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.

Reviews Received the DVD with no case. That was not the way it was described in the ad. Asked the seller to send the case, but received no response. Review ID: 10000000009028294 Was this review helpful? Report this review 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 Review ID: 10000000004160290 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
