Like his friends in down-town, working-class South Boston, Will Hunting (Matt Damon) spends his days between menial jobs, street brawling and stints at the local bar. Yet, he can summon obscure historical references from his photographic memory and solve mathematical problems that have stumped Nobel Prize winning professors. But the one thing Will Hunting can not do is talk his way out of a pending jail term and only one man is capable of rescuing Will from complete self destruction. (Roadshow Entertainment)
