Say what you want about either of them, but when Matt Damon and Ben Affleck work together… it just works. I loved Dogma, and I loved Good Will Hunting even more. These two guys just have a fantastic knack for bringing the best out of each other and produce excellent product when they do.
So now the two are hooking up again. The good folks over at Guardian give us this:
Scripted by Chris Murphy, the as-yet-untitled drama is based on the experiences of Philadelphia lawyers Michael Banks and J Gordon Cooney, who toiled for 15 years to save a wrongly convicted murderer from death row.
I’m up for it. I’m one of the few guys who actually thinks that Affleck is an underrated actor. He’s got a lot of talent… but he just needs to lose the smugness and avoid comedies (unless he’s working with Kevin Smith).
