Looking forward to it so much, this is my favorite live action movie of all time, going to therapy myself i know how hard it is to feel trust around another person, but my current therapist always makes me feel comfortable, he’s like a real life Sean
HEY! There's definitely a phrase that exists, "All comedy is derived from fear" - Garnet, Steven Universe.
I absolutely love that little subtle addition you made to this video at 7:04 (shoutout to Tom & Jerry fans). Initially when I first saw your video, that duo immediately popped into my mind the moment you said "For 2, he's got a bigger issue right now, which is getting Tom & Jerry out of the room right now."
A very subtle change that's much appreciated... at least by me.
looking forward to it, I love your videos! very insightful - heightened my appreciation of the movie, and made me more comfortable with the idea of therapy.
Waiting patiently after binging the first 4.
"We make happen the stuff we fear will happen." You just helped me unravel some of my own intellectual and emotional knots in one phrase.
Then I should clarify it doesn't have to always be that way. We're not doomed to it. Self awareness and conscious intention can change unconscious tendencies. We just have to start listening out for a different narrative
I absolutely love these videos I listen to them while I clean my house I’m quickly running out of content on your channel but I’m OK with that you make great videos sir!
What I thought when I watched the scene was that Will was always going to escalate until he got a satisfactory reaction from Sean. It's what he did in the previous two therapists' offices: get himself thrown out of therapy so that he can claim it wasn't /his/ fault that no therapist would see him.
Will was deliberately trying to provoke Sean, over, and over, to get him to reject him, to prove to Will that he was right about himself, that he was this unlovable bastard that everyone would always end up rejecting. So he led with the worst of himself, using his intelligence to find holes in Sean and pry them open. And, in the end, he got exactly what he was trying to do, which doesn't show so much a problem with Sean's technique as just how good Will was at reading people.
...And then Sean went and proved Will wrong anyway, by not turning away from him. By not rejecting him. By basically saying that yes, you're a flawed human being, but I'm going to be here for you regardless, which is something that Will hasn't had in an authority figure before.
And while, in a real therapy session, I think that Sean could have made the same point -- that Will had crossed the line he was trying so desperately to cross -- without resorting to violence, I don't think you could have shown that violation (and hence, the full weight of Sean being willing to overlook it and continue to see Will) as powerfully in a film without Robin grabbing Matt's throat.
He grabbed him by the throat to get him to really shut up and listen, all the while giving him exactly what he sought, the violence…
The violence is exactly how he ended up there in the first, you hit a cop, you’re going down…I don’t care how cute or smart you are…this is the end of the line for most ppl
I randomly found this channel and OH MY GOD I love it so much! I love movie breakdowns and as soon as I found your channel, I binged your whole videography, to be this early makes me happy, keep it up my man!
Hearing this from a counselor is such a great opportunity. I'm an aspiring counselor myswlf and this is such a blessing. Also I've seen this before too good analysis Sir.
Thank you for your analysis. I can relate to a lot of the abondonment issues bcuz my mom died of brain cancer when I was around 6 or 7, and my Dad left when I was 12.
So I want to genuinely thank you for your analysis that helped me so many decades ago when I would've benefited immensely from both "Good Will Hunting" and your analysis.
How nice, music is not dominating the spoken word. So, one can really follow the great analysis.
NO! I saw this and thought that it would be the long lost ep 3
Ep3 isn't lost, it's just further back than the others because it never needed reuploading. I made a playlist for them all you can find
@@mylittlethoughttree I have never been happier to be so blind before :D
@@mylittlethoughttree I think many are anxious to watch your intepretation of the "it's not your fault scene." Is that something you're still planning on doing?
@@matthewblack8552 +1
Really like this reupload. Wow! I wonder how much of the acting in this scene was coached by a therapist SME, and how much was the work or inspiration of the actors and the director. In any case, I have always found this movie riveting. Thanks again for the reupload! ... Meant to add that this interpretation is OUTSTANDING!
Thank you for making these videos, I've been enjoying them a lot and you finally got me to see a movie. First one in five years. Wanted to have seen it before the next part came out and this video being re-uploaded reminded me. So yeah, looking forward to part five
Just leaving a comment for the algorithm, cause these videos are amazing to watch and as many people as possible should see them.
13:00 I felt Sean was picking up the topic Will brought up (books) while trying to take the lead (asking questions). Will resists this, but keeps talking about books asking questions himself and not answering many. So yeah, it's a dominance game. Who's the smartest and who leads the discussion?
Amazing work!
Your videos are both relaxing and educational. I always feel that i am spending my time on quality content. Thank you!
I really enjoyed hearing this one again. :) Normally a scene like that, where Sean grabs Will, is so unbelievable compared to what you'd expect in reality that it'd take me out of the moment and the spell of the movie would be broken for me, but with this movie that didn't happen. I think it's because that moment tells us about both characters; it's where we first learn something needs healing in Sean, too. I didn't know where the movie would go from that point, but I wanted to find out. Instead of tuning out, I was hooked. It's quite a scene. Thanks for exploring it!
Thanks...I've seen myself in this movie when I watched it....you explaining helped me understand a deeper part and or things I never thought of....I watched the others and thankfully you kept your word ...love this movie and your explanation.
The last time I was this early, I thought that the number of likes I got on a TH-cam comment actually mattered for something...
You can have a heart on your comment instead 😆
you still get my like lol
This is brilliant. I just found your channel..... have you seen Mr Robot? At least season 1? Videos on that would be amazing
Cant wait to see if you cover their last session together, it’s such an emotional climax though I’m sure that hug breaks some rules or something. “It’s not your fault”
36:48: That hits home a bit with me. 😕
YES! THIS IS WHY I SUBSCRIBED!
yay Good Will Hunting! Love this movie so much
What a pain in the add to deal with, but great video. Needs to be seen
theres a bunch of stuff, i think, across a few of your videos about this movie that have to do with them showing shawn as a therapist who is good, but also dealing with the emotions of his relationship with the professor and with his own hurts about his wife passing. and i think that would be the reasons that shawn is sensitive or trips up in some of the ways that the movie shows. like where you say, im not sure why shawn does this, i think this is a perfect explaination. and part of why shawn is so comfortable for Will in the end, i think, is because he experiences the ways in which shawn has short comings and weaknesses and a colorful life.
Hey man. Love your videos, BUT...are you EVER gonna do the 'It's not your fault' scene? I don't know if it's an 'official and scheduled' counselling session for Will, but it serves as a counselling session in reality. I been waiting half a year for you to do that scene! Your series is incomplete without it! Anyway, I'll just say again...love your videos and analysis!
Well, that will be episode 6. Episode 5 has been made but it's locked in a copyright dispute before I can release it
@@mylittlethoughttree Ah. Okay. As long as I know it's coming I can rest a little easier. Thanks!
Wow I love this content and think others should also see it. I think I'll like & comment on a video I have just seen for the first time!
Great video. I wondered if you thought it might have been worth including the detail the he was there as a court requirement ?
Am I the only one who watched this multiple times?❤️
Thank you.
You should do a character analysis video on Frank Reagan from Blue Bloods
Thanks for the re-upload. Also gay Hitler at the end always makes my day
Please do a video on Mickey Milkovich from Shameless
Could you please do an analysis on the therapy scenes from a show called “AfterLife” its on Netflix and its deals with grief, Its really good!
But Sean does tell him he will end him and he does in a loving caring way…by letting him see himself and others…how to become curious…instead of shutting down and lying to others about your feeling and yourself to keep yourself safe from another deep connection with the person you can count on, but are confused by….yourself…the answers always lie beyond yourself, in realm of imagination and exploration….once you put down your barriers, maintain strong boundaries and realize only you can hurt yourself deeply anymore…but even that’s scary…and requires courage and curiosity!?!?!!!!!😊😮😂❤🎉
Someone choked you by the neck and “they won’t give up on you, so powerful?”
Well as I say, the reality of this would be very different. Sean SHOULD be struck off, the work wouldn't progress, it'd all be a disaster...but in the world of s movie, there is some logic to what they're presenting and we can understand some of it
Hey man could you cover bojack horseman? Like each season gets an episode
A+
Could you please do an analysis of Azula from Avatar The Last Airbender? Perhaps The Beach Episode or the final episode where we see her breakdown?
If it has to be a movie scene though, perhaps Captain America Civil War, where Tony and Steve try to make peace half way through the film. I feel like there's a lot there and so many people have seen this film or at the very least know and love the characters, so it would have great reach in the sense that lots of people could relate to it
No more shenanigans; no more tomfoolery; no more ballyhoo! 🧐
What would I have to pay to get you to watch the show The Magicians and make a video about it? I'm genuinely asking.
Would you be willing to do a video on 1917 if you haven't already?
Possibly, I don't know. I haven't actually seen it yet 😅
I was wondering if this was the same video I watched before. Glad for the rewatch I’d like to get into counseling to help people, and maybe even help myself in the process. Good will hunting is definitely a fav movie every scene with robin williams is a great one, this being no exception.
Lmao "that's the name on patreon yeah"
33 minutes ago, 33 likes
Make more videos
Aye aye cap'n
But I like mental deep 😆☺️
The rapist exlpains scene???
"things can be repaired" is one of the greatest lies perpetuated by hollywood.
Some relationships and people can be repaired, but there's definitely people and relationships that are past any possible reparation too.
Are you trying to say that nothing can ever be repaired? Obviously not everything can be repaired but to try to suggest that saying "things can be repaired" is a big lie is a bit ridiculous imo
@@koolaids-man8668 they can be remaid. Not repaired
Keeping in mind that this is fiction, this is not a real session, these are not a real patient and a real therapist, that they are actors -- your commentary has less to do with counseling and more to do with scriptwriting and stage direction. That said, the bit about weightlifting was probably built into the scene so that the audience would know that Sean is a powerful man, probably much stronger than Will, so that when Sean throttles Will, there is no doubt that Will is frightened (and impressed) by it.
I would've preferred the final part instead of a re-upload. Your priorities are weird dude.
41:53 Gay hitler
29:34 You're analysis after this point is kind of lost to me in that I can't understand whatever the fuck Will just mumbled.
This is why I don't like movies.
He’s says “ever heard the saying any port in the storm?”
That’s unfathomable that you could not like movies to me haha. They do have subtitles everywhere these days.
@@nondescriptbeing5944 Thank you for the explanation.
I have impaired peripheral and general vision so subtitles just leave me speed-reading at the bottom of the screen and missing everything else while they're on.
