Matthew McConaughey
Christopher Nolan has made a solid place for himself in the rank of modern filmmakers. His latest film, Interstellar, further establishes his stance. It is a wondrously beautiful movie, with intense sci-fi sequences, a solid and talented cast, and even some thought-provoking ideas.
As I type this, Matthew McConaughey is the most in-demand actor in the world. The recent “McConaissance”, as this wonderful era will now and forever be known, has turned the once maligned rom-com regular’s reputation on its head and tapped into exactly what critics and audiences around the world want to see. So when Hollywood’s “it guy” says that television is the best way to create modern, character-driven stories, an alarm is set off.
Dallas Buyers Club isn’t just a story about a dude in the 1980’s that got AIDS and built a drugs emporium – it’s much more than that.
