Good Will Hunting
Two young (then unknown) actors wrote a script that dealt with mental health issues and genius mathematicians. Within months, their script had been sold for a million dollars, the two actors (Matt Damon and Ben Affleck) were set to star, Gus Van Sant signed to direct and Robin Williams was lending big name clout to the supporting role. The result is this wonderful piece of filmmaking - not to be missed.
