From the Paper:

" Throughout the movie, social issues were brought forth. The most obvious social issue was poverty. As stated above, Will lives in South Boston in a one-room apartment. It is a very dirty and dingy place with an old stove and furnace, a mattress on the floor for a bed and a few chairs. He works from job to job. His only mode of transportation is the train and his best friend, Chucky? car when he picks Will up for work at a construction site. Another social issue is intragenerational mobility. With Will's god-given talents, he has the ability to go from the bottom rung to the top level whenever he pleases, with the help Professor Lambeau and his connections with people in high places. The movie gives Will four close relationships. Two are his relationships with Sean and Professor Lambeau. They are both, in sense father figures."
