INTERVIEW - Matthew McConaughey on the story at 'Dallas Buyers Club' UK film premiere at Curzon Cinema Mayfair on Januar

The transcript discusses a 1986 story of a heterosexual man diagnosed with HIV, given 30 days to live, who survives for 7 years by smuggling alternative drugs into the U.S. These drugs, though illegal, helped him and others live healthier lives. He started the Buyer's Club, a black market for these drugs. The narrative explores his character as a wild, anarchistic figure who inadvertently became a crusader for HIV patients. The conversation shifts to the film's critical acclaim and its potential for Oscars, with a brief mention of the speaker's excitement about being a nominee.
