Notes on…

Good Will Hunting(1997)

Dir. Directed by Gus Van Sant


Jocks […] turned Gus Van Sant’s shallow, self-absorbed Good Will Hunting into the dude movie of the moment, proving that there are times when it’s alright for a guy to cry like a little bitch…preferably when women aren’t actually the ones who bring down their defenses.

Synopsis: Will Hunting is a headstrong, working-class genius who is failing the lessons of life. After one too many run-ins with the law, Will's last chance is a psychology professor, who might be the only man who can reach him.
