Well, Matt Damon doesn't ring all the bells for me that he does for you; what I've got is grudging respect. When I saw "Courage Under Fire", long before I'd ever heard of MD, there was this kid, who obviously had something going on that wasn't being said in the script. Yes, he was intriguing.

You should see "The Talented Mr. Ripley", in fact, I may see again, now that you mention it.
