Together they unpack why the story of a janitor-genius from South Boston still resonates, reflect on Robin Williams’ unforgettable performance and explore how this film made emotional vulnerability cool long before it was mainstream.From Elliott Smith’s moody soundtrack to the movie’s lasting influence on pop culture (and a few laughs about AOL screen names), Nathan and Beau dig into what makes Good Will Hunting both timeless and very, very ’90s.Read Nathan's thoughts on Good Will Hunting.Support the podcast: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/moviesarelife
