If you have a chance, *please* see "Dallas Buyer's Club". Matthew McConaughey - who shed 40 pounds for the role - plays Ron Woodroof, a real-life, homophobic electrician who was diagnosed with HIV in 1985 and went on to become an advocate for AIDS patients, smuggling non-FDA approved medicine into Texas until his death of the disease in 1992. It is a powerful, emotional film, and Matthew McConaughey is superb. I can't give it enough praise.
