This can't be happening to me
Ron Woodroof is a hard living heterosexual Texan who unwittingly contracts AIDS. Upon finding out that he has the virus, he is told that he has 30 days to live. Among his friends and neighbors, becomes an outcast. Set in the mid 1980s during when AIDS was considered a homosexual disease, the story shows how far a man will go to keep living as well as how much a person can change. The strengths of this film are many, but the story (based on the real life Ron Woodroof) and the acting (stellar perfromances by McConaughey and Leto) are what make this film great. Can anyone say Oscar?
