Good Will hunting

Scripted by lead actors Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, 'Good Will Hunting' is a story of male identity and belonging. Will Hunting (Damon) is janitor at a prestigious university who harbours a secret regarding his phenomenal memory and abilities as a mathematician. When he solves a maths question that has all the students stumped, Hunting is induced by a pre-eminent professor to join the college. Through therapy Hunting is forced to face his personal history of abuse, subsequent feelings of worthlessness, and his blue-collar snobbery toward the establishment. Chuckie (Affleck), Hunting's childhood friend, implores him to leave his working class roots behind and explore his potential elsewhere. The script is fleshed out with interesting secondary characters, such as Sean McGuire, Hunting's doctor, who has his own personal demons to exorcise.

  • "Will Hunting (Matt Damon) is a young man who has a special gift, mathematics. Everything is as easy as brushing his teeth. Will spends his time as a janitor in MIT. And while cleaning the floors one day, he catches the attention of Professor Lambeau by solving a math problem. On the other hand, Will is sent to jail after he hit a cop. Lambeau offers to help Will out, under the agreement that Will study math with Lambeau and meet with a therapist. Lambeau then brings in his old roomate, Sean McGuire (Robin Williams), to help Will out. While Sean works to assist Will, it seems that Will is also helping Sean. Their relationship turns out to be a strong one..."

  • "Will Hunting son derece zeki fakat eziyet çekmiş genç bir adamdır. Bir matematik dehasıdır. Yine başını derde sokan kahramanımızı, onun zekasını keşfeden matematik profesörü Lambeau kurtarır ancak iki şartı vardır: Will, Lambeau ile matematik derslerine katılmalı ve terapiye başlamalıdır. Bütün bu olup bitenler sırasında Bay Hunting, başarılı ve güzel bir kızın ilgisini çekmeyi başarır. Beş parasız olan bu genç adam, zengin kız arkadaşından hayat ve sevmek üzerine çok şey öğrenecektir."@tr
  • "Der aus einfachen Verhältnissen stammende Will Hunting jobbt als Reinigungskraft am Massachusetts Institute of Technology, und keiner ahnt, dass in ihm ein mathematisches Genie steckt. Mühelos löst er die für die Studenten angeschriebenen Aufgaben. Doch als der eigensinnige Will nach einer Schlägerei im Gefängnis landet, liegt sein Schicksal in den Händen des Therapeuten Sean Maguire. Nach und nach findet der exzentrische Psychologe Zugang zu dem verschlossenen jungen Mann und bringt ihn dazu, sich seinen Gefühlen, Ängsten und letztlich auch seiner Zukunft zu stellen."

  • "Four working-class friends hang out together in South Boston, but one of them, pugnacious Will Hunting, has an unusual gift: he's a genius. When M.I.T. math professor Skarsgård gets wind of this, he insists that the young man stop wasting his talents, and sends him to a psychologist/teacher to try to crack his brittle shell."
  • "Will es un joven rebelde con una inteligencia asombrosa, especialmente para las matemáticas. El descubrimiento de su talento por parte de los profesores le planteará un dilema: seguir con su vida de siempre -un trabajo fácil, buenos amigos, muchas cervezas y alguna bronca- o aprovechar sus grandes cualidades intelectuales en alguna universidad. Sólo los consejos de un solitario y bohemio profesor le ayudarán a decidirse."
  • "Like his friends in down-town, working-class South Boston, Will Hunting spends his days between menial jobs, street brawling and stints at the local bar. Yet he can summon obscure historical references from his photographic memory and solve mathematical problems that have stumped Nobel Prize winning professors. But the one thing Will Hunting can't do is talk his way out of a pending jail term and only one man is capable of rescuing Will from complete self destruction."@en
