A very good movie

I have always been amazed that, according to Imdb, ‘Good Will Hunting’ is still Gus Van Sant’s best movie. I saw it again recently and, honestly, I think it is a decent drama and an entertaining feature but I don’t see what was so amazing about it.

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 80’s (1473 movies items)

" Portland, Oregon, 1971. Bob Hughes is the charismatic leader of a peculiar quartet, formed by his wife, Dianne, and another couple, Rick and Nadine, who skillfully steal from drugstores and hospital medicine cabinets in order to appease their insatiable need for drugs. But neither fun nor luck last forever. This film was based on the writings of James Fogle who was a real-life criminal and drug addict who robbed drugstores. The film was theatrically released in the United States on October 6"

Movies I watched in April 2019 (21 movies items)

" Date: 4/28/2019 Viewed: Amazon Prime (Rental) First Viewing Note: I haven't watched many movies lately due to work and playing Mortal Kombat 11 lately. I wanted to check out this movie for a long time now because I like Gus Van Sant's work. I end up loving this movie from start to finish. I love all of the characters and I found the whole movie to be pretty relaxing to watch. They also did a great job of telling a really good story as well. I highly recommend this film. "
