“You don’t know about real loss, ’cause it only occurs when you’ve loved something more than you love yourself.“
My favourite line
I doubt you've ever DARED to love anyone that much...
Powerful.
I've been thinking about that line a lot lately... 😕
maybe why i never felt sad when ppl around me dies.
The part of the movie that made me cry
Robin did this monologue in a single take. He sat down and delivered one of the greatest monologues in acting history in a single try. Let that sink in for a minute.
Maybe two takes or three. Those are the different camera angles in the scene.
@@fridun007you can film the same scene with more than camera… lol
You got a source for that?
Such a fantastic actor. As a man seen mostly as a comic, he played roles that sunk our hearts
@@fridun007 Idiot
This scene is why Robin won Best Supporting Actor and why Ben and Matt won Best Original Screenplay at the Oscars
A legend that will always have a place in my heart. Dude helped me through tough times without even knowing he has done so. And I have met him before. He is as genuine as he seems in this film. I was lucky enough to meet him once, I just wish that I had more time to actually talk to Robin. Dude was a national treasure, I dont think anyone with any common sense would ever argue with me on that.
Ich bin für Inhalt Aussage und nich bemessen auf dumme kritik und nominierung
And the it’s not your fault scene.
Imagine writing that screenplay and ending up shilling for crypto.
@@quantumastrologer5599 Cope.
One of the best scenes ever in cinema history.
Done in one take!
You're wrong. It's THEE best scene in cinema history. If you're not tearing up watching this, you're not human
@@deew187 💯🫂
@airgaming15 and the it's not your fault scene😇
Agreed!
“The terms visiting hours don’t apply to you. You don’t know about loss.”
That broke me.
Been there. Spent many late nights in the hospital when my dad had cancer.
Who ever wrote that is a freaking genius. It made me so sad.
That was me....
@@Bo_M Matt Damon or Ben Affleck most likely.
@@awild93 Yep, That's why they won the most original screenplay award for it.
"I ask you about games, but I bet you don't know what it's like being sucked into a board game, being fragmented into human dust particles, living in the jungle for 20 years. Your move champ."
“I ask you about the planets and the stars, and I bet you can quote me Carl Sagan but you don’t know the first thing about traveling through space in an egg.”
I ask you about 'Nam, you'll probably give me a whole political breakdown. But you've never sat there in front of a microphone and gone "goooooood morrrnning Vietnaaaaaaam"
🤣🤣🤣
‘I ask you about games, and you would probably tell me a few shooters you played as a kid. But you’ve never been iridescent on ranked okay call of duty’
Wow. No ranting. No tantrum. Just a masterclass in acting through voice and vocabulary that reminds us of how fortunate we were, to watch his work.
agreed. He wasn't crying or yelling or doing anything big but its still so impactful because of the micro expressions. One of the best actors to have ever done it.If not the best.
@Kjthelife I doubt that he was thinking about the micro expressions while recording this scene. It is all about Robin's gift of feeling. Of being there, of living the story and let his own soul suffer like his character did. When I look at him I see true pain, anguish, happiness, enthusiasm and those all can't be faked by micro expressions. You need to be willing to expose your soul to all those feelings and then let it speak about the experience. That's a true actor for me.
Sorry for the bad english btw.
@@pescaruraduvlad Yeah... You're absolutely right. And don't worry, your English is just fine
He was so rhythmic in his cadence. Almost speaking in parddiddles
@@tyd8064 What does that mean? 🤔
Arguably the best monologue in any movie ever
Seriously I never realized he was monologing until you said it. That's skill.
Robert Shaw's Jaws monologue is good.
Although i love this scene i disagree Al Pacino - Scent of A Woman is the best monologue in my opinion.
@@GideonFrost-rz9ji What about that Rutger Hauer one
@@PaulZedd Blade Runner?
Robin Williams is a gift to the world.
He was a tortured soul
@@user-rn3rn6nl3h absolutely. But underneath all that pain, there was something beautiful.
A gift for all that could never be replaced. He is one of the few that brings character, shows, films to a new level. One that nobody can match. Such an icon!
A gift tourtured and Beaten down....but underneath was still a Glimpse of The best Humanity could be.
He was truely UNIQUE
Yes he was. He was beautiful. No one knew what was true about who he was and why he truly passed. Hollywood sells an image.
You know a scene is truly moving and iconic when you can not have seen the rest of the movie, but can still emotionally feel the weight of it and understand where either character is coming from. Truly magnificent.
Well said
Please please please watch the movie it is so worth it
If you still haven’t watched the movie, I can’t recommend it enough
@@kumatorahaltmanndreemurr oh I’ve seen it many times lol, was just point it out.
@@laxmantc77 oh lmao XD
Robin Williams' performance is a given but Matt Damon performed excelent in this scene too. The passage of emotions from a cocky little brat to a terrified young boy is astonishing.
As someone from Boston, Ben affleck was excellent too
I’ve seen this film many times but not for a while now - I searched this scene today to show my partner how good Robin Williams was, but this is also what hit me this time around; Damon’s part is just as critical to the scene and he plays it flawlessly
So much acting with just his face alone, it's very impressive
When he can't even answer or look at him...the way his eyes move...they are both incredible in this scene.
I have seen this scene a dozen times and only ever focused on Robin. This is the first time I watched and only focused on Damon's character. All I can say is wow, you could feel the change in him when Robin was talking to him, all with no words.
the "visiting hours" quote never ceases to choke me up.
It hits harder when you find someone you love! Onions are always being cut when this scene plays…
If more therapists were willing to risk authentic, vulnerable connection like Robin's character here, there would be a lot less suffering in the world.
Thearapists examine disordered behaviour much like a zookeeper might examine the behaviour of animals I rarely meet ones that can empathise or enter on to my feelings most of the ones I have spoken to are just as cocky and arrogant as will hunting is in this film
@@ashleymacinnon9442 Well said.
@@ashleymacinnon9442They're trained to do that because of transference and the risk of influencing their patient in any way
You should watch Shrinking. That's basically the whole premise of the show.
As opposed to mere prescriptions certainly 😊
This is the difference between knowledge and wisdom.
"You're terrified of what you might say"
I love the camera angle of this scene, for the majority it is side on to Robin’s face; it gives the impression that you’re the person he is speaking to. Really personable and hard hitting, un-aging.
I went down to comments with intention to write the exact same thing lol.
I started crying when he talks about love, that part hit me hard for some reason
Eminem - Lose Yourself [HD]
Just imagine what this world would look like if we all just stopped in our tracks for a moment because it was imperative that we listen to another brother or sister going through suffering. If we all took turns to take care of each other when someone was depressed, or something else. My grandpa was a medicine man (we are Diné) and he told me a long time ago, this is how we used to take care of each other. But it's lost now. There some other cultures as well thst practiced this, I think it's where "moral therapy" originated. Either way, this world would be a truly connected world.
The quiet truth and beauty of this scene is truly staggering.
When I saw this scene the first time, I thought to myself so many of us live and settle for mediocre relationships. I still wonder if there is love as pure as the one described by Robyn Williams. I want that kind of love. This scene breaks me each time.
There is love so pure. My wife passed away not 15 months ago, and to have felt, and lost, that love as Robin Williams describes it, is beyond common understanding. To have someone in your life, that you would go through fire and flames for just to see them smile. And that smile would turn away the darkest skies and make the sun shine. Love so powerful, that it could make your day, if you saw them being happy. And who would even give you a smile, when their day was bad. Being each other's angels, and make the rest of the world "disappear", when you saw into their eyes. Don't give up on love, because it really is out there.
@Joachim Vorbech Christensen wow. Thank you for this. I didn't know that kind of love existed anymore. I am going through a breakup and I feel that my heart is broken in a million pieces because after 7 years together to find out that this person actually didn't love me and I was so blind by the love I felt for him I excused all his red flags because I wanted him to be my forever home. Thank you so much, I am now on the process of healing but your message is inspiring and I know I will find that kind of love.
This is how I feel about my grandmother who is my angel. She's 84 this year and at 45 I know im blessed to have her but I can't imagine the day I will lose her. Having someone who gets you, accepts you for you and doesn't judge you is the sweet spot of life
i had it and lost it, but thankful for the time i had it.
Theres no love anymore, it has been replaced by desire.
This scene is like a poem I return to from time to time
Rest in peace, Robin, such a gifted comedic actor who wasn't afraid to show off his dramatic chops either. He'll be forever missed. 😇💖
WOW! Every time I hear this speech, and I’ve watched this film quite a few times, I get chills. It is flawless. It is meaningful. And it is truly the best of Robin Williams!
Yaaaaaas!!! 🙌🏻
It's amazing that two buddies in their 20s wrote that
Robin was excellent in this, but it is not his best. In my opinion that was dead poet society.
Incredibly well written and acted scene.
Fun part is it wasn't written
@@timlungren5647it wasn't?
All Ad lib by Williams, and was filmed, one take.
merry holidays champion head
I can't tell you how many times I have watched this and listened to his words. When he talked about the smell in that room and looking up it gave me an idea. This summer I did what he talked about, I went to Rome and the Vatican City and I looked straight up and saw all of those paintings then I closed my eyes and smelled. In my life there is no Robin Williams to say what he said to Will but now, even if its just a small portion, I got closer to the man he is.
You my friend, felt it and lived it. I hope you are good and living and loving life

@@orionsbelt29What are you most grateful for looking back at this worldtrip?
@@FelipedeZwaan-sd1lr that I did a great thing, a thing most only dream of, and did not make an excuse not to
This scene is one of the best written in the history of cinema. YET, it was even better acted by Robin. I pity anyone who hasn’t seen this movie.
I was 18 in 1997 and only just finished watching it earlier today. Wow! 😯 🎆
Every person should see this person at least once on their life, so inspiring.
a powerful scene that shows the extraordinary difference between knowing something intellectually and truly understanding something and the courageous vulnerability it takes to bridge that gap.
This scene is obviously Robin's moment and clearly the scene that earned him his long overdue deserved Oscar. But, what Damon does toward the end of the monologue when Robin has cut through all his defenses to get to the heart of the matter arriving at this moment of truth heightened reality moment has always gripped me. Matt is doing very minimalist acting giving Robin all the space he needs to cook which he does and is, but then those precise specific moments where Damon maintains his poker face, but his side-eying begins here indicating to us the exact moment in time Robin's character had broken through Will's bullet proof armour and for the first time Will hopelessly attempting to maintain his facade, but desperately trying to read this unlikeliest of sage's face and mannerisms for some sort of hint or clue in how to deal with him, but literally left in a state of discombobulated confusion grasping for a way to process a meriad of emotions bombarding him not the least of which is he has no muscle memory of life experience to draw from in how to handle a situation where he inexplicably he has been outmatched, out played, out psyched by some one he now knows he respects, has hurt, totally misread, but completely has his number and calling him out point after point like some lightening round of This Is Your Life of the Damned. But, most of all, that worst creeping up feeling that all cynics and the jaded have to confront sooner or later if they're lucky: when someone does come along who suddenly does care, is a difference maker, the game changer, but all you know is pain and betrayal and putting up walls as a result so how do you relearn a lifetime of trauma to even begin to trust that gift of help or believe and let into your brutalized soul hope? Its all there in those frantic, darting eyes lost at sea flaling for a life preserver or what to do. Its revieting and a masterclass of minimist acting while giving your scene partner everything they need. These two made movie magic together. Matt got that opportunity. Ben had no scenes with Robin and never got to gave that chance. Nobody ever in the twenty five plus years has ever asked Ben that publicly and I've always wondered how he feels about that.
You can see the moment it stops becoming acting when robin Williams states the phrase " i see a cocky scared shitless kid" in his eyes! his eyelids drop maybe 1-3 centimeters and the light disappears, but you see the difference between intelligence vs experience! Amazing beautiful acting that shows the depth and honesty between existence itself. you can see the actors weren't just acting but in their own eyes and heart they understood it was so much deeper than what would be explained!
RIP to such a brilliant and talented man and a beautiful human being. His Oscar for this role was so well deserved. The depth of emotion he went into in these scenes with Matt Damon, were phenomenal. It’s not your fault…
Its not your fault
Robin shaped so much of my childhood and I miss him so much. But damn what an actor
This scene will forever speak to me. So many lessons in it. It teaches you about love and it teaches you about judging others. Despite how intelligent you are, or what your story is, how can you judge the human experience another has gone through by just looks or a brief interaction with them? Truly miss Robin Williams brilliance on the screen. I’ve never watched a pivotal moment in a movie and had it feel so real and make me evaluate how I treat others every times I see it. Love this movie
This is the perfect scene. Oh Captain, My Captain, we miss you!
We don't seem to have that kind of writing in movies or series anymore. But, then again, we don't seem to have those kinds of actors like Robin Williams in movies or series anymore.
May I try to change your mind? I recommend Mass (2021). It's mostly four people talking in an almost empty room. Nothing to carry the film except its excellent script (that, dare I say, rivals Good Will Huntings') and the actors' acting skills.
We didn't have this writing back then either... This is just exceptional and rarity regardless of era.
No wonder Robin Williams won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in this movie.
One of the greatest scenes in movie history 👏
Hands down one of the best movies ever made. The depth of human compassion is unmeasurable. I came from nothing. I saw this as a 10 year old boy. No real father figure mom on drugs, foster care, juvenile detention centers, etc. this movie helped me become the person I am. We miss your warm and smooth voice. RIP homie
Robin Williams was so amazing at playing heartbroken characters. He was fantastic in Patch Adams too.
When you love someone - you tell them the truth. Robin loved him (will) and talked to him straight in the one of the most iconic scenes of all time.
Watching this movie now on Netflix, it's been a few years since I last watched it. What a masterpiece.
This speech was supposedly on one take. No cuts or second attempts. Incredible scene.
Hard to think of a better monologue than this.. Robin was my favorite actor. RIP ❤️
"god put an angel on earth just for you.. " exactly how i feel about my wife.
R.I.P. Robin Williams. This scene alone made me appreciate his craft even more. At times, it still feels surreal. 💯❤️
As I have looked back on the many successes of Robin, I see someone as grounded and desirous of showing the human spirit. That is a very special talent that few bring to the screen. This monologue exemplifies the talent of Robin and his extraordinary work. It’s sad he’s gone, RHIP.
His passing is so sadly poetic. Pain is pain. Don’t underestimate others pain that can be hidden behind the biggest jokes or smiles.
We all yearn for a mentor like this. Even really hard case dysfunctional kids or criminals or whatever - everyone putting on a tough act and being destructive to themselves and others, just crying out for such a mentor. Unfortunately though, oftentimes even when confronted with such a mentor as Sean here, some people would be so damaged, they would be incapable of recognising the wisdom Sean is imparting and might even just interrupt him and say "F off". Some people get so lost they can't even hear wisdom being gifted to them.
Yep some people's egos are so big the ego won't let me say anything to jeopardize it's fragility and instead paralyzes the person until afterwards when they may be able to honestly reflect
It’s true. There are so many young men out there with absolutely no guidance. No rite of passage. No fatherly figures at all. And then we wonder why depression, suicide, drug abuse, and general mental illness are on the rise amongst young men. We need guys like Robin Williams’ character
Finest piece of acting in one scene ever!
It’s important in my life that I come back to this video every now and then. Feel like It’s good to humble myself and remember what really matters.
This movie had the best script and delivery of any movie that I've ever seen. Still touching after all these years.
One of best scenes of all time in movie history
This movie changed my life...made me decide to chose another option in life's journey and it has made all the difference...truly some Good Medicine!
This scene changed my life
I sure miss Robin. He could do it all...I was lucky enough to meet him once 32 years ago. He was truly a genuine person.
Put yourself in others shoes if you are Young or old and learn compassion. This is a powerful scene.
That resulting tensions when a perceptible gap arises between expectation and reality is when wonder starts. Very beautiful scriptwriting.
Brilliant writing and acting. RIP Robin. Hope you’re finally at peace
One of Robin William's finest performances. But I think Matt Damon was good too, seeing the change in him from defensive defiance to realizing the truth of what he was hearing, and the arrow hit home, and he was silent. But you can feel the intense emotion in the silence.
This is the type of speech that can turn a narcissist into the most humble human being
Exactly this!
I wish I could’ve been there to see Ben and Matt’s reaction to this genius bringing their words to life
It’s taken me about ten years to dedicate time to find this bench in Boston. Surreal moment to sit here and finally start the next leg of my journey ❤ Thank you Boston for everything.
I realise now the last time I watched this, was before my wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Watching it again now, brings a whole new meaning to what his words meant.
One of the best movies of all time and the ending is perfect. Our imagination is more entertaining than anything we could possibly ever get on film. 10/10
The writing perspective with Robins delivery was a brilliant spin on Matt's character.
I loved this man & I miss him every day. He was so good in this film, he turned a very predictable story into an unforgettable moment in cinema history. Robin Williams was remarkably without the ego that far too many " actors " have. And here, in a key moment, he is both therapist, & friend to a troubled kid . And in the process, Will begins to see Sean as someone he can & must, listen to, for once in his life. Legendary scene. -----MJL, 77 y/o
It's description of today's generation. They don't know what real love is. Some of them probably do, but majority is just all about themselves, ego , materialism. They'll leave loved one on the first obstacle. Does it even matter if it happens on first or 150th obstacle? Love is just what Robin explained here. It's only true when you love someone more than yourself.
Nothing in life is more valuable than unconditional , true love.
Never watched this movie until now. I had to pause after this scene and collect my bearings. That had to be the best delivery. Goosebumps ran through my body… what an actor. RIP Robin Williams
This really might be the most honest and great acting in a dramatic scene, ever. Robin Williams a true legend.
RIP Robin Williams. A truly wonderful person.
DAMN! THIS IS SUCH A GREAT SCENE FROM A FANTASTIC MOVIE!
This takes my breath away
This is truly a great performance from Robin Williams
Just finished watch Good Will hunting again to go down memorie lane when I watch this movie when I was 19 years old back in 97 and it still hits me emotionally and mentally especially when Will was crying in Seans arms in his office for a therapy session over Wills violent upbringing as a boy. Telling 6 times it's not his fault and then emotionally crys it hits me hard inside that Will needed that Male Role Model for guidance and inspiration for a better life. 💪❤ WILL POWER
I think that lesson of male bonding is so important. Hollywood tries to emulate it, but often falls short. Men are deeply emotional and those bonds they establish early in life make them the men they are. The importance of mentorship can’t be underestimated.
we all need someone like this in our life
And to think the man sitting next to him on that bench, the one he was talking to, was, at the time, a 27-year-old man who co-wrote that brilliant screenplay with his costar and friend. That said, there are certain monologues, especially those out of Robin's mouth, that are so heartfelt and brilliant, that they can make you think, "Was this in the script or is this coming from him?"
I keep playing this scene over and over again, because personally it's one of the most heart felt scenes in cinema. I can easily put myself in both characters shoes and relate. It's sad that we as people most of the time can't relate to one another on this level because of social stigmas. Considered weak if you open yourself to this level of vulnerability.
Hard to describe in words but in a few it would be if you truly care for someone you need to tell them the truth even if it hurts, we are human and only our mistakes can truly learn us. Then again the meaning seems to change with every rewatch and i think thats whats so beautiful about this scene and film, it feels like its already taught me so many lessons. God rest Robbie Williams you really put everything into this.
Or maybe it's the talk every father wishes they could have with thier son, before the son learns life is more complicated than advertised and nothing can ever go back to the way it was.
Every time I watch this, it still makes me cry
I still love you Robin. Thank you for your great work.
I’ve sat upright at the bedside of someone I loved and yes the hospital staff knew that the term ‘visiting hours’ didn’t apply to me. Blessed to have someone to love that hard ❤
I watched this movie for 1st time the other day. Someone said it was good & I knew nothing about it’s content/production/background etc. Honest to god, i was rendered speechless, in tears & completely blown away when this monologue came up.
I love RW anyway, but this showed what a truly gifted performer he was. Flawless at comedy (obvs) but my word he could do deep, serious & emotional to a special level when he needed to. Up there with the greats in my opinion. In fact just Googled it and he’s #16 on IMDb greatest actress ever list. Well deserved in my opinion. Miss him a lot
"It's alright". So subtle, yet to powerful
This always blows me away
It may not be true but i heard somewhere that this scene was a big part of why robin Williams chose to act in this movie, its almost like the whole film was written just for him and Matt, truly a classic movie.
Maybe my favorite monologue ever.
I was just sitting on that bench yesterday!
The tree to the left at the beginning has a few more bumps on it than it did in the movie.
Rest In Peace, Robin Williams. Miss you! 😇💜💚
Damn, I miss Robin Williams. He had such an endearing earnestness about him.
“Can we run it once more? I forgot to hit record”
Wisdom vs Intelligence
What a performance. I'm breathless. The phenomenal Robin Williams, ladies and gents.
The guilt conscience, the attempt to plant a Super Ego inside of Will's head. Robbin Williams tries to lay a sense of remorse on Will about being book smart and criticizing others unfairly with his intelligence. And how wrong he is with his high I.Q. and insincerity is ingenious. Will if I asked you about war you would quote Shakespeare,"Once more into the great breech my dear friends." And you've never been to war. But Will I don't claim to know about you. Your an orphan right? Do you think I would know the first thing about how hard your life has been just because I've read "Oliver Twist?" My point is this: the writers of this movie are brilliant. It's a Cliff Notes or Sparks Notes moment to explain and relate literature with real life portrayed in this scene. It's a real class act. Very touching part in the movie, that encourages literacy, I think. Oscar winning of course.
Every writer knows the rules. Show, don't tell. But this scene, this dialog, this acting and direction, it's great example of of showing by telling.
"Unless you want to talk about you, but you don't wanna do that, do you sport?"(I wish people were genuinely interested in me like that 😀)
‘Your move chief.’ You can hear the invisible mic drop.
I love how initially the camera just focuses on Sean and slowly spans to Will making us look at his expressions as well
I was happy once and didn't even realize it.. sadly in the times we live in we're always looking for some ideal we'll never attain.. take a look at your life and realize what you have because if you take it for granted long enough you'll lose it
3 minutes solid acting, no cut scenes. Incredible
That was the day I got to meet Robin Williams and shake his hand! I'll never forget that day for as long as I live.
One of the best movie scenes ever! If not the best. Miss you robin
