Good Will Hunting 1997
It’s a corny film but corny doesn’t necessarily equate to bad. I related a lot to this idea that knowing what the sigma symbol does in a maths equation makes you a genius to some but an idiot to others; I also found Affleck’s performance in particular such a painful realisation of that idea.
