About
As of 2026, it's 29 years old.
Good Will Hunting is the film that launched Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, who wrote it themselves and won an Oscar for the screenplay — a janitor-genius drama anchored by Robin Williams's warm, Oscar-winning therapist and the gentlest, most famous 'it's not your fault' in movie history.
Its blend of working-class Boston grit, math-prodigy fantasy, and genuine emotional catharsis made it a beloved tearjerker.
Smart, heartfelt, and quietly devastating, Good Will Hunting is the drama two young friends wrote for themselves that turned them into stars.
