　　It’s been about 20 years since Good Will Hunting hit movie theaters and made its writers and stars, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, well known. Good Will Hunting won two of the nine Oscars for which it was nominated (提名). It was one of the most lucrative (获利的) films of 1997 and earned about $225, 933, 435 worldwide. However, there are still things about its production that even the biggest Good Will Hunting fans might not know.
　　Damon said that he began writing Good Will Hunting for a playwriting class he was taking at Harvard University. After the course ended, he asked his childhood friend Affleck to help him perfect the story. Damon said that the only scene that survived was the one in which his character, a math genius, meets his psychologist. Finally, Castle Rock Entertainment bought the script (剧本).
　　Will Hunting was a physics genius at first. At the suggestion of Harvard professor and Nobel Prize-winning physicist Sheldon Glashow, Damon’s character, Will Hunting, became a math genius instead. Glashow’s brother-in-law, Daniel Kleitman, went on to work with Damon and Affleck to make sure that the dialogue would be believable. “Before I saw the movie, I was very worried that the math scenes in the movie would be foolish. But when I saw the movie, I said, ‘They did well! ’ and I remember being very pleased, ” Kleitman said.
　　Mel Gibson could have directed it. Damon told Boston, a monthly magazine, that their first choice for the film’s director was Kevin Smith, who’d directed Chasing Amy. However, Damon said, Smith refused because he didn’t feel he was right for the project. He did, however, tell his friend Harvey Weinstein to read the script, and Weinstein’s company Miramax ended up buying it from Castle Rock Entertainment in 1995. Then they met with other directors, including Mel Gibson. Mel Gibson directed it for a few months. However, he gave up at last. So Gus Van Sant finally directed the film.
