Movie Description
A South Boston whiz kid elects to clean the halls of learning rather than enter them, slumming his way through life as a janitor at MIT. But his natural ability to unravel complex equations attracts the attention of a professor who won't let him quit, a beautiful Harvard student who wants to save him, a sympathetic buddy who wants him to escape South Boston, and a counselor who encourages him. A soundly acclaimed, homegrown effort from lifelong Boston buddies Damon and Affleck, who pushed their script through development by disguising it as a suspense thriller.

Producer:Lawrence Bender

    This movie won the Academy Award in 1998 for best screenplay and deservingly so.
    I particularly enjoy the bonus materials such as deleted scenes, various movie trailers, commercial television spots, in depth interviews, behind the scenes look of the movie, and commentary from Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and Gus Van Sant during the movie. This movie is my favorite movie of all time because it was well written and directed.
    Thanks,
    Michael
