心靈捕手(Good Will Hunting)
It must be heartbreaking to be able to appreciate true genius and yet fall just short of it yourself. A man can spend his entire life studying to be a mathematician--and yet watch helplessly while a high school dropout, a janitor, scribbles down the answers to questions the professor is baffled by.
It's also heartbreaking when genius won't recognize itself, and that's the most baffling problem of all in ``Good Will Hunting,'' the smart, involving story of a working-class kid from Boston.
The film stars Matt Damon as a janitor at MIT who likes to party and hang around the old neighborhood and whose reading consists of downloading the contents of whole libraries into his photographic memory. Stellan Skarsgard (the husband in ``Breaking the Waves'') plays Lambeau, the professor, who offers a prize to any student who can solve a difficult problem. The next morning, the answer is written on a blackboard standing in the hall.
Who claims credit? None of the students does. A few days later, Lambeau catches Will Hunting (Damon) at the board and realizes he's the author--a natural mathematical genius who can intuitively see through the thorniest problems. Lambeau wants to help Will, to get him into school, maybe, or collaborate with him. But before that can take place, Will and some buddies are cruising the old neighborhood and beat up a guy. Will also hammers on the cops a little and is jailed.
He's a tough nut. He sees nothing wrong with spending his whole life hanging out with his friends, quaffing a few beers, holding down a blue-collar job. He sees romance in being an honest bricklayer, but none in being a professor of mathematics--maybe because bricklaying is work, and, for him, math isn't.
``Good Will Hunting'' is the story of how this kid's life edges toward self-destruction and how four people try to haul him back. One is Lambeau, who gets probation for Will with a promise that he'll find him help and counseling.
One is Sean McGuire (Robin Williams), Lambeau's college roommate, now a community college professor who has messed up his own life, but is a gifted counselor. One is Skylar (Minnie Driver), a British student at Harvard, who falls in love with Will and tries to help him. And one is Chuckie (Ben Affleck), Will's friend since childhood, who tells him: ``You're sitting on a winning lottery ticket. It would be an insult to us if you're still around here in 20 years.'' True, but Will doesn't see it that way. His reluctance to embrace the opportunity at MIT is based partly on class pride (it would be betraying his buddies and the old neighborhood) and partly on old psychic wounds. And it is only through breaking through to those scars and sharing some of his own that McGuire, the counselor, is able to help him. Robin Williams gives one of his best performances as McGuire, especially in a scene where he finally gets the kid to repeat, ``It's not my fault.'' ``Good Will Hunting'' perhaps found some of its inspiration in the lives of its makers. The movie was co-written by Damon and Affleck, who grew up in Boston, who are childhood friends, and who both took youthful natural talents and used them to find success as actors. It's tempting to find parallels between their lives and the characters--and tempting, too, to watch the scenes between Damon and Driver with the knowledge that they fell in love while making the movie.
The Will Hunting character is so much in the foreground that it's easy to miss a parallel relationship: Lambeau and McGuire also are old friends who have fought because of old angers and insecurities. In a sense, by bringing the troubled counselor and the troublesome janitor together, the professor helps to heal both of them.
The film has a good ear for the way these characters might really talk.
It was directed by Gus Van Sant (``Drugstore Cowboy,'' ``To Die For''), who sometimes seems to have perfect pitch when it comes to dialogue; look at the scene where Matt and Skylar break up and say hurtful things, and see how clear he makes it that Matt is pushing her away because he doesn't think he deserves her.
The outcome of the movie is fairly predictable; so is the whole story, really. It's the individual moments, not the payoff, that make it so effective.
``Good Will Hunting'' has been rather inexplicably compared to ``Rainman,'' although ``Rainman'' was about an autistic character who cannot and does not change, and ``Good Will Hunting'' is about a genius who can change, and grow, if he chooses to.
True, they can both do quick math in their heads. But Will Hunting is not an idiot savant or some kind of lovable curiosity; he's a smart man who knows he's smart but pulls back from challenges because he was beaten down once too often as a child.
Here is a character who has four friends who love and want to help him, and he's threatened by their help because it means abandoning all of his old, sick, dysfunctional defense mechanisms.
As Louis Armstrong once said, ``There's some folks, that, if they don't know, you can't tell 'em.'' This movie is about whether Will is one of those folks.
心靈捕手(Good Will Hunting)
The name of the movie is Good Will Hunting, it tells a story of a lonely intelligent young man releasing his encounters in the past; learning to be loved and love others; “hunting” for the correct direction of his life through the things he experienced and the people around him.
The movie started by the scene of numerous Mathematical books, it shows his first character, he loves reading and has an extensive knowledge in math. The next lens is his friends came to pick up him, the process is muted and both of them said no word, which indicates his silent and introverted personality. Then the following plots present the figures of a group of furious and offensive young men who always attend to fight. Above made a show of personalities and lay the background of the story.
There are four relationships in the movie: Will and his friends, Will and Skylar, Will and Sean, Lambeau and Sean.
Will and his friends
The first are his three friends, they talk to each other with dirty words; don?t have any ambition and work as labors or do some sanitary works because they were not well educated and civilized; hanging out together is the only fun. On the other hand, they got the closest and intimate relationship; they never allow others to insult any one in them. They are
the same kind of people perhaps because they all have unbeknown misfortunes in the past, they all passive, lonely, and afraid of hurt; they are so afraid of lonely so they like being together and passing in and out the chaos bar; they are so afraid to express themselves so they talk rudely; they are so afraid of hurts from others so they hurt others initiatively. There is a fragment which adequately shows their aloneness that one of them wants to drive farther road for lunch, but another young man said: “because you like the take-out girl in the canteen”. That means they have affections but they don?t express them directly like ordinary people. Will is same with them and also he is different from them. He talks few and sometimes he like taking the bus alone to avoid the noise of people and licking the pain himself, because the noise can only bring him away from the scar in his heart for a little while, being alone can make him feel safe and no one will see him through. And he also has his amazing intelligence on math unknown by others. The three guys are the whole relationship between him and the outside word before he met the people who would change his life. They are not good at expressing their feelings in words, they are rude and poor, but they will bring Will a car for his birthday present. This taught Will that there is a kind of wordless love called friendship.
Will and Skylar
Will meet Skylar in the university bar when he defended a young man
who was embarrassing his friend, as Will never talks to others initiatively, Skylar showed her interest to Will and stroke up a conversation with him. In the contact with Skylar, he found that Skylar was a beautiful, easygoing, humorous and passionate lovely girl and he fell in love with her quickly. Skylar noticed that Will is very special, she loves him and she tried to understand him better and wanted to help him. But love makes Will feel self- abased because he thought he was different from other normal people, and he doesn?t deserve the wonderful girl. He lied to Skylar that he has many brothers to disguise his loneliness because he was afraid she will dislike him if he has no sense of what is normal family love like other ordinary people. He don?t want to tell Skylar why he can?t go with her, because he thinks she will leave him if she know his past. So he drive Skylar away from him because he don?t want to see Skylar leave him, he think that may be less hurt for him; actually he had already hurt both himself and his love. When they talked on the phone, Skylar told him she loves him, he was grieved after they broke up and can?t find a way out. So he turns to his ?hunter? Sean.
Will and Sean
Sean is the key of ?hunting good Will?. Will was sent to Sean after several psychologists beaten back, Sean uses his own way to motivate Will to speak out, exposed the pain in his heart toward Will and shared his hurt with him, he told Will about his wife and their love story. He teaches Will
that if you love somebody, you love his shortcomings and defects, and accept his past, and he will never leave you no matter what you like. He led Will to dissolve the painful memory of the past and inspired Will that people should live without regret and encouraged Will to pursue Skylar back; they share their pain with each other and comfort each other, healed each other and become soul partner of each other, both of Sean and Will saved each other from the pain of the past and open their heart to embrace life in future.
Sean and Lambeau
They used to be old friend, but their relationship is not very good because they have the different outlook and pursuits. Sean likes living light-heartedly, he does just what he wants to do and he doesn?t care of fame or money. Lambeau attend to pursue fame and prestige, like to govern others and judge others at his own point. He doesn?t understand Sean, he thought just what he is doing can be called successful and Sean is doing something meaningless and unsuccessful. Will?s occurrence and refusal remind him that people who successful is just do what they what to do. Sean quarrel with him taught him that he is too ego and arrogant; Lambeau finally recognized his deficient and he made the gap up between he and Sean.
Some inspirations
There are too many lonely people in the world. All of them experienced some unpleasing encounters and can?t let them go. Everyone has his unchangeable past and sometimes there will be some unforgettable painful memory, people often tortured by the distressed things that had happened and constrained by the pain in subsequent life, if we want to live better life, we?d better let them go, because the world will never abandon you unless you are going to abandon yourself. Learn to enjoy loneliness when we live alone; try to heal the pain in your heart by yourself, because if there is no one can save you, you have to be able to save yourself; open your heart to the world all the time because what doesn?t kill you makes you stronger. The movie makes me think about love, it teaches me that the one really love you will love you no matter what you like ; it remind me that true friend is the most valuable wealth I have even if I have nothing; it makes me think about myself; who am I? What do I want to do? Who is my soul partner? I think am just a tiny dust of the immense universe; I want to realize my value to the people around me and find my soul partner; I will be my soul partner before I find another one.
引導(dǎo)語:《心靈捕手》是一部非常好看的影片,想必有很多人看過。那么看完之后,要怎樣寫一篇
心靈捕手的觀后感一
看了這部片子過后,每個(gè)人有很深的感觸。這種感觸隨著電影情節(jié)的發(fā)展而有所加強(qiáng)、有所加深。
首先,感觸于威爾驚人的天才能力。他能解出哈佛高材生們解不出的數(shù)學(xué)題,他能做出世界上只有兩個(gè)人會(huì)的難題,他甚至能只需三分鐘就解出教授數(shù)年來攻克不下的疑難。他熟悉各類書籍,讓哈佛的聰明小子自愧不如,讓心理醫(yī)生憤然離開。他燒掉自己輕易解出來的教授卻解不出來的答案,打擊教授的自信是他自己樹立自信的一種方式。然而呢他對(duì)于自己為什么不參加國家情報(bào)局的情報(bào)工作的解釋獨(dú)到而又有見地。然而那些所謂的正兒八經(jīng)在天才眼里,只是荒唐。
然后,感觸于天才的孤獨(dú),天才都是孤獨(dú)的,威爾也是。表面上一大堆朋友圍在身邊,熱熱鬧鬧;具有超人的能力又使他魅力四射,然而影片在這些東西后面呈現(xiàn)出來的是威爾緊閉的心。世界驚呼于他的天才,我們卻絲毫沒有看到他的內(nèi)心。直到心理教授西恩用他優(yōu)于威爾對(duì)真實(shí)生活經(jīng)歷的感受而開始捕獲他的心靈時(shí),威爾的心才開始慢慢打開。這時(shí),我看到的是他的寂寞,沒有人能夠真正了解真實(shí)的他,因?yàn)樗颖苤约?。由于他孤?dú),對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)有自己的看法但希望安于現(xiàn)世,與朋友們喝酒、干活、說臟話。他認(rèn)為勞動(dòng)是光榮的,特別是體力勞動(dòng)(我也這么認(rèn)為)。而威爾的所謂的自尊讓他拒絕了愛情,天才居然沒有愛的勇氣,他該是多么的孤僻,二十年來壓抑著自己、隱藏著自己。然后他能夠從書籍、從哲人那里獲得思想上的碰撞,但心靈卻沒有對(duì)話。他一直孤獨(dú)著。直至西恩引導(dǎo)他:“除非你自己想說……”。在一次又一次的沉默過后威爾終于開口了,心靈之門開始慢慢啟封。
另外,還感觸于這個(gè)心靈捕獲的過程。只因沒有理論、沒有實(shí)驗(yàn),只是西恩想跟威爾真誠的談話,而談話的時(shí)間過得越來越快。電影中的這一幕是如此感人,平時(shí)“冷血”的我深受感動(dòng),在不知不覺間已流了淚。在我心里,其他那些煽情、做作、花大力氣的劇情比不上這簡單而深刻的一幕。
當(dāng)威爾駕著朋友送的又丑又破的汽車朝女友所在的加州駛?cè)?,西恩接到威爾給他的信,他要去找一個(gè)女孩兒!西恩笑了,我們也笑了,讓一個(gè)孤僻了二十年的心靈康復(fù)了,并找到了自我。這一切是如此的完美。
所謂人生,不只是因?yàn)樾撵`經(jīng)歷了生命過程,人之所以人,是因?yàn)槿擞行撵`。
心靈捕手的觀后感二
人生無常,宇宙之遼闊,世間之無奇不有,人的內(nèi)心更是奧妙無窮。在現(xiàn)今的社會(huì)中,強(qiáng)大的`壓力,夢想與現(xiàn)實(shí)之間的巨大落差,總會(huì)讓我們心中郁郁而疾。
這部影片《心靈捕手》深入探索當(dāng)代人心里困惑及救贖突圍之路。在MIT工作的清潔工的男主角是哥之上超人的數(shù)學(xué)天才,他可以很成功地運(yùn)用自己的天賦完美的解出那些數(shù)學(xué)題。卻是一個(gè)麻省理工的教室外打掃衛(wèi)生的清潔工,他輕而易舉地解出了教授研究了2年的數(shù)學(xué)難題,貧寒的出生以及幼年遭遇形成他自己有著自我封閉的性情,可對(duì)于自己的生活確實(shí)一團(tuán)糟。教授發(fā)現(xiàn)了這個(gè)天才,欣喜萬分,希望把他培養(yǎng)成自己心目中的天才。雖然,威爾聰明絕頂,卻叛逆不羈,甚至到處打架滋事。因?yàn)樗靼祝淌趯?duì)他的關(guān)心,只是希望自己在數(shù)學(xué)上功成名就,殊不知,這樣的生活不是威爾想要的,心靈的創(chuàng)傷似乎不是那么簡單可以笑笑而過。
有一段話,他的最好的朋友查克,那個(gè)看似對(duì)生活不抱任何期望的人,在工地用盡可能不在乎的語氣說:“你是我的摯友,別誤會(huì)我的話。如果20年后你依然住在這里,還來我家看電視,還陪我做工地工作,我就會(huì)宰了你!我并非出言嚇你,而是言出必行!你有才華,我們誰都沒有,你不是欠了你自己,你是欠了我!明天醒來我即使50歲了,但我依然要做這個(gè)工作,那倒無所謂;你去兒有個(gè)黃金機(jī)會(huì)展所長,你沒膽量做去,簡直一派胡言,我若有你的才華,我什么也肯做,那群狐朋狗友也一樣,你再留在此地20年就是侮辱我們!然后每天我開著車到你家門姐你,我們出去喝酒談心,的卻很開心,可知我每天最渴望哪段時(shí)刻嗎?就是我下車走向你家那十秒,因?yàn)榭释仪瞄T時(shí)你已經(jīng)離家遠(yuǎn)去,連一聲道別也沒有就離開,我所知不多單我知道我有過這種想法。”細(xì)節(jié)的流露,朋友希望自己過得比自己好。也許有一就是那么偉大,沒有私欲,沒有嫉妒,有的只是那顆上刀山,下火海的赤誠之心。朋友也是心靈的伴侶!劇情的推動(dòng),解救威爾的關(guān)鍵人物付出畫面——西恩。
他是教授的大學(xué)好友,開始為威爾治療,幫助他正面面對(duì)自己的千瘡百孔的人生。因?yàn)橥杻?nèi)心弱小無助與外表的桀驁不馴恃才傲物,對(duì)親密關(guān)系的恐懼VS提前拒絕所有的幫助和親密,不敢面對(duì)女友的感情……在西恩的敏銳的洞察,真誠的關(guān)心下,開始慢慢的解凍,似乎西恩是他的春天,給他的生命帶來了生機(jī)。在最后一次的輔導(dǎo)中,用同一句話“這不是你的錯(cuò)”,反復(fù)追問威爾,威爾在西恩的逼問下,由無所謂到認(rèn)真對(duì)待,到惱怒,到痛哭流涕,到與西恩緊緊擁抱。威爾在經(jīng)歷一系列的心理感受后,終于充分理解到自己的過去經(jīng)歷不是自己的錯(cuò),沒有必要一直背負(fù)著這個(gè)包袱而不肯真實(shí)面對(duì)生活,一直拿別人的錯(cuò)誤來懲罰自己,一直用糟蹋自己的才華與別人的真摯感情來逃避人生,他認(rèn)清楚了自己,找到了追求的目標(biāo)。我們都是有缺陷的人,但我們能夠足夠快樂的自由選擇自己的生活。讓自己的生活得有滋有味,而不是被陰影控制著來進(jìn)行自己那種需要完善而不承認(rèn)自己任何缺陷的生活。
心靈捕手的觀后感三
奔走在這個(gè)世界上的每個(gè)人都象一棵樹獨(dú)自站立,又和許多樹心手相連構(gòu)成一片片森林,不管多么強(qiáng)大和樂觀的人,面對(duì)著愛與信任、理想與現(xiàn)實(shí)、堅(jiān)持與放棄這些問題時(shí)都會(huì)有不同程度上的困惑,心靈的城池上飄著陰影。有些人走過這段旅程,清風(fēng)淡月,一步步走進(jìn)了人生的佳境,有些人沒能趟過這條河流,擱淺在了青春的中途?!缎撵`捕手》就是一部描寫青年人走過青春陰霾,解除封閉自守,釋放心靈的感人片子。
本片的主人公威爾是一名很普通的清潔工,雖然他沒有接受過高等教育,但是對(duì)數(shù)學(xué)卻具備與生俱來的天分,再加上他的勤奮與刻苦,使得他在數(shù)學(xué)領(lǐng)域表現(xiàn)出超凡的能力。但是由于他小時(shí)候被繼父虐待,在心中留下了深深的創(chuàng)傷與自卑,所以在他與人交往的時(shí)候處處表現(xiàn)出敏感和戒備,同時(shí)他努力想要證實(shí)自己的價(jià)值,努力想讓別人讓社會(huì)接納他,承認(rèn)他,但是卻又因?yàn)樯钋械淖员笆沟盟麩o法坦然的去面對(duì)身邊的一切。造成了他狂傲卻又懦弱,敏感而又自甘墮落的復(fù)雜性格。影片的開頭部分以具體的一些事件向我們展示了威爾的復(fù)雜性格。但是他的數(shù)學(xué)才能還是被麻省理工學(xué)院的數(shù)學(xué)教授林保發(fā)現(xiàn)了,因此才有了該影片中最精彩的部分——林保請心理學(xué)家為威爾作心理輔導(dǎo)。
林保教授用了很多方法能希望他能打開心結(jié),再走進(jìn)他的內(nèi)心,但是之前許多被教授請來為威爾做心理咨詢的心理學(xué)家,都被這個(gè)有著驚人的高智商的小子洞悉心理而反遭羞辱,紛紛宣告威爾已“無藥可救”。教授在無計(jì)可施的情況下,只好求助他的大學(xué)同學(xué)及好友肖恩,希望他來開導(dǎo)這個(gè)異常聰明而又固執(zhí)倔強(qiáng)的年輕人。肖恩同樣是位“性情古怪”深居簡出的教授,和威爾一樣飽受心底深處黑色陰影的困擾,在一番斗志斗勇之后,兩人終于惺惺相惜,慢慢融化了冰封的心,成了忘年之交。
肖恩一共給威爾輔導(dǎo)了八次,每次都是使人難忘。
其間第一個(gè)場景,是一個(gè)小時(shí)的沉默。最終威爾首先說話了,兩個(gè)人打破了沉寂。肖恩說出了妻子的缺點(diǎn),但即便這樣她仍然是自己的妻子,兩個(gè)人在一起就要兼容對(duì)方的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn),并以此激勵(lì)威爾的信心與勇氣。接著,肖恩說出威爾自身也并不十全十美,讓威爾相信沒有人完美。如果我們發(fā)現(xiàn)自身的缺陷又不敢承認(rèn),就容易造成問題。當(dāng)威爾對(duì)肖恩產(chǎn)生興趣而反復(fù)提問時(shí),肖恩嘎然而止,指出時(shí)間到了。好一招欲擒故縱!
而在最后一次咨詢中,影片向我們講述這個(gè)故事的更深層次內(nèi)容:人應(yīng)該正確認(rèn)識(shí)和面對(duì)自己的過去。在他內(nèi)心卻第一次開始回憶過去受繼父虐待時(shí)的情景,肖恩準(zhǔn)確把握了威爾這一情感上的變化,一連十幾句:“It’s not your fault”,肖恩使得威爾的情緒由平靜到激動(dòng)到憤怒到流淚,最終伏在肖恩肩頭痛哭出來,將影片推至高潮。至此,肖恩成功的打開了威爾的心結(jié),使威爾認(rèn)清了自己,看到了自己的優(yōu)缺點(diǎn),并能夠正視自己的過去和未來。
整個(gè)咨詢過程是一個(gè)曲折而又艱辛的過程,但是經(jīng)歷了種種的波折,肖恩就像一個(gè)機(jī)敏而富有智慧的獵手一樣,在桀驁不遜的威爾面前,通過自己的真誠和嫻熟的心理咨詢技術(shù)打開了威爾的心扉,捕捉到了威爾的心靈,找到了威爾的心理問題的癥結(jié)所在,幫助這個(gè)富有才華的年青人重新找到了屬于自己的生活,使他把所遭遇的困境和痛苦拋諸腦后,重新打開心胸?fù)肀?/p>
觀此影片后,我百感交集。我相信,很多人在小孩時(shí)都曾受到過家長不同程度的語言或者身體上的教訓(xùn),我也不例外。但是每次與父母爭吵之后,自己都會(huì)想想自己究竟有哪些不對(duì)的地方,并暗下決心下次一定要做好。有時(shí)候自己會(huì)想,究竟為什么活著,究竟意義何在?人的一生,是否就應(yīng)現(xiàn)實(shí)地隨波逐流,圓滑世故的投身于社會(huì),不擇手段地去追求名利雙收,吃好、穿好、住好、玩好?究竟什么樣才算是幸福快樂的生活?生活的本質(zhì)是什么?這些問題以前就曾經(jīng)與父母交流過,但是我覺得還是需要自己找到適合自己的發(fā)展方向。人活著就是要充分發(fā)揮自己的個(gè)人價(jià)值,快活自在地享受生活,而不是被生活所奴役。能讓自己生活得充實(shí)快活,那才是最美好的生活和最有意義的人生,這樣也才能使替你著想,為你擔(dān)心的人幸福與快樂。當(dāng)著也是最簡單充實(shí)的生活方式。
我一直都相信家庭是很好的避風(fēng)港。當(dāng)我剛剛離開家,步入大學(xué)殿堂的時(shí)候,心想著終于擺脫了束縛,終于可以給自己一個(gè)完全自由的空間。但是情況并非如此簡單,其間感受到了一些挫折,比如
人的一生不可能是一帆風(fēng)順的,在生活總是會(huì)不經(jīng)意地遇到大大小小的暗礁,要怎樣如何去避開或者碰到后如何去修復(fù)才是最重要的,這樣我們才能夠繼續(xù)遠(yuǎn)行。正所謂心病還需心藥醫(yī),我們應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)怎樣去卸下心靈的枷鎖,去正視我們的過去,正視我們的生活,正視我們的未來,還要使自己保持健康、快樂的心態(tài)。這也許就是該片最想展獻(xiàn)給我們的一個(gè)深刻內(nèi)涵吧。
As Louis Armstrong once said, ``There's some folks, that, if they don't know, you can't tell 'em.'' This movie is about whether Will is one of those folks.
心靈捕手(Good Will Hunting)
The name of the movie is Good Will Hunting, it tells a story of a lonely intelligent young man releasing his encounters in the past; learning to be loved and love others; “hunting” for the correct direction of his life through the things he experienced and the people around him.
The movie started by the scene of numerous Mathematical books, it shows his first character, he loves reading and has an extensive knowledge in math. The next lens is his friends came to pick up him, the process is muted and both of them said no word, which indicates his silent and introverted personality. Then the following plots present the figures of a group of furious and offensive young men who always attend to fight. Above made a show of personalities and lay the background of the story.
There are four relationships in the movie: Will and his friends, Will and Skylar, Will and Sean, Lambeau and Sean.
Will and his friends
The first are his three friends, they talk to each other with dirty words; don?t have any ambition and work as labors or do some sanitary works because they were not well educated and civilized; hanging out together is the only fun. On the other hand, they got the closest and intimate relationship; they never allow others to insult any one in them. They are
the same kind of people perhaps because they all have unbeknown misfortunes in the past, they all passive, lonely, and afraid of hurt; they are so afraid of lonely so they like being together and passing in and out the chaos bar; they are so afraid to express themselves so they talk rudely; they are so afraid of hurts from others so they hurt others initiatively. There is a fragment which adequately shows their aloneness that one of them wants to drive farther road for lunch, but another young man said: “because you like the take-out girl in the canteen”. That means they have affections but they don?t express them directly like ordinary people. Will is same with them and also he is different from them. He talks few and sometimes he like taking the bus alone to avoid the noise of people and licking the pain himself, because the noise can only bring him away from the scar in his heart for a little while, being alone can make him feel safe and no one will see him through. And he also has his amazing intelligence on math unknown by others. The three guys are the whole relationship between him and the outside word before he met the people who would change his life. They are not good at expressing their feelings in words, they are rude and poor, but they will bring Will a car for his birthday present. This taught Will that there is a kind of wordless love called friendship.
Will and Skylar
Will meet Skylar in the university bar when he defended a young man
who was embarrassing his friend, as Will never talks to others initiatively, Skylar showed her interest to Will and stroke up a conversation with him. In the contact with Skylar, he found that Skylar was a beautiful, easygoing, humorous and passionate lovely girl and he fell in love with her quickly. Skylar noticed that Will is very special, she loves him and she tried to understand him better and wanted to help him. But love makes Will feel self- abased because he thought he was different from other normal people, and he doesn?t deserve the wonderful girl. He lied to Skylar that he has many brothers to disguise his loneliness because he was afraid she will dislike him if he has no sense of what is normal family love like other ordinary people. He don?t want to tell Skylar why he can?t go with her, because he thinks she will leave him if she know his past. So he drive Skylar away from him because he don?t want to see Skylar leave him, he think that may be less hurt for him; actually he had already hurt both himself and his love. When they talked on the phone, Skylar told him she loves him, he was grieved after they broke up and can?t find a way out. So he turns to his ?hunter? Sean.
Will and Sean
Sean is the key of ?hunting good Will?. Will was sent to Sean after several psychologists beaten back, Sean uses his own way to motivate Will to speak out, exposed the pain in his heart toward Will and shared his hurt with him, he told Will about his wife and their love story. He teaches Will
that if you love somebody, you love his shortcomings and defects, and accept his past, and he will never leave you no matter what you like. He led Will to dissolve the painful memory of the past and inspired Will that people should live without regret and encouraged Will to pursue Skylar back; they share their pain with each other and comfort each other, healed each other and become soul partner of each other, both of Sean and Will saved each other from the pain of the past and open their heart to embrace life in future.
