True detective season 1 is one of the best things I've ever seen.
Does it get worse?
@@ThaMobstarr season 2 it s pretty bad but 3 is very good.Just watch 1 and 3.
Not worse but different actors and scenarios. . . Season 1 is based on a true story - look it up on youtube if you all want extra nightmares!!
Yep!
Where can i see this serial?
Awesome to hear about the actual work
Jehan broo... why don't you do videos now ? Used to binge watch your stuff man !
Don’t vote for the actor Texas! Keep the 2A strong! He WILL introduce BANS!
You videos are amazing
My takeaway: thoroughly flesh out the meaning that needs to be conveyed, so that you can embody it with the greatest depth
Funny, mine was Chinese
Ur trying to hard to sound smart bud
@@loganself6943 every guy with a checkmark who comments has a fancy way of speaking. I think it comes with the partnership.
@@loganself6943 what's your takeaway?
@@juststop022 and we have another smart guy whose drawing conclusions off zero factual evidence
I am not an actor, but really appreciate listening to an actor speak about the "craft" of acting. This was cool. Thank you.
Matthew 4:25 “Ask not what lines are written in the script, but what the scene is about. This giveth the actor all he needs"
Robert Downey Jr. playing Kirk Lazarus playing Sgt. Lincoln Osiris: "I don't read the script, the script reads me."
Love it lol
🤣🤣🤣
4:25
After doing theatre work for 3 years, I realized he just summed up my entire experience in 2 minutes. You're taught to approach and handle scenes in this exact way. Lines are nothing, it's what's in between them that you have to memorize. Once you learn to embody the truth to your man, the lines come naturally.
Because you are a natural
No matter what, You do need to know the lines to do the performance. But you need to convey true meaning and the reality of the scene. The truth. The lines or script is essential as a foundation which must be memorized to act. Forgetting lines is not going to work. After you,learn the lines they become less important and in the final analysis are not critical to success. It’s the truth and meaning you convey and the way you make it real. So the lines are important to build on. Memorize them for audition or you’ll fail for sure!
This is what he teaches at The University of Texas. Cheers to my fellow Texan!!🍻
Wait...he really teaches? Acting or?
@@bboyg1 yes.
@@jessequintanilla3389 Damn...could you inform me more, theater or acting for the camera?
@@bboyg1 look his class up un UT at Austin, he is a professor there.
@@luisdelpozo9674 I hate you..
Thank you for this Matthew. Please make more videos about the acting process. Really inspiring stuff.
Rust Cohle is by far the best acting performance i have ever seen
Agreed. Still my favorite movie character of all time! :)
@@GoogleUser000 Two Detectives was a series on Showtime
@don17525 and it was on HBO. I'm just trolling.
Exactly!
Couldnt agree more!
This is an acting legend. End of story. Nailed every piece of advice on the head.
As a student filmmaker, this is probally the best acting advice I’d ever heard.
I think even as a scriptwriter, a book author or a musician, you can benefit a lot from his words. It's a great approach for all kinds of different topics and creative processes.
Talent you own it
finally an actual actor who gives good advice
He is just like wine, only gets better with time.
This guy is probably the best actor not gonna lie
I love his performance in The Wolf of Wallstreet and Christopher Nolan's Interstellar. Mud is also very good!
Amazing actor.
It is not about being the best. It is all about being the best at what you do. Clearly, Matthew's got a gift.
Best of the new generation is Leo Di Caprio but Matthew is close
@@austriantruther4648 he’s amazing! Lincoln lawyer and Dazed and confused are my faves!
Ever since true detective hes been my fav
Best video description ever.
True Detective is one of the best examples of when incredible writing and amazing acting come together in the history of cinema...period.
One of my favorite actors of all time.
What makes you such a great actor is your ability to transform into the role, whoever you are portraying. It's when you forget that it's Matthew the famous actor, because they believe you are portraying the character. Not many can make you forget that. Matthew is the modern day Brando,in my humble opinion. Shout out to the great people of Texas, from your friends in Michigan !!!
A role he played in true detective,it was more like magic than acting to me,i love his character He's a master in his craft,i have mad Respect to this man,
Man.. watching you in true detective really put other crime tv shows two steps back..
The acting was on point my man..
Wish you all the best🍻
Matthew just seems so authentic and a real Christian as well. Someone to look up to.
Who care what religion he believes?
@@m00nunit69he, obviously.
Christians happen to care about the religion of the individual
@@m00nunit69 You care or you wouldn't have been triggered by them mentioning it. He mentioned church in the video so it was a small side note. Let others live.
I’ve always heard that it’s much like studying for school. You’re far better off not just memorizing the “info”, but learning how to apply it or talk about it. That way you can elaborate about it, if need be, and actually take it with you instead of just dumping it the second you’re done with it.
Hello to all the future actors you guys can do it!❤️🎉
thanks man!
Excited for the future!
Do all actors act?
working towards it🤝 thank you
Hi.it was nice of you to say that.i just got a small part in a movie. So thank you to all for the advise.thankyou mathew .you teuly are inspiring.thank you again for keeping it real.and your great acting.👍👍👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀😀😀😀🌺🌺🌺🌺💝
So thankful he’s sharing his professional knowledge. The art is more than just a gift for him.
Not only does this technique translate to acting 101 but it also translates to your day-to-day human behaviour as you handle yourself. Fantastic advice! 👌
Thanks Matthew. This will come in handy .
This is the best advice! The way we were taught in drama school follows the same philosophy. Instead of Rote-learning, understand what is actually happening in the scene and try and conceptualise it. Once you understand the scene, the lines will come to you naturally, so reading it over and over is definitely a much better approach, like Matthew says
I've studied 'acting' for years, classes, interviews, books, etc etc.....everyone their own take on what works for them.. I LOVE Mathews take, his process, his method. That's it. Look no further. There ya go. Thanks for this!
This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for.
When watching an actor ,I am taken aback at how you bring to life ,the story,draws me in ,brings me to tears and I have to remind myself it is a story,but when it is a true story,it changes my insight of experiences someone in real life goes through,thank you,for it makes me a better person ,for instance the poor soul who had aids and getting real help,your talent truly shined .They say a picture is worth a thousand words,true so a movie like a man struggling with a horrible illness ,and tries with his very life to help others ,that must be worth a million words, I believe it to be so,thank you .
I really love your characters in True Detective and Interstellar
Best shortest explanation ive seen so far. Its a worm hole of events. It depends how far down it i want to go. Sometimes i get lost in it, but maybe I'm supposed to
Thanks for the Texas Fundraiser, that was generous and helped so many... hope it happens again someday 🙏❤️
This is the best advice I've heard from all the actors who have given advice on RUclips. Thanks Dr. McConaughey!
Thank you for Rust Cohle!!! Once of the greatest characters. All Wright, all Wright, all Wright...
What a G. I could listen to this man talk all day. He's so wise and inspirational.
I honestly think his best work was recently in “the gentleman.” He fell into the character and the acting flowed really well.
I agree, he was excellent in that 👍👍
i just hope that there will be a sequel
@@kurtapyjamaa I'm almost certain there won't be
@@ambieorjames3639 🙁.... they could make one with the Russians taking revenge for that kid
Matthew was one of the best method actors in Hollywood.
Listen up. This man is a true genius of our age.
That was so interesting and great to listen to. Much better than hearing the answers to “who are you dating now” “what designer are you wearing tonight” or my worst one “what do you do and eat to stay so fit” yawn 🥱
Right?!? PREACH IT!!!
I like the actor
I like the man...
Hi,Thanks for being a good fan of mine, I acknowledge your comment. And keep supporting while I bring more entertainment to your way ❤
I’m an aspiring actor/director in Chicago and I hope you know you’re on the upper half of a long list of actors who’s knowledge, experience, honesty, and wisdom have stayed with me over the last 10+ years pursuing this passion. Through multiple forms of online media your “indirect” guidance has brought me mentally and spiritually closer to the work and your ethic reminds how it’s done! I appreciate you Matthew. God Bless 🤙
I really really love TRUE DETECTIVE. I believe it is his best work so far.
Objectives and obstacles. Literally acting 101. Whatever his method the results speak for themselves, I love his work, never showy or forced.
Honestly, I was expecting him to say, “That’s easy. First, you start by taking your shirt off….”
Hahaha Matt Damon
As I sit here watching The Dallas buyers club, I realised that you are one of the very few actors that have been good in every damn movie, as where some don’t come into their own until they have many years under their belts. You are one in a very few, hell yea
You should do a master class on acting Mr. McConaughey I’d love to learn from you
I think its kind of natural?
Pretty sure I've heard he does teach a class on acting
Matthew McConaughey is a professor at UT and teaches an acting class.
Yes like the ones with Helen Mirren, Samuel Jackson & Natalie Portman!
I think he just did
Man: you are unique. Intelligent, reflective and best: you are grounded! You still know where you come from. Greetings from germany
You’re very inspirational Matthew
The way he talks about character, that’s basically how you write one. How you write a scene.
I don’t know why I’m impressed I mean it’s obvious he knows this stuff but, the way he puts it it works for actors, and based on my experience it works for writers and directors too.
This is super cool! It reminds me of how music performers are always asked how they remember all those notes they're playing. And, interestingly, their reaction is exactly the same. The great performers don't think about the notes at all. They know the material so well that they can really make music instead of merely playing notes. Just like Mr. McConaughey can really act as opposed to just reciting lines.
Awesome stuff.
When it's real life experience it's not just talent it's true art and you are a Gem
A great method......not complicated and helps the actor feel the truth of a character to know what needs to be done while not worrying about memorizing the lines which will naturally happen thank you...Excellent!!
Hi Adorable One, Many thanks to you for being a good fan of mine, I acknowledge your comment . And keep supporting while I bring more entertainment to your way ❤
I feel exploring the lines in a different headspace,as he mentioned, will most definitely bring new light to a character. The character will come to life better in one of those moods and that’s when the words will flow.
Boy I am so glad you referenced your character Rustin Cohle in true detective, by the love of the artistic spirits, what a great stunning performance, I watched s1 of true detective about 10 times. So good, no, so great, and that performance really falls in line with what you say in the video, a true example of a character coming to life! I think that film hours is not quite enough for that to happen, especially complex characters like Rust are more suited for a "long movie" format. Blessings from Italy.
100%
whenever i feel really positive i watch Season 1 of True Detective, whenever i feel gloomy or sad for any reason or full of stress i watch it again up till now i have a watched season 1 for about 6 times. the acting along with my love for great story and with one of the BEST due on the screen to watch it brings me back to life again.
Who would ever thought that we would interact with actors from Hollywood .... Congrats from Florida !
you need to check other Hollywood's actors youtube channels too 😁 Jack Black has yt channel called Jablinski Games (it's not a mainly gaming channel).
Hello.and congrats from canada

YES this is the best thing money cant buy , real acting wisdom from someone at the top .
True Detective S1 proved he is one of the greatest actors to ever grace a TV screen.
@House Rules I know. The second season was a huge let down but to be fair nothing they could have wrote and no other actors could have topped S1.
@House Rules season 3 was still good imo. Season 2 was carried by Colin Farrell.
I have done various sketches and other actor performances in front of audiences on various occasions, and I have heard that I apparently seem to have great potential as an actor, and my "trick" is generally to simply truly feel like the character that I am playing, with real emotions and everything - basically, "method acting". This really adds a deep level of believable realism to everything.
Amazing Matthew you make it sound so easy.
What actors do is beyond my mind set. A very hard job made to look easy. This man understands his craft like no one else.
Matt should create a community art and acting school to keep kids away from negative actions!
Very intresting approach, can't be wrong. Thank you Mr McConaughey for sharing. The idea I used (in my very limited theater experience), is 1st read the text by reading in (seeing) in silence, then the 2nd time read it out loud (to hear it), 3rd write down (feel) some of the important lines you liked, then have someone read it with you and finally talk about it. That way, all the information end up in the same hub but go there conected with different wires. That, is another method to get that variety that Mr McConaughey is talking about.
Love that iconic actors like Will Smith and Matthew McConaughey, have adopted a new platform like RUclips to connect with a whole new generation. Wish Tom Cruise and Johnny Depp would join them so we can see a different side to them than the biased media depiction.
That scene with him and woody harrelson in true detective sitting at the bar is so good because hes honest with Marty about who he really is and shows he "keeps it real" no matter what...
You were amazing in True Detective, disappointed they rolled actors every season on that. You and Woody need to do another collab !
No joke, I bought 'green lights' on CD for my son's 10th bday. I had already bought the book on audible and hardback so I knew the stories. He now listens to it every night as he goes to bed. L I V I N. Peace and love.
Badass performance in The Gentlemen
True Detective season 1 is one of my favorite filmography pieces that I have watched. Everyone got their characters down so well, the direction was great, script, editing, coloring, cinematography all just works so well
I was just reading about some acting methods wow!
This guy is dope ..it’s a blessing for him to share with us knowledge about his craft...I love my people from Tx...!..👍
You have to feel the part, live the character, believe the perspective of your role.
You are my favorite actor, and your work in Dallas buyers club and true detective and interstellar is phenomenal!!!
Hey, if you want to "ACT" like a politician, then JOIN "The INDEPENDENT Party", we can cast you in the "Governors" role, and you can play the part of a PUBLIC SERVANT, ..... that actually does the role JUSTICE for ALL the People! 👍
Rust Cohle is such a frekin badass i absolutely love that character!
The question I want to know is: How do you make yourself cry so genuinely?
He makes every scene real. Such a unique perspective.
What I learnt as a self-taught actor:
From this video: Understand the context of the scene over memorizing lines first. This will make us understand why our character is saying this.
- The actions we do in daily life are dictated from 2 questions: "what do we want?" and "how will we get it? what action should we take to persuade them to give us what we want?". The easiest example is when you order food.
- When I write, I realize I interpret my words differently from the rest. Example, if you tell a person to stop eating because you want them to not overeat, the person can interpret this as an insult or an instruction.
Very generous man! I'm not an actor but I'm so impressed at how real and down to earth you are! It's amazing that you will take the time to share this kind of information on your channel! Thank you!
Hi adorable one, Many thanks for being a good fan of mine, I acknowledge your comment . And keep supporting while I bring more entertainment to your way ❤
@@officiallymcconaughey9200 Thank you Sir Matthew! Take care and stay safe .💙
@Sherry Lane you're very welcome and I think you're amazing too.. here is my contact in watsapp;+17159723781, you can send me a message, let's talk in private...💯❤
Reading the book right now, Matt. Actual printed book. Truly a work of an artist. When you start going through these pages, time is flying by unnoticed! Thank you for sharing your life story!
Good advice. Ive gathered that many actors want to find the best connection on all accounts. Whatever works best for them. For da audience, the writers, the story, character, etc...
If theres one thing Ive learned that can send people over seemingly impossible obstacles, its to truely enjoy what one is doing, to have passion... submerge yourself and put the rest aside or a moment..
The dark vs light speech in true detective is some of the best acting I’ve seen you do it’s a powerful speech between good and evil you and Willy are very underrated actors both in my top 10.
One of the best character actors going , there's nothing he can't do !! Soon as I saw A Time To Kill i knew he was going to be great !
That's cool, I like hearing actors talk about how they immerse themselves in a character. For example, no one comes to mind, but I've heard them explain how they'll totally believe and live as a particular character, months before shooting the movie ever begins.
This guy right here is amazing. Much respect Mr Matthew McConaughey.
Lived in Texas my whole life. I'm a god loving man. A family man. I love to hear you speak on the if you decide to run.
That’s pretty cool...that bit about reading the lines happy, sad, high, tired, mad....in essence, that repeated reading of the lines in a variety of mental states, makes it easier - more real - to “convey” the character to the audience in those moments that the script calls for, regardless of the emotion at that point. I’m not an actor, by any stretch, but I will tell you that as a retired law enforcement officer, we used to say when training, allow the “contact” (the public) to be the director, and respond according to his/her demeanor, which facilitates maintaining control. I know, it seems counter-intuitive.....but you’d be surprised how allowing the contact to swear, be angry, sad, excited, nervous (within reason)....gives a good law enforcement officer the cues he/she needs to maintain control....to “act appropriately” to the “director’s” cues. I found this short video incredibly insightful. Besides his genuine candor, McConhaughey is an outstanding actor!
I KNEW when he got out of those ‘rom coms’ his talent was going to just explode. He would be able to be all he is.
And it did! Gosh! I just love him!
Brilliant , that's how you get into character and part of the reason why I love to Act 🎭
Acting is a skill that we need in day to day life too.. thats why I'm here!! :)
That's a fact... that's all EVERY SCENE IS ABOUT "What do I want in this scene? How do I feel?" That's why he's so good👍🏽💯
Mathew mcconaugay is one the most inspiring person I've heard and seen on movies and speeches. Alright alright alright.
I just saw you in True Detective and holy shit. The two of your characters played off of each other, but Rust was the fuel to that story. The way in which you interpreted and acted his character out was stunning.
The fact I had like 8 hours of just pure Matthew Mcconaughey was a blessing. Do more TV!!!!
He’s a inspiration as an actor, and an inspiration as a human being.
Thank you, MM. Great advice, honest, real
Thank you Matthew for a thorough answer. I'm glad you've made a RUclips channel!
Every time there is a Matthew McConaughey movie out I have to watch it because the guy is a class act
Buzzed on Saturday....church on Sunday!!! Right on, right on, right on bro!!!!
If more of Hollywood was like you the world would be a better place. Bless you and your beautiful family.
Method acting 🎭 you are the best!!!
Hi Adorable One, Many thanks to you for being a good fan of mine, I acknowledge your comment . And keep supporting while I bring more entertainment to your way ❤
This is just about the best advice with regards to this question you could ever receive.
You deserved an emmy for true detective. Some of the best acting ever
