I suddenly want to see this again. I haven’t since early ’98. During filming Matt Damon was 26, and Ben Affleck was 24. After a strong 17-year run, Robin Williams was nailing his last high-quality, emotional bull’s-eye film role — roughly on par with Dead Poet’s Society. Five years after Good Will Hunting he played a pair of psychos in Chris Nolan‘s Insomnia — his last grade-A film — and One-Hour Photo. He hung in there for the next 12-plus years but the glory days had ended.
