That would imply the person does not have the cure for cancer. Anyone with the proper education and enough time can do anything. That is like saying if Einstein graduated high school. He would have unified gravity with the other forces. It is just nonsense words.

To all the folks that say Matt just slopped the mop out of the bucket without wringing it out. That's exactly how you heavy duty industrial mop...you start with a freshly swept floor THEN lay down a good layer of water/cleaner over an area, then rinse out and thoroughly wring out the mop, and go back to where you began and mop up the standing water solution til all the water you put down mopped up. I did this in a dry brake/ friction machine shop I worked at for bout 16 years and the entire kitchen area I worked at in a restaurant through high school. Not exactly what youd do for your kitchen at home. Outside of that, this movie is possible the best I saw concerning several years around when this came out. Brilliant
That wasn't a kitchen or area effected by grease or heavy soiling of anything other than dust and tennis shoe traffic and maybe the occasional coffee spill. So industrial mopping is not required.

Eddie Sloan, it's nice that you have so much compassion and empathy for those who struggle with depression. isn't it nice that you grew up in a stable environment, sheltered by loving parents who kept you safe and warm so you never had to overcome any adversity until you were well beyond high school. If the cliche of walk in someone else's shoes applies to anyone you seem like the perfect candidate.
You'd be surprised to know that this kind of writing is extremely common in Hollywood. The problem, even after the success of this film, is that most studios won't take a chance on scripts like this and always opt for the ones where many things are being blown up, transformed, or fight Tom Cruise at the end!
LOL... You realize of course that if they enforced everyone's wish for a "required reading", "mandatory viewing", etc. of one thing or another, it would take at least 250 years to get through high school...😬
Thanks. Every time I see any clip from GWH, I never fail to re-watch the entire movie within a day or two. The emotions which I feel equal those upon my first viewing of this masterpiece of cinema.
Rumor is that there was a ghostwriter on the script and Matt and Ben didn't actually write this. You win an oscar for writing something but then you never write another original movie? People will say because they became busy acting. Well, Stallone, Rogen, Jason Segel, Clooney are writers who also act in many movies. Yes Ben and Matt have written but nothing original. They have come in to rewrite other people's work.
It wasn't photographic, he had to solve it for himself - then once he knew what the solution was, he didn't need to copy or remember it... he would just finish it again on the school blackboard. He was figuring it out... a photographic memory would remember things, but not necessarily understand them.
It's like the "beautiful mind movie" where he's solving the problems on the window with a grease pencil, it isn't about memorizing... it's about understanding, once they understand what the answer is - they can reproduce it afterward.
If this was photographic, he wouldn't need a mirror or window to work the steps - he would work them all in his mind... it was more about understanding, not remembering.
Remember when he was trying to explain his genius to Skylar? "Mozart, Beethoven just looked at a keyboard and it all made sense to them and they could just play. Now I can't hit a ball out of Fenway Park, and I can't play piano. But when it comes to this, I could just play." In real life, Mozart had a photographic memory. He could listen to an entire symphony, then transcribe the whole thing for every instrument on to sheet music. Mozart also remembered what notes people played from days before. He also completed compositions in his head before transcribing them onto sheet music. Mozart was the "Sir Isaac Newton" of music, just like Bach and Beethoven. Michelangelo and Leonardo DaVinci had that same kind of genius to see a completed work in marble and on canvas.
@@golfhound when they were dating at the park, yeah, I remember. Isn't Mozart the first guy who pirated music? Haha. It was the Vatican's Miserere IIRC. Guy just heard the piece in the Church and recreated it lol. The church was so mad at him he got excommunicated for a while 🤣🤣🤣
Will makes his entrance pushing a mop bucket. Then he lifts the mop directly from the water and slops it onto the floor without first wringing it out. Ridiculous. A janitor who had any idea what they were doing would never do this. Fortunately he's a genius, because he sure isn't Good Will Mopping.
@@muchograndeyolatengo that's for kitchens or places with heavy cleaning needing done. A place like this hallway a good old sailors mop with a damp mop will keep it clean provided regular cleaning. This isnt rocket surgery folks. Its mopping.

This film was brilliant because you would think Lambeau would be the antagonist of the movie but in so many nuanced scenes primarily between he and Robin Williams, it proved neither one was wrong about how they chose to go about things regarding Will. Lambeau was right, Will needed to be pushed, but Robin was too that you had to do it a certain way. His character definitely provided a perfect contrast and context to a remarkably written film.
Like a janitor, before Will could be launched into the future to reach his potential, he first had to mop up the mess from his past. Lambeau could look up and see Will's future. Sean had to dig deep to see Will's past. Had Lambeau and Sean communicated without having their own pasts getting in the way, the best path for Will to take may have been a little easier.
The professor should ask his students if they like apples. The tell them who solved the problem and say "it was the janitor, how do you like those apples"
Not realy, there are maybe 10-15 people like this in the entire world ( an optimistic guess I am sure ), and while there are plenty of geniuses hiding in plain sight, they are not so smart that the average joe cannot fathom it.
Not working jobs like this. The unrealistic part is not that a poor kid is a genius. The unrealistic part is that he would choose to remain poor doing blue collar jobs when he could easily make a killing and bring his standard of living up, especially since the movie never gave a solid reason why
@@Inndjkaawed2922 You are definitely right. But here we are not talking about any university. MIT has some math online actual courses online. If you are talking about any university, I wonder what would stop you from doing it instead of imagine it.
Makes sense. Just realized after watching this scene for the 100th time that there are lockers in the hallway. I’ve never seen a college building with lockers like that.
I’ve always thought he splashed the mop to get them to move. In fact I think that’s definitely why. Though it is funny to think what they thought about it😂
Why do they not teach actors how to do normal things? He just straight up slaps a soaking wet mop on the floor. There's gonna be water everywhere and it'll never dry! He's supposed to squeeze it out with the small opening in the top back of the bucket.
varun009 -- Sorry but you are wrong. Many decades ago, I worked in a cafeteria and was mopping the floor. An older co-worker, an ex-marine, told me I was doing it wrong, then proceeded to instruct me on how they do it in the military: Fill the bucket with HOT, slightly soapy water. Then you liberally slop the water over the floor first (which loosens any dirt, stains), then go back over it with a squeezed mop as many times as necessary. Simple and efficient.
Watching this video reminds me of when I was working at a Dell in QUEENS years ago and I went to a gas station to get gas. On that day, the attention of the guy working, his name was Albert LUCUS and he asked me if there was a job at the Dell and I didn't have a answer, so I went back and talked to the owner, and I said CHARLIE is there a opening and he said I will make room and ALBERT worked for 5 years and he applied to The CULINARY INSTITUTE OF AMERICA UPSTATE NEW YORK STATE. He graduated with HONORS top in his class and I was so happy for him, and he work's in WASHINGTON DC for the SENATE and he is from QUEENS nyc
In my Calc 3 class there was a really young kid ( he looked about 16) while the rest of us were 20+ something who aced the class. Turned out he was a kid of Indian decent who only had been in the U.S. for 6 years. Most gifted kid I ever met. He ended up working at Google.
Wait ... So, you paid someone to force you to read a list of books. Then, you paid them again to test you to ensure you read those books. Then, you paid them yet again, for a certificate that celebrates your ability to recall the dogma come test time? Oh yeah ... You're a genius 👍
It may just be me, but this scene always makes me emotional in one way or another. The accidental discovery of a genius. I think there are many undiscovered geniuses in this world who, for whatever reason, have not made it in this society through the regular means. Neither origin nor education are leading or decisive in what goes on in someone's brain or what immense talents someone possesses that may never be known to the general public. A waste of talent or a blessing for those who are left alone by society? As far as I'm concerned, there is no clear answer to this question.
"There is a problem on the board right now that took us more than two years to prove" So just look it up, wherever they published it, and copy down onto the little chalkboard. Easy!
The tree problem is rather trivial. Most undergraduate computer science students can solve it in a few minutes. I wish they had used something harder. (Of course, the drawings of the trees is visually interesting which is why they used it.)
@@87crlucas Yes you could, believe me. You just need to learn what the words of the problem mean. Once you know them, it takes no MIT student to resolve the problem. Look up this video : "The problem in Good Will Hunting - Numberphile ". It's only 5 minutes
I'm glad he made something of himself and became an assassin for the CIA. I see that his friend decided to stay in Boston and live a life of robbing banks, starring in his own movie "The Town". Later retiring in Illinois as an accountant.
Will reminds me a little of myself. By night I'm punching on, punching cones and sinking 27 schooies. By day I'm solving advanced stratospheric equations, remarkable.
I am a fourth year student of Mechatronics, robotics and automatisation. We used to do problems like that on our second year as side projects and those weren't even considered hard ones. I mean, don't get me wrong, I absolutely love this movie, it's one of the best ones in the world, but seriously, if they wanted to project a genius mathematician here, they should've hired someone who would navigate them through beautiful world of math.
This movie is for dolts like me who have no idea what's on that chalkboard. They chose problems that looked foreign and confounding to most people as a spectacle. Could they have done better? maybe... but this movie wasn't about the math. At all. - it was about psychology and experiences and personal growth. We are not all made to solve complex mathematical theorum... but we are all made to self improve.
i’m an engineer.. and the problem shown in this movie is hard even for most engineering student and much for most people were math is not their line. but considering Will has no formal education and was able to solve is already a wonder… even basic addition and subtraction will be hard for people if not taught. so don’t boast what you can and call this easy math problem, after all the movie is not about mathematics.. it’s more of psychology and transformation
Yes but visually it’s unknown to any non math educated people. It looks unique and outside of what normal people understand which is why it works as a visual showcase of their intelligence.

On that day, the attention of the guy working, his name was Albert LUCUS and he asked me if there was a job at the Dell and I didn't have a answer, so I went back and talked to the owner, and I said CHARLIE is there a opening and he said I will make room and ALBERT worked for 5 years and he applied to The CULINARY INSTITUTE OF AMERICA UPSTATE NEW YORK STATE. He graduated with HONORS top in his class and I was so happy for him, and he work's in WASHINGTON DC for the SENATE and he is from QUEENS nyc
My boy is wicked smart.
"The Janitor" was a wise guy in The Breakfast club. Never under-estimate "The Janny" Love from Scotland

In my Calc 3 class there was a really young kid ( he looked about 16) while the rest of us were 20+ something who aced the class. Turned out he was a kid of Indian decent who only had been in the U.S. for 6 years. Most gifted kid I ever met. He ended up working at Google.
Calc 3 isn't really that hard to be fair, it's just memorizing, you certainly don't need to be a genius.
continuity error: the black board is pulled down at 0:09, it stays that way at 0:38, but automatically gets at an up position at 0:45.
Good catch!
It goes down again at 0:57
One of my Top 5 Movies of all time
Tittle please
The faculty has answered, and answered with vigor...
355 dislikes....hmmm.....now we know how many accounts jimmy kimmel has on youtube
HE’s STILL MAKING MORE!!
Looks right. I love that part
Reminds me of a quote “what if the next fidget spinner is stuck in the mind of someone who can’t afford a 3D printer?”.
The shitty 3D printer at my college can’t even 3D print the CT scan of my skull
Wait ...
So, you paid someone to force you to read a list of books.
Then, you paid them again to test you to ensure you read those books.
Then, you paid them yet again, for a certificate that celebrates your ability to recall the dogma come test time?
Oh yeah ... You're a genius 👍
"The gauntlet has been thrown down, but the faculty have answered, and answered with vigor."
I like how those guys are not taking the credit
Misan they can't explain the solution and they know the professor would make them
It may just be me, but this scene always makes me emotional in one way or another. The accidental discovery of a genius. I think there are many undiscovered geniuses in this world who, for whatever reason, have not made it in this society through the regular means. Neither origin nor education are leading or decisive in what goes on in someone's brain or what immense talents someone possesses that may never be known to the general public. A waste of talent or a blessing for those who are left alone by society? As far as I'm concerned, there is no clear answer to this question.

OMG! it is Tupolev

Now I’m going to have to watch the movie again.
A street-tuff with no family and he's that smart. What a great story.
Looks right . Best line ever
The prof looks at the board and thought. Jesus Christ, it is Jason Bourne.
They took 2 years and his done in 1 min. Next words from his mind.... Finddddd himmm !!!!
EEVERYONNNEEEEE !!!!
oh wrong movie.
Matt Damon: "First of all, I am amazing...I didn't even go to school, I just KNOW things!" (Louie CK)😂😂
Professor Lambeau: "If you have any questions, I'm sure that Tom has the answers."
My dream is to be at THAT elite level of tenure!
You mean lazy, I suspect you are already at that level it's just that no one thinks you're cool
Literally every professor ever
I really love watching this🥰 I'm not good at math but now it makes me interested.
1:20 name tag says “bob” 🙃
It's good to know that he became astronout and biologist in mars in next decacde
turns out at the end the kid is actually pretty good with math, didn't see it coming
One of my favorite movies
"There is a problem on the board right now that took us more than two years to prove"
So just look it up, wherever they published it, and copy down onto the little chalkboard. Easy!
I remember watching this movie again and again and my kids nowadays watch Marvels series.
The tree problem is rather trivial. Most undergraduate computer science students can solve it in a few minutes. I wish they had used something harder. (Of course, the drawings of the trees is visually interesting which is why they used it.)
It’s a movie not a school trip to see the smartasses at MIT p.s. if the school was Stevens Institute it would have been a harder problem
It always bothered me that it's not an "Advanced Fourier System"
@@dvs6121that was the first problem, not the second
Loved the way Matt Damon humbles him
The last problem might look impressive, but is actually really simple and could have been done by any of you.
Not me. I wish I were as smart as a MIT student.
@@87crlucas Yes you could, believe me. You just need to learn what the words of the problem mean. Once you know them, it takes no MIT student to resolve the problem. Look up this video : "The problem in Good Will Hunting - Numberphile
". It's only 5 minutes
@@nephastgweiz1022 Thanks for the vote of confidence! I did love this movie, certainly one of my all time favorites.

A very different kind of superhero movie. Which is to say a thoughtful one.

Jimmy Kimmel hates everything, especially conservatives.

I'm glad he made something of himself and became an assassin for the CIA. I see that his friend decided to stay in Boston and live a life of robbing banks, starring in his own movie "The Town". Later retiring in Illinois as an accountant.
The best is when Matt said, "So what if this guy likes to putt from the rough?"
This scene is moving
Will reminds me a little of myself. By night I'm punching on, punching cones and sinking 27 schooies. By day I'm solving advanced stratospheric equations, remarkable.
"You're a clever one" 😂
chalkboard down, chalkboard up. Continuity Guy Fired.
I am a fourth year student of Mechatronics, robotics and automatisation. We used to do problems like that on our second year as side projects and those weren't even considered hard ones. I mean, don't get me wrong, I absolutely love this movie, it's one of the best ones in the world, but seriously, if they wanted to project a genius mathematician here, they should've hired someone who would navigate them through beautiful world of math.
This movie is for dolts like me who have no idea what's on that chalkboard.
They chose problems that looked foreign and confounding to most people as a spectacle. Could they have done better? maybe... but this movie wasn't about the math. At all. - it was about psychology and experiences and personal growth. We are not all made to solve complex mathematical theorum... but we are all made to self improve.
i’m an engineer.. and the problem shown in this movie is hard even for most engineering student and much for most people were math is not their line. but considering Will has no formal education and was able to solve is already a wonder… even basic addition and subtraction will be hard for people if not taught. so don’t boast what you can and call this easy math problem, after all the movie is not about mathematics.. it’s more of psychology and transformation
Oh yeah?...
Well I'm a janitor.
A wicket smaht one. So there.
Yes but visually it’s unknown to any non math educated people. It looks unique and outside of what normal people understand which is why it works as a visual showcase of their intelligence.
It's about how it reads on screen not how hard it actually is. It needs to look hard not be hard.
The chalkboard must be able to move around on it's own... within the first minute.
3:50 ... When students are so honest😢😢😢😢
You be stupid to attempt and being caught out immediately by not able to explain.
Remembering my favourite actor Robin William
Before Power Point, there was the chalkboard.
You still don't teach math using powerpoint
