Those things you don't see

Rating: Null/10 (27 February 2014)

Dallas 1985. Ron Woodroof is a heavy smoking, drinking, coke head, casual sex having kind of guy. He is a stereotypical cowboy redneck: racist and homophobic. Not at all the man you'd want to cheer for, while in the hospital on a work related injury, the doctors discover and inform him that he is HIV+, and that he will most-likely die within thirty days. That said, watching Matthew McConaughey's portrayal of an HIV+ man who won't let himself quit, was a different ad amazing experience for me. Survival is his only choice. His remarkable portrayal with natural cadence of speech and emaciated condition really sales the man you want to like. It's a good look back at what it was like to deal A.I.D.S. in the eighties. Jared Leto's performance in this movie signals that a five year absence was well worth the wait. It almost makes you want to cryif I could, Iwould have. Leto sold his character. He was the heart behind McConaughey success in the film. Not my at all the type of film I would watch, but it was an experience worth the trip for me.
