“Costner came out and hung out with the extras,” he said. “And Ben and I went and struck up a conversation with him. And he probably gave us five minutes. He was incredibly generous with his time.”, where they co-starred as Chesty Smith and Charlie Dillon, two anti-semitic bullies who target David Green , a Jewish classmate, at their prestigious prep school.Affleck and Damon established themselves as not just talent on the silver screen, but behind-the-scenes as well.
“We came up with this idea of the brilliant kid and his townie friends, where he was special and the government wanted to get their mitts on him,” Affleck said of the film during a 2013 interview withsensibility, where the kids from Boston were giving the NSA the slip all the time.” The film became a critically acclaimed darling, garnering the pair a Golden Globe award and an Oscar for Best Screenplay., a film that centers on the romantic woes of Holden McNeil, played by Affleck, who falls for Amy, a lesbian; Damon has a bit part as a business executive.
