This movie has always moved me. Maybe it comes from the abuse as a child, but when he hugs Will and tells him it isnt his fault that gets me every time.
Same situation and same reaction to the very same scene. Maybe our inner child just accepting. I hope you get some peace. 🙏🏻
I feel it as well!
Part of it. When we live that, we are dying for someone to be a father...which RW was to Will. He wasn't a counselor, he was dad...ish. I can't read the comment "it's not your fault" without a visceral feeling. That's why this movie, Rocky, and Karate Kid get us grown men to cry. My wife doesn't fart in her sleep, but she sure can snore. It is definitely the little things at that point. Thanks for the comment
I would hope this movie moves anyone who watches it.
It makes me bawl like a baby. Narcissistic Abuse survivor here and I always wished I had had someone like Williams' character in my corner to help me.
My favorite scene is when Ben Affleck’s character tells him that he doesn’t want him wasting his potential. That he wants him to use that brain of his to go live a better life. And that although he loves being around his best friend he wishes that when he arrives at his house to not see him there and instead see that he packed up and left.
My favorite line from that monologue is when he says, "You don't owe it to yourself. You owe it to *me*."
Affleck's character is really a true friend. He wants his friend to have a better life, even if it means that he doesn't ever see him again or even get to say goodbye. He'd be at peace just knowing his friend had done it.
17:24 One of the best monologues ever written, in my opinion.
This won then unknowns Matt Damon and Ben Affleck an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. 🏆🏆
So. let me share with you something, the first time I went to Boston after Robin Williams passed away, I went to Boston Commons and I found the bench they're at, and I cried for about an hour. Robin Williams was like my sadness cure, all his movies from Mrs. Doubtfire to The Birdcage always made me laugh and feel better no matter how bad the day was. Thank you guys for always viewing these movies and sharing with us your reactions, so I wanted to share a moment of mine with you
Even what dreams may come😭
Yes! Him and Jim Carrey are the only comedians I like. All other comedians suck compared to those 2
I believe the bench is actually in the Boston Public Garden across Charles Street (divides the Common/Public Garden).
Who cares??
The bench scene with Robin Williams monologue is just amazing acting. This is my favorite role of his. Such a great screenplay. The way Will tells her he doesn't love her is such a dagger, and it always hurts to watch, even when I know the ending.
19:18 - The moment when a film hits you with something really profound and human; this movie may well be the most dramatic film Mish & Ellie have seen (for the channel). Super to see how much the girls were genuinely impressed and touched by this classic. It’s certainly one of my “favourite” movies too, Mish.
RIP and long live Robin Williams (July 21, 1951 - August 11, 2014), aged 63
You will always be remembered as a legend.
Today marks 8 years since he passed away.
so many beautiful monologues in this movie. so well-made and well-directed
I love Ellie, but I CAN NOT BELIEVE THIS. I'm in shock over here trying to understand this. She just watched Good Will Hunting and didn't shed a single tear. Not even during the "It's not your fault" scene. I once watched her cry during Wonder Woman, and it wasn't even an emotional scene. Wonder Woman was beating people up and she was all tears! But orphans being physically abused, leading to years of trauma and emotional detachment, and nothing from her!
I remember when she used to do reactions by herself she was always crying. Not sure what changed now that she reacts with those other girls.
@@cesarnarro6013 she still cries. Just not in this one. Which is why I find it so weird
@@richiecabral3602 well i guess I've mostly only clicked on to her with her friends when they've reacted to comedies and on a lot of those i think there were always language issues that they seemed not to get some of the jokes.
Another fantastic movie is called Scent Of A Woman, starring Al Pacino. It has an iconic scene much like the bench scene in this one. 10/10 would recommend
Good call! The Homies absolutely need to watch and react to Scent Of A Woman! Great film!
This is one of the movies that is a must-watch before you die. The writing, the dialogue, acting, and chemistry of each pair....just so good!
I'd HIGHLY RECOMMEND A Beautiful Mind. As it is based on a real person who was a prodigy and with mental health issues.
I saw this movie in 1997 and returned to university shortly after for graduate school. I’ve been working as a psychotherapist ever since that time.
Is the experience fulfilling as it sounds?
@@Myce, more so.
The writing of this is just great & all the actors do a hell of a job especially Matt Damon & Robin.nothing gets me more than just seeing great dialogue & I cry anytime I watch this & it’s just real, so human & real nothing else
I would absolutely love to watch you girls react to "Mrs. Doubtfire" starring Robin Williams. Definitely one of his most enduring roles.
Yup, they're much better off reacting to comedies. These two chuckle-heads aren't cut out for serious dramas.
I like this movie a lot and was totally surprised when I read that Matt Damon & Ben Affleck wrote the script themselves
“Son of a bitch, stole my line.” Was improvised by Robin Williams. Perfect timing, one of the greatest and most profound actors ever!
This movie has touched a lot of people, especially those who love Robin Williams. I went to the place they filmed the bench scene looking out over the water in Boston and people had written quotes from the movie on the walkway in front of the bench in different colors of chalk. I still remember standing there with several other people I've never met looking at it and reading all the words. "Your move Chief" is one I'll never forget. The movie is brilliant, but Robin Williams was able to squeeze our hearts for every tear without much effort at all. His roles in "Dead Poet's Society" and "What Dreams May Come" really show the softer side of Robin Williams. R.I.P. Mork!
When Robin Williams was telling the story about his wife farting in her sleep, it was all adlibbed. He had the cast and crew laughing so much you can actually see the camera shaking at one point because the cameraman was laughing.
I remember that day too, Oct 21, 1975. I was seven years old and my folks let me stay up late to watch that baseball game on TV. Good Times, just don't ask about the next one...
This movie is so good. Always hits me in the feels.
Robin did some great heartfelt movies. Dead Poets Society, awakenings, Mrs Doubtfire, good morning Vietnam. Amazing that Matt and Ben started writing this when they were teens, having zero idea how to script write! And then won Oscars! And how they got Robin and Stellen to star in this movie I'll never know! After Robin died, Matt said he goes to the park bench once a year on his or Robin's bday, and sometimes takes his kids. The city has made that park bench an official memorial. Pro tip. The, wife farting, scene. That part was adlibbed! U can tell not only because Matt's uncontrollable laughter, but the frame of the camera is shaking because the cameraman is cracking up!
"It's not your fold" so simple but just the right thing he need it to hear and understand
Still one of the best written scripts ever...
And they wrote it in college. Insane to think about
Robin Williams won an Oscar for this role, while Ben Affleck and Matt Damon won an Oscar for Best Screenplay.
The story about the wife farting and waking up the dog was improvised. If you look carefully, the camera is shaking, due to the cameraman laughing.
Cap
42:01 the Boston accent is so strong .... it's spreading to Michelle during just 1 movie
This movie is amazing. I always cry when I see it. Thank you so much for watching and reacting to it. It’s one of my favourites. Please get Magy to watch it ❤️😂☺️
We all love ❤️ & miss you 😢 Robin Williams
For *comedic* Robin Williams: Mrs. Doubtfire
For *dramatic* Robin Williams: Dead Poets Society
For *creepy* Robin Williams: One Hour Photo
20:00 It is the same tactic cops use in interrogation. Humans usually find it awkward sitting in a room across from each other without speaking. One person breaks, then the conversation flows. Think about dinners with your parents and siblings, when the silence comes. Or friends or whatever. It's human psychology 101
Michelle! Your hair color looks very nice and also the same as a very good friend's color who also is named Michelle. Thanks for your content always, Homies! Glad to see you!
I’ve said before and I’ll repeat it. It would be wise to watch this film once a year to refresh one’s memory and soul.
Good Will Hunting could have won the Academy Awards Best Picture if it wasn’t for Titanic that came out the same year.
I didn't know how this would go... if the reaction would be serious... but at the moment when it counts... the famous Robin Williams monologue that many (including me) think of as the greatest in cinema history... you two young ladies... found it... along with every last bit of this spectacular movie... you were both absolutely spot-on! This is a great GWH reaction!
Ellie: 36:59 "when you blow it you make it bigger"
Seriously though, great reaction enjoyed watching this again with you. Love how expressive you are during these.
Ben and Matt wrote the screenplay together, and stared in the movie, and won academy award. It launched both their careers.
He was an orphan, he didn't have any brother's back @ home, he made that story up about having 12 brothers.
32:00 It is a pretty good description. I used to call it flow. Like in sports, but with learning. When I see Messi move that is how my mind works. I think he has it too.
4:15 he reads books on the subject. Also he’s just a janitor, he’s not a student at the university.
My two favorite Homies 💞
I love watching your reactions.
I can’t believe that Ellie didn’t shed a tear. Usually she feels sentimental moments deeply.
Another movie which has a sort of similar vibe is called Finding Forrester. Has Sean Connery in it. Really fantastic movie.
Ellie (36:58): " when you blow it you make it bigger" 😂🤭
Our words have power…
Imagine you are standing in your kitchen holding a lemon that you have just taken from the refrigerator. It feels cold in your hand. Look at the outside of it, its yellow skin. It is a waxy yellow, and the skin comes to small green points at the two ends. Squeeze it a little and feel its firmness and its weight.
Now raise the lemon to your nose and smell it. Nothing smells quite like a lemon does it? Now cut the lemon in half and smell it. The odour is stronger. Now bite deeply into the lemon and let the juice swirl around in your mouth. Nothing tastes like a lemon either, does it?
At this point, if you have used your imagination well, your mouth will be watering.
Consider the implications of this.
Words, mere words, affected your salivary glands. The words did not even reflect reality, but something you imagined. When you read those words about the lemon you were telling your brain you had a lemon, though you did not mean it. Your brain took it seriously and said to your salivary glands, “I’am biting a lemon. Hurry wash it away.” The glands obeyed.
Most of us think the words we use reflect meanings and that what they mean can be good or bad, true or false, powerful or weak. True, but that is only half of it.
WORDS NOT ONLY REFLECT REALITY, THEY CREATE REALITY… like the flow of saliva.
The brain is no subtle interpreter of our intentions - it receives information and stores it, and is in charge of our bodies.
For the Yellowstone viewers here, the dude with the red curly hair, yup, that's Rip.
""When you blow it, you make it bigger"
This is such an excellent movie! Great reaction.
I have a movie reaction suggestion for you and its going to be the only one on youtube for either of these and I highly recommend them! I promise you will appreciate them.
1. Stoning Soraya M
2. House of Sand and Fog
This movie got made because Ben and Matt went to school with robin’s daughter. The Elliot smith and Danny elfmen music puts it over the top.
Just for the record, Ben A. and Matt D. wrote the script for this movie among other movies they did.
For more Minnie Driver (Skylar) try Grosse Point Blank - comedy with John Cusack as a hitman that goes back to his high school reunion.
Love this movie... but I have to tell you I don't give good odds on that car making it 3,100 miles from Boston to California 🤣🤣 Couple new suggestions: "The Game" (1997) with Michael Douglas, "Memento" (2000), and "Shutter Island" (2010) with Leonardo DiCaprio. You'll be asking yourselves what the hell is going on with all three of those. Great reaction!
Ellie, Will is bound by nothing in any work field, Will has no "field", janitor, a mathematician in the .01%; look how fast he did Skylar's homework, he himself could be a medical student!!
Director Gus Van Sant's follow up to this movie, is another great movie called, Finding Forrester. While it isn't quite as good as this one, it's still an excellent film and also happens to be Sean Connery's 2nd to last role before retiring, after the trainwreck known as The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen killed his desire to continue acting.
This script is still in the Vancouver Film School Curriculum for Acting and Screenwriting
This movie reminds me of me too of the abuse.
Minus the mathematician.lmao
Y'all are so sweet and cute with your reactions . That's why I follow . Thanks for reminding me why I love this movie .
30:00 To get more into Ted Kaczynski, he was a former mathematician who abandoned his bright future in academia due to his growing disassociation with modernization and his love for nature. He bought a plot of land in Montana where he could live as minimalistically as possible, but over time, his private sanctuary was slowly encroached upon by development further estranging himself and creating a deep resentment to those who he thought bared responsibility for what he perceived as the destruction of earth. He soon turned radical and began sending improvised bombs to (what at the time seemed unrelated targets) people who he thought were primary role-player's in the worlds destruction. His spree of terrorism occurred between early 80's to mid 90's and was rather intriguing in American culture and rather relevant during the making of the movie. On a side note, Ted wrote a manifesto that he demanded be posted in national newspapers which led to his apprehension, as his sister-in-law noticed the manifesto has similar prose as what Ted routinely wrote to his brother David, who ended up reporting him to the FBI. I believe you can find his manifesto online somewhere, its surprisingly well thought out considering it was literally the first draft. While Ted is still alive, hes currently incarcerated and likely has terminal prostate cancer though i dont think thats been officially stated.
“How do you like them apples?!” 🍎
These are the best kind of movies. The 90s was a great movie era! We don't need Marvel for things to be intense.
This movie introduced me to Elliott Smith, who became my favorite singer/songwriter ever.
Did you recongise young Ben Affleck? Batman from "Batman v. Superman" and "Justice League". And brother's actor is his real brother Casey
If the park scene doesn’t make your eyes tear up there is something wrong with you . Great movie
I always smile at Ellie and Michelle's reactions to the love stories, especially because Michelle is always commenting on needing a boyfriend 😄
How? How does SHE not have a boyfriend (yes, I know nothing about her off channel, I've just seen a log of guys give a lot for a a lot less than her)?
One of my favorite movies by all three, Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and of course Robin Williams(RIP). They should watch “Mrs Doubtfire” and “Hook” next
🌹🌹 Ladies, beautiful reaction! There are a lot of great movies from the 90s. :
Sommersby ( 1993 ) , The Last of the Mohicans ( 1992 ) , Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves ( 1991 ) , City of Angels ( 1998 ). Trust me! You will love these magical movies forever! 🌹🌹
That was a good 1970s disco song "afternoon delight"
The blow job, cup of coffee joke went right over your heads(don’t worry it did me too. My friend had to explain it to me actually. I’m smart but dumb) but that was the funniest line in the movie
I imagine the 'how do you like them apples' joke doesn't land for any non-native English speaker.
39:58 Yep
Ellie: "When you blow it, you make it bigger!"
Me: Heh.
17:25 Watching an actor win an Oscar
And 2 screenplay writers do same. If it wasn't an adlib.
One of the all time best movies.
It's weird watching people with no remorse or empathy..... Tears have no sway with those that have none to give.
You know, I thought the same thing about my gf when we first started seeing each other. The first few movies we watched that usually inspire waterworks & had me with rivers down my face, she sat there staring blankly and never reacted. Comedies, same thing, she never laughed. I thought it was something wrong, but then we were walking past the train station on the way to a show one day and an elderly homeless man was sitting there shivering. She broke down in tears & couldn't stop crying. She stopped me & insisted we go get a blanket and a hot meal to bring him. We were late for the show and knew we'd miss it if we didn't get there before the doors closed & wouldn't be able to get a refund or anything, but she didn't care. She brought the old man a big, piping hot meal and I got him a waterproof blanket. She made sure we went back there to check on the guy at least a few times a month and would always bring him something we thought he might need or would make him a little more comfortable. Eventually, she convinced him to go to a shelter, then eventually to talk to his family, then eventually to go visit them, then his family eventually invited him to come live with them. He's got a job at a cornershop in another city where he lives with his kid & grandkids now, but he still calls to talk every week or so. I don't remember the name of the show we missed, but I'll never forget what she did for that old man in need. I asked her about the movie thing & she didn't even realize she wasn't outwardly reacting - it was just the way she was with movies. Talking about the movies later on, though, she shows all the emotion in the world. It's just a quirk, and I'm so happy I didn't make a poor decision about being with her based on a poor assumption.
No one is perfect. We are all frail human beings.
38:10 I am lucky I do have a best friend/ soul mate. But I am too like this. Having debates with dead people that I have read. Finding new arguments
oooooh snap!! Tears will be ROLLLIN!!! haha cant wait!
0:01 i remember my first time
35:22 Yes, you are right. Did the same stupid thing in my 20's. Not exactly but close. But she was right. I got afraid that I wouldn't love her after the chemicals left my brain, ie honeymoon period.
Great movie again :) . You should do Robin Williams Awakenings next . Also you can do Matt Damon The Rainmaker. You can also do some movies no reactor will ever do like Cadlic Man or The Dead Poet Society
Anyone that has seen a therapist will know: no professional will talk to his patients the way Robin does. He talks to Matt as if they’re simply friends. In reality the therapist mostly asks questions & it’s not personal
Most therapists, and I mean 99.999%, will never work with a 20 year old who has a genius level intellect.
Nevermind the personality and mental issues.
That circumstance demands unorthodox methods.
I don’t agree. How many therapists been u been to?
That is why most therapy sucks at what it is for. I have been to many therapists.
@@rastiga9196 - Most therapists are far more unstable than the people who come to them for help. Take a gander at an average bunch of college kids studying psychology, and you'll realize that 99% of them are nuttier than squirrel shit.
My wife is a licensed therapist. She said you have to use whatever tools you can to build rapport with the client. It doesn't mean you're their friend, but you can't sit there stonefaced in an authoritarian high chair and expect to make the connection with the client you have to make to help them.
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
28:00 LOL. Best. Reaction. Ever.
"What Dreams May Come" and "Patch Adams" are both heartbreaking movies with Robin Williams.
"Mrs. Doubtfire" is a good comedy movie.
Disney animated movie "Aladdin" he voiced Genie
The girl on the right laugh's like lelou from the fifth element
Men are afraid and scared of getting our hearts broken as well.
52:26 - Yes, ladies, I know. I'm still waiting for Vicky to return my call so we can go out on our date.
"I thought it was a camel race."
21:12 I know that fear
Matt and Ben made this screenplay whilst they were literally 18.
I applaud you guys for giving it a try but some of the dialogue in this movie is hard for native English speakers to undertand let alone non native speakers haha
love this movie
This was a great movie, but Dead Poets Society is Robin Williams best movie in my opinion! Please react to it!
Hello. I’d like to recommend a movie for you to react to. In my opinion it is very underrated and probably no one would ever vote for. But I think you should watch “With Honors” (1994). It’s no “Good Will Hunting”, but I think it’s a really great movie that does not get enough credit.
homies you need to watch "an officer and a gentleman" . (a must see because you liked this one.)
21:33 Sounds like a plan. Yet I didn't and he didn't have that opportunity.
Please do watch every Robin Williams film - he was such a great actor. He's the one voicing Genie in "Aladdin" cartoon
R.I.P., Robin.😢
If you like the dynamic of young Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, you might enjoy watching Dogma, starring the doctor from Men in Black's morgue and Snape, I mean, Allan Rickman, also presenting Damon, Affleck, Bob and Silent Jay, Salma Hayek, Chris Rock, ...
Matt Damon (Will hunting) will always be Private James Francis Ryan from Saving Private Ryan to me 😊 😂😃😀😢
