Headstrong yet aimless, Will Hunting has a genius-level IQ but chooses to work as a janitor at MIT. When he secretly solves highly difficult graduate-level math problems, his talents are discovered by Professor Gerald Lambeau, who decides to help the misguided youth reach his potential. When Will is arrested for attacking a police officer, Professor Lambeau makes a deal to get leniency for him if he gets court-ordered therapy. Eventually, therapist Dr. Sean Maguire helps Will confront the demons that are holding him back.

Bon film avec un personnage charismatique et une histoire intéressante. De belles leçons de vie par le psychologue.
9.5/10 aunque es mi película favorita. Fácil la película en la que más pienso y más personal es para mí, no le pongo el 10 por lo que es la magnitud de las películas que les pongo esa nota.
