The "Good Will Hunting" moment

So I recently went to see Rocketman (far more enjoyable than I thought it'd be by the way) and early on in the movie there's a scene where our hero, Young Elton John, sits at the piano while the radio plays. He starts intuitively playing the notes along with the music and his mother and grandmother drop everything they're doing to observe him in Awestruck Wondertm as he plonks out the melody. "See?! He's a genius!", the movie seems to scream at the audience.Then later on a now Adult Elton plays a impromptu piece on the piano for a record exec that turns out to be Candle in the Wind. "Did you just come up with that there?" He asks in Awestruck Wondertm. "Uhh yeah" Elton answers oblivious to the monumental genius he just displayed.I've noticed this particular moment in movies that I've come to see as the "Good Will Hunting" moment as in, you know, that scene where our Undiscovered Genius does something so exceptional and wondrous that the unexceptional plebs in the room gaze on in amazement and deference, while our hero genius remains unassuming and humble. "Who me?", he might ask, "But I'm just some schmuck from the wrong side of the tracks!"Another recent example is the movie Tolkien, a pretty run of the mill biopic that hilariously casts someone that looks so unlike the man himself that one wonders if they ever actually looked at pictures of him. Anyways there's one scene where Tolkien, in a moment of flashing brilliance, tells an impromptu random fairy story to his love interest in a restaurant. The movie makes it seem so important and her reaction to it is so enraptured that I half expected everyone in the room to stand up and applaud him once it was over. Of course something like this probably never happened and Tolkien was very reluctant about sharing his work.So after this amazing story is finished, his lady love gazes on silently in her best Awestruck Wondertm and the movie desperately screams at us: "See?! He's a genius!"Never mind the years of learning and honing the craft these people had to endure to be able to do what they do, these types of scenes seem to imply you're either are an Undiscovered Genius or you're a side character pleb and there's no in between. Anyways that's my rant. Anyone got any other examples? via /r/movies http://bit.ly/2IiYkhh
