Ouch.
There is a scene in Good Will Hunting when Matt Damon tells Minnie Driver that he doesn’t love her. She cries and screams and detests to his words, but he stands his ground and says that he does not love her. She feels sick to the stomach and she leans against the wall in agony. That scene is probably the most realistic hurt I’ve ever seen in fiction and I’ll never forget it. To hurt so much that you’ve been punched in the stomach is exactly how it is. She made me believe it.
