Appalled that such a talent should be lost to science, maths professor Lambeau (Stellan Skarsgård) takes the boy under his wing, arranges for him to get psychiatric help, and watches Will make monkeys of the shrinks. He's a closet genius, a volatile orphan who'd rather hang out with his beer buddies than parlay his brains into the lucrative career that would seem to be his destiny. Matt Damon (who co-scripted, with Ben Affleck) plays Will, a janitor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Good Will Hunting's sincerity comes capitalised, which is not to deny the film is honest and moving in its way.
