“Matt & Ben” Delivers a Twisted, Self-Aware Satire of White Male Privilege
The plot takes place in Ben Affleck’s apartment as he (Alejandra Villanueva) is trying to do a screen adaptation of J.D. Salinger’s classic novel, The Catcher in the Rye. Matt (Maya Sofia Enciso) wants to help his best friend, but has other priorities like an important callback. In between silly exchanges and pizza eating, the script for Good Will Hunting falls from the ceiling. After they read it and see its golden potential, they get excited and decide to produce it. But what about the casting? Who is going to play Will Hunting?
