Oscar Week Flashback (1997):  Little known Ben Affleck and Matt Damon wrote Good Will Hunting and shopped it around Hollywood studies, but nobody wanted it.  So they went to their old buddy Kevin Smith for help.  He was able to convince Miramax to do the movie.  Then Affleck and Damon begged Smith to direct the feature, but he declined, stating that it needed to be a “good director”.  So the studio secured Gus Van Sant and rest is history.
