicated Math problem on the board as a challenge for his students. Nobody is able to solve it but Will does because he is this amazing, self-taught genius. However, Will is not emotionally stable. He tends to have fits of rage and is scared to explore relationships...
Why? I asked, really curious by this time.
Do you have an access to movies?
Yes.
Very good! Now, go home, and watch it!
I remember hating the friend with every cell in my body at that time.Walking on the streets of Oxford, with snow in your hair, kept warm only with the power of a story, which the narrator had no inclination of completing really annoyed me. Looking back, however, I realise it was probably for the best. I wouldn't have watched it otherwise!
Though very predictable for a Robin Williams movie, Good Will Hunting is a beautiful story nonetheless, with an AMAZING soundtrack to die for, and a story that's midway between August Rush and A Beautiful Mind, with a dash of Dead Poets' Society in it. Needless to say, whether you get these references or not, whether you've watched all these movies or have just found out about them, Good Will Hunting cannot fail to make a small place in your heart even if it has failed to leave a big impact on you. At the end of the day, something, anything or everything about this movie, will have charmed you!
