Good Will Hunting (1997) - Synopsis

Buy DVD at Amazon
Will Hunting is 20 years old and has never been to college, except for when he scrubs the floors at MIT. He has some temper problems and has many run-ins with the law. Hunting is also a genius. With a photographic memory, he can remember entire history books and solve math problems that stump Nobel-Prize winning professors. When he is arrested, however, his keen intellect can't get him out. Instead, he is forced to turn to a therapist, Sean McGuire, who understands his pain and the troubles of growing up in South Boston. And when a woman gets involved, Hunting becomes determined to straighten his ways.
