Elysium
Good Will Hunting
Matt Damon and Ben Affleck wrote a screenplay, starred in this movie, and won an Oscar for their writing. A classic movie about a working-class genius won out hearts for many reasons: it has that great Robin Williams performance, it made indie director Gus Van Sant famous, it features beautiful music and it makes everybody cry.

They even included a gay scene in one of the drafts as a test to see if anyone there was paying attention to their writing. Nobody said anything.
