“Affleck: We were so frustrated that Castle Rock wasn’t reading the script, so we felt like we had to develop this test. We started writing in screen direction like, ‘Sean talks to Will and unloads his conscience.’ And then: ‘Will takes a moment and then gives Sean a soulful look and leans in and starts blowing him.’ “Damon: They weren’t reading the script closely anymore. It was literally probably a full paragraph about what these two characters were doing to each other. “Affleck: We would turn that in, and they wouldn’t ever mention all those scenes where Sean and Will were jerking each other off.” https://www.bostonmagazine.com/arts-entertainment/2013/01/02/good-will-hunting-oral-history/
