That Caran d'Ache, the pencil company, takes its name from the Russian word for pencil. I did lots of drawing in high school and also took Russian, but somehow I never put the two words together before.

Skylar has inherited money under a will, but learns that what is truly important is human connection with a man named Will. The movie Good Will Hunting tells the journey of Skylar "hunting" her emotions about the "good" Will out from among the complex web of feelings she has around the "bad" will.
The sequel Good Will Hunting 2: aka Applesauce, Byiatch! did not receive a wide release.

The game's name, as well as the overall solitary and mysterious atmosphere of the island, was inspired by the book The Mysterious Island by Verne.[3]
