Rated: Good ( ) I'll grant that reading a screenplay is quite a change-up from novels, but I liked this movie, and the book caught my eye at Goodwill (which by itself is an interesting coincidence). The story is that of a young math wizard who is hiding his talent under a mop in a bucket full of dirty water. Working as a janitor at M.I.T., Will Hunting, not yet 21, comes upon a blackboard on which a professor has written a math challenge for his students to try to solve for extra credit. Will picks up the chalk and quickly writes the solution. Everyone is gobsmacked. Who did this? Who solved it? No one knows, but the professor wants to find out. The guy who solved it, as well as subsequently posted challenges, is an orphan, physically and mentally abused by foster parents, with a public-school education (if that), living in a rented room in South Boston, and hangin' out with three unskilled, directionless friends. Much beer is consumed in corner taverns; occasionally there's a fight. Will has a police record, and his most recent fight is going to land him in the pokey. Until the professor intercedes with a plan to keep Will working his math genius while getting behavioral/psychological counseling. And so it goes. Damon and Affleck created the script for themselves and shopped it around filmland. Optioned and produced, it was not only a box office success, it garnered Oscars for the writers and an Oscar for Robin Williams' performance as a psychologist, left adrift by the death of his wife, who helps Will (and himself). nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Guida alla lettura di
Wildly charismatic, impossibly brilliant, totally rebellious - Will Hunting is a mathematical genius who lives on the fringes of society, refusing to accept the talent that he has for maths and taking, instead, a job as a cleaner in a university. A psychologist takes him under his wing and tries to help Hunting resolve the traumas that beset him. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck - lifelong friends and two of the best actors of their generation - have written a film that is funny, ironic and profoundly moving; one that is filled with empathy for society's outsiders and their struggle to fight their way through life.
