Jesse H I was floored at how great an actor he is when I saw this in the theater. I’d always found him a bit annoying and one dimensional throughout his career. He was beyond brilliant in this film and that Oscar was well deserved.
I personally think Leonardo DiCaprio got robbed for that award in the wolf of wall street. Yes Matthew mccaughenhey did a great job. But Leo did a better one.
At least we can take comfort knowing that Leo eventually did get his Oscar, even if the film he won for wasn’t his best performance (albeit a good one).
Tim Shufflebottom pretty much. The rodeo is very masculine. For real, hard nosed cowboys. In his eyes, the rodeo equals manliness. He’s saying he is manly. When you look at him, you’re looking at the rodeo, the epitome of manliness. He’s saying this because he believes his disease is only for gay men, which he does not consider manly
@@timshufflebottom828 I'm not sure but I think they somewhat hint at it towards the end, or maybe I'm just remembering stuff I've read about the actual guy. Haven't seen the movie in a while.

Matthew McConaughey is an undervalued actor. He's great. I've been a fan of his for a long time. He did get type cast in a lot of bullshit chick flick, romantic comedies but he's he real deal.
What are you smoking? He's been starring in critically acclaimed motion pictures for quite some time now. This consistency has literally been referred to as the Mcconaissance. And he chose to star in cheesy rom-coms with Kate Hudson. That wasn't a typecast. That was just an actor collecting an easy paycheque.
He nailed this movie. Nearly every scene hes in is like this. I dont really get into movies like this but his performance has made me rewatch the movie over and over
@Caleb Huskey ok I did. So it means 1000-1500 t cells per cubic millimetre of blood. So I was on the right track. Theres not only 1500 t cells in a human body haha
I was tested positive in 2002..Was for me that I was 20 and still virgin, never been under drugs dependent.. I have had 31 blood transfusion.. In early years of my life.. Because in 1986 was taken off my colon. In Paris..
Actually Easy E was given the virus, none of his women or kids had it, that's how he died so quickly, he was murdered, difficult to prove, but it's not rocket science, or brain surgery.
My biggest fear is a doctor giving me an estimation on my life. It would feel like the floor collapsed from under me if I was told out of the blue that I had a month to live.
It would be horrible but we could use the time to do the things we have been wanting to do but have been putting off, because we always thought we would have all the time in the world..
"Lemme give you a little news flash, there ain't nothin' out there that could kill fuckin' Ron Woodroof in 30 days.." and damn, he was right. One tough fucker he was.
Don't let this distract you from the fact that Hector is gonna be running 3 Honda Civic's with spoon engines. On top of that he just came into Harry's and ordered 3 t66 turbo's with NOS's and a Motec System Exhaust.
This scene made me dizzy and overheated when I watched it in the theatre and made me ask myself "Why did I decide to watch this film?". It's not because it's a bad scene, but because I'm often getting so uncomfortable when watching scenes that are related to hospitals or talk about symptoms to deadly illnesses. On the bright side, it just shows that the actors connect with the audience, so that's good
Just finished watching the Dallas Buyers Club Bestow my heart #MatthewMcConaughey The awards should be yours for years to come, you touched on the essence of the struggle within the person. We all have our death date and time and day, just as we had our birth date and time and day. This is all that is certain. Once we make peace with that do we begin to truly LIVE no matter the illness or obstacle or circumstance. Make Peace. God bless you and God bless everyone
I bought this movie for $3 and had it over a year before I watched it. I put it in for background noise when I was cleaning. 20 minutes later I was on the couch with a dust cloth in my hand and i didn't take my eyes off the screen for the next hour and 40 minutes. 😮 5Stars
I still need to see this. So so bad! I lived without any access to movies and internet during this time,off the grid but I am trying to make up for all the movies I still have not seen!!
When I was 19 a Doctor told me to get "My affairs in order". I thought they only said that in TV shows or Films, but that's what he said and I responded "I'm 19 apart from a car I don't own anything".. Thirty years later, still here, although there's quite a few who want me dead...
Everyone saying this is the most amazing body transformation for a role, forgets that Squidward Tentacles gained hundreds upon hundreds of pounds for his role in Spongebob - and then lost it all for the next episode. Most impressive of all is that he gained all the weight in his thighs, which he had to have surgically implanted because squid do not possess thighs. THAT, my friends, is dedication to your craft 💯💯💯
I can't believe that he starved himself for this role to look like he was dying... Very divoted actor love him!
Holli Boyd he didn't starve himself lol
+Piotr Rasputin Yes he did. Starving yourself does not specifically mean no eating.
Holli Boyd exactly ! He is awesome
He still looks better than me.

Definite* but yes.
Nobody was robbed of anything that year. The right performance won. I knew the moment I saw this movie he was gonna win.
I don't understand why he swears so much if he is a Christian? He thanked God for the Oscar but he is swearing like this?

Matthew McConaughey one of the best actors ever. He really put his life into this character, what dedicated actor

PokrPro21 what undervalued. He got millions of dollars, awards, and a gazillion fan base. How else you’re supposed to value him. Make him President?
He is seriously not undervalued, if anything he’s overvalued
^What they said.
I've always loved his dragon slayer character in Reign of Fire along with Christian Bale and a pre-300 Gerard Butler.

Reminds me of Eazy E's diagnosis in Straight Outta Compton
FBI is watching it feels like the exact same scene
Caliside except when Eazy E found out it was rather sad. This was funny.
Who?
*Easy E ?*
*Never heard of her.*
Actually Easy E was given the virus, none of his women or kids had it, that's how he died so quickly, he was murdered, difficult to prove, but it's not rocket science, or brain surgery.
One of if not the best acting by him. Bravo Matthew
Heads off to the doctor for being so patient and being able to maintain his professional manners

Imo this is Matt's greatest performance of his career. Great movie, I'm glad I watched it.
Me whenever I go to the doctors. Bless their hearts for putting up with me ❤️
if his tcell count is 9 that's Aids not Hiv. if it's below 200 that's Aids baby lol
Taylor Robinson "lol"
Booty flu
AIDS caused by HIV infection.
It's still HIV
AIDS is HIV. AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, brought by Human Immunodeficiency Virus.
AIDS is the terminal stage of HIV, stage 4.
If I was the doctor I would've had to try hard not to laugh because of his reaction.
Why would a doctor laugh at someone with (at the time) a terminal disease. That would not be professional.
If he’d done that Ron probably would have beat him into the floor…
it's a miracle that Ron lived that long after diagnose.
That man was an inspiration to never give up when the odds of winning minimal
Matthew is a great damn actor. He can play any character. Imagine him playing the Joker.
You must of mixed my blood with some daisy puller, cause that aint me. *LMAO*

Amazing movie and Matthew is one a hell good actor :-)
I still think interstellar was his best film that year but all incredible roles and films he made them
I wish I lived close to a clinic that could afford to retest lab results "several times".
Dude actually contracted the virus so he could look believable, such devotion is unparalleled
Lol, stop it.
The only regret I have about this movie is that I never watched it sooner
Mustache deserves an Oscar it’s?

This scene reminds me the scene from Straight outta Compton when Eazy E was told that he has HIV
The dialogue is so similar😂, I bet they took a look at this scene.
home run with the acting
Amazing acting.
This movie was much better than I expected.
Great film, Matty is a classic actor
"Rodeo is what you SEE"
This is almost identical to the scene where Eazy-E is diagnosed in Straight Outta Compton.
Loved his acting in this movie
one of the best movies ive ever seen matthew amazing acting such as jared leto
Great movie 100% Recomended
And ppl lamented about leo not Winning the award
That’s crazy, probably the worst feeling to have.
McConaughey just nails the way good ol' boys talk.
probably because he's texan
The text is 1:1 with Straight Outta Compton
You have to be truly dedicated and committed to your craft to intentionally do this to your body. Well deserved Oscar

He aint looked right since he did this film. This role must have took its toll on the guy. His eyes are stillsunk into his head to this day
He gotta sacrifice something for the Oscar
True
Good acting! Phenomenal actor.
I’ve never seen this movie. How did he contract the virus?
Your mother gave it to him. he got it from a girl in the hotel room who had tattoos
watch the movie
