Matthew McConaughey’s Top 10 Rules For Success (@McConaughey)


– The actual making of a film,

the day to day going to work, the construction of a film,

has always been my favorite thing.

I’m going to go stand in the mirror,

and my wife’s over there watching, reading something,

I’m going to stand in the mirror

and I’m going to practice a move.

This is really embarrassing.

Well, too bad, man.

Do it in the mirror right now.

The $320, I was like, “Is this legal?”

‘Cause it was so much fun and I was,

(laughs)

I was really looking over my shoulder going.

(laughs)

Being an actor, or even being an artist, and I had studied

in school behind the camera, was not even in the vernacular

of my dreams.

– He’s an Academy Award winning American actor.

He achieved critical success for portraying a cowboy

who was diagnosed with AIDS in the Dallas Buyers Club movie.

He also starred in HBO’s first season of True Detective,

for which he earned an Emmy nomination.

He’s Matthew McConaughey and here’s my take on his

top 10 rules for success.

Number one is my personal favorite, and make sure to

stick around all the way to end for some

special bonus clips.

Also, as you’re watching and listening, if Matthew says

something that you really enjoy, make sure to leave

it in the comments below with quotation marks,

so we know what you really enjoy.

(air rushes)

(thuds)

– The making, the actual making of a film, the day to day

going to work, the construction of the film

has always been my favorite thing.

I like making a film much more than I like watching them.

I do. Even the one’s I’m in.

I really love the coming together with a whole bunch of

people having an idea on paper, and everyone’s an

expert at what they do and you’re off on this turn

and you got ideas but then you just let them go

and see what it can become.

I love the making, that’s when I’m happiest,

is when I’m making a film or telling a story,

the day to day.

And more so than watching them, really.

Look, I kind of defined that for myself

about four years ago.

Process. Stay in process. Head down, in process.

Stay in your bubble and when it’s over,

be that fulfillment.

Notice, when I started noticing that fulfillment of it,

I just finished, well that’s enough, that’s it.

I don’t know if it’s even coming out, I don’t even know,

I don’t know what it’s going to turn into.

Man I hope we got it.

And, I hope the director put something good together,

but I don’t know.

Nothing I can do about that.

All I know is that this experience, that I said,

go have the experience, McConaughey.

And, if I can love this experience and at the end of it,

I’m like may never even hear that film again.

May never even know that story again, it may be gone.

Let me find out that all the negatives got fried

in the x-ray machine, there is no film, but I’ve got to be,

(laughs)

that’s okay, I had an experience.

When I got selfish for that, for that,

the experience, that process, enjoying that process,

the day to day architecture of making a movie

and creating a role.

That’s when I’ve been the happiest.

And more results have come that way, in an odd way.

– Yes. – You know?

But, when I started to really approaching them

as this is a finite thing and this is just an experience,

other than that I’m not producing this thing.

I’m not the one editing, I don’t know what

it’s going to be, that’s it.

And then, all of a sudden they come out and you go,

oh, I think we got a good one.

– [Interviewer] So, are you surprised by the places you went

in that performance?

Are you surprised when you see it back

or are you already–

– No, not after I engaged, not after I took the dare.

Soon as I got off the phone call with him and then also when

he said it’s not in the picture now, but I

think it’d be great if Dallas danced at the end.

And my heartbeat went up on the phone and I started

breaking a cold sweat like, like going no that’s not.

And, as soon as I went oh no that’s not,

the other devil in my ear said I (bleep) dare you do,

and I just went of course.

Yes, because I immediately noticed, if you don’t

you’re wussing out dude, are you kidding me?

You will forever regret, you have to.

So, as soon as I got over that, I was like well

that’s inevitable, I’m doing it.

Now, I got to bust my ass to go do it the best I can.

And, there was a lot of fear in that.

I mean, that was

some majorly good anxiety and fear.

And then, now I’m saying, and by that time,

now everything, my choices from that phone call onward

anything I was ever set you have to go (bleep).

Nah dude, go, all the way.

Go, meet midnight, yes.

Can you all meet in front of the choreograph session?

Eight a.m. Sunday morning, do you got an hour?

I’m going to go stand in the mirror and my wife’s over there

reading something, I’m going to stand in the mirror,

I’m going to practice a move.

This is really embarrassing.

Well, too bad man, do it in the mirror right now

because the less embarrassing that gets

hopefully the more comfortable you’ll be

when you’re out there in front of 80 people

and a bunch of cameras.

And, one thing you do when you go out there,

don’t come up short.

(laughs)

Go, all the way.

– So, even with these movies under your belt

you came out to L.A. and you were still thinking

it was going to be for P.A. work.

– Still thought it was going to be P.A. work.

I mean, I didn’t know, it was still,

I was the leading (mumbles), I mean, I sure did like

that I was doing it and I had people and I couldn’t,

honestly at that time the $320.

I was like is this legal?

‘Cause it was so much fun.

And then, I was

(laughs)

I was really looking over my shoulder going.

(laughs)

And, I kept getting invited back.

And then, I had people coming up and going, “Hey man,

“You’re good at this.”

And, I was like, “Well thanks, ’cause it sure is fun.”

So, I really didn’t know.

I guess secretly, if I look back at it

and I look at my diaries there was hope underlying,

but I always feel like I need to go out and get a job.

And, if I can pursue acting on the side,

get a P.A. job, get in the storytelling business

behind the camera and let’s see.

Then, another funny thing happened.

That first audition when I got out here was for

a casting director named Hank McCann.

You know who I’m talking about?

It was for a film called Boys on the Side.

And, I went and read and he goes, “I think you did

“really good, I’ll have you for a call back sometime later.”

I went off from there, I get called in

for a baseball film, Angels in the Outfield.

I walk in the door, there’s a bunch of funny

peculiarities on how the hell I got to be

standing here today.

(laughs)

I walk in the door, I was back lit.

I had an American cap on, it was a Warner Brothers lot.

I open up the door.

It was back lit in the afternoon, producer’s sitting

on the couch he looks up and goes,

“Hey, that’s (mumbles), the all American kid.”

(laughs)

And then like, he goes, “You ever play baseball?”

I said, “12 years.”

He goes, “you got the job.”

(laughs)

So, they send me, they pay me schedule f.

48 five, (laughs)

$48,500 to go play baseball for 11 weeks in Oakland.

Again, I’m going, “What is this business, man?”

(laughs)

But, it happened.

And, during that I got called back to read for

Harper Ross and Boys on the Side and got that role.

So, that Cohen Brothers film that got pushed,

that P.A. job that I would have taken if it was there

never happened and I haven’t P.A.’d since.

(laughs)

(crowd applauds)

And, I had about a year and a half where I would

audition and I would get one call back,

two call backs, three call backs, and I never got the part.

And, I remember feeling like I’m too tight,

you know what I mean?

I think maybe I’m studying too much.

I remember talking to myself and, “Maybe I’m studying

“too much about the import of the line and everything

“and you know what?

“I think I need to go back to doing what I did

“when I first started, which is I was just a guy

“and I improvised.”

So, I had a film that I was cast for and I was playing

this on the border Mexican drug lord and I told

myself I’m not going to look at the sides.

I’m not even going to read the script.

It’s an on the border Mexican drug lord,

I hear the synopsis.

If I know my man then I’ll show up and just,

obviously, I’ll read it right before I go on

and if I know my man that’ll be like,

“Well, that’s exactly what he’d say.”

(laughs)

Foolish, I go to set that morning,

all right, I’m just going to, all I have to do

is have a glance at it and it’ll be like,

“Yep, I know how to do it.”

Well, I look at it, right, before we’re about

to say action and it was a page and a half

monologue in Spanish.

(laughs)

Oh, and I knew when I felt this strip of sweat

come up on the back of my head and go down

and for whatever reason I looked over and I said,

“Can you give me like 12 minutes?”

Why I said 12 minutes I don’t know.

I figured it was like not long enough to be inconsiderate,

but long enough to maybe get a little bit of that stuff.

Anyway, I think I was horrible in it.

I stammered through some Spanish

and tried to look aligned.

So, then I was like, “Okay, that’s not the way to go.”

(laughs)

There’s a blend here of having to do your due diligence,

do your studying but then being able to go down

the day and relax and throw it all away.

I’m probably much more intentional than people

would think I am.

I make choices.

I invest in ’em. I work on ’em.

And, I don’t choose to really share a lot of that,

it’s my own private time.

I try and do the work whether it’s personally,

whether it’s on a role, whatever it is

so I can then appear like I’m blowing in the wind.

I call it create your own weather so you can

blow in the wind.

It’s conservative early, liberal late

is what I’m talking about.

See what sandbox you’re playing in.

Any glass in here, no no glass.

Okay, there’s the boundaries, that’s the rules.

Okay, now get four dimensional in the sandbox,

now blow in the breeze.

I choose my direction, we’re going east,

we’re going north, we’re going south, or we going west?

All right, I got it, this kid is going east.

Well now, you got 16 lanes to swerve in,

take an exit.

All you got to do to get there, don’t know how

we’re going to get there.

We may have a long put stop at the gas station.

We may pull off somewhere, we may stop.

But, one thing we’re not going to do is pull a u-turn

and go the other way.

Just stay in direction and swerve all you want.

That’s the liberal lane, that’s the blow in the wind.

So, I do my pre-production work whether it’s

yearly, whether it’s in the morning, when I wake up

in the morning having tea with myself.

I make a plan out for the day or the week, year,

and then I kind of set it out there and say,

“Now, how are we going to get there?

“I’m not sure, but it’s there.”

And, I’m happy to say that so many of my

goals and dreams that I’ve had

19 out of 20 that I wrote down in 1988

I completely forgot about ’em, completely forgot about ’em.

I pulled the diary out last year and 19 out of 20 I’ve done

and never once remembered specifically saying,

“You got to do that.”

So, it was in there, somehow it was going after me

getting them but I never remember trying to go get ’em.

Starting with Lincoln Lawyer was a time I said

I wanted to recalibrate my relationship with my career.

I remember saying that.

I remember thinking my career, I’m enjoying it.

I love what it’s given me, I like going to work.

I like the things I’ve been doing but everything

I started reading I felt like, “Oh, it’s like it’s

“another version of something I’ve done

“or I feel like I could do it next week.”

And, I remember going, “Well, wait a minute

“before you get mad at thinking you could do something

“next week, that’s a valid feeling.

“Don’t just say no to something ’cause you feel like

“you could naturally do it.”

But then I said, “Okay, fair, I’ll shake with you on that,

“McConaughey, but (laughs)

“let me find something that I don’t know how,

“what to do next week or the week after.

“Let me find something that I really like,

“but I’m going (vocalizes) I’m not sure.

“Them that scares me, that shakes my floor.”

And, I was fortunate enough,

’cause that schedule f check I got

in Angels in the Outfield did know that my rent was paid.

I was fortunate to know my kids were going to eat.

I was just shepherding my first son into the world.

So, I had that to take care of my time.

And, I said, “It’s a great time to go into the shadows

“and be a father and sit back and see if something

“turns you on from the inside or if something finds you

“if you’re the target that can draw you there.

“But, we’re okay, rent’s paid, kids are going to eat.

“We can take some time off.”

I in no way was thinking about, “Like oh, I’m done.”

But, I didn’t know how long the dry spell

was going to go.

So, I said no to some of the things that were

similar to what I had been doing before.

And, it took a while, I had to sit down with my agent

and say, “Hey I’m really going to do this and I need

“your help with my commitment to this because

“after eight months if the same thing comes in

“with the big 10 million dollar pay check

“it starts to read better and funnier.”

(laughs)

I promise you, brother, I mean they’re the same words.

(laughs)

All of sudden, I think this thing’s great.

(laughs)

I think I can find an angle.

I can make it a different experience for me.

So, I said I’m going to need your help bunkering down here

and saying no to some things.

And so, I’m going to need you to be a gatekeeper

one to keep from getting too many, too.

Let’s be real clear, I’m looking for some

different things to do.

He holed up, he handled that.

My wife, we said we don’t know how long it’s going to be dry.

Then, after they quit sending those then it did get dry.

Then nothing came for about a year,

– Wow. – just nothing.

I didn’t have any sleepless nights or oh my gus.

It was like, “No, I’ll find something, I’ll write.”

I was writing a lot.

I was turning myself on creatively and as I said,

I had my first son to shepard into the world.

And then, a funny thing happened, a beautiful thing

happened that somehow the target drew the arrow.

And, I think, my opinion is I became a new good idea

by removing myself.

I became William Friedkin calls for the first time.

Stephen Soderbergh calls for the first time.

Somehow in that two years I became a fresh, new idea

that I don’t think I was two to three years prior.

How that works I’m not sure because I didn’t

send a memo out.

(laughs)

But, it did happen.

Being an actor or even being an artist,

and I had studied at school behind the camera

was not even in the vernacular of my dreams.

I was raised nine to five you go to work

you work your way up a scale.

– That’s from your old man, right?

– Yeah, and that was all I was able to even,

like I said dream about.

So, the idea of living life and having a career

that was in the arts, that was in the storytelling business,

that was something that was really fun was not something

that, like I said, I even dreamed of.

I was in the right place, right time, right bar.

A guy found me and said, “You want to come in and read

“for a part in a movie “I’m here producing

“called Dazed and Confused.”

I said, “Sure.”

I go read for the part, it’s got three lines.

Three lines turns into three weeks work

they pay me $325 bucks a day.

People are telling me I’m pretty good at it.

And, I think I’m getting away with something.

And, I still do feel like I’m getting away with something.

It’s always been the most important thing for me

to be the best man that I can be.

And, my rights as a human being, number one,

then my rights as a citizen, number two.

Then, my rights or my identity as an American,

a McConaughey, all those things you can break down to family

from child of god if that’s how you see it

to being a human to being a citizen, to being an American

to being a Mconaughey, all those identifications

you get to bringing it down to self.

Those are all, come before,

now I’m a famous actor,

or now I’m an actor who has become famous

or I am a celebrity.

Celebrity and fame are amendments that came along the way.

Did they all of a sudden propose many new challenges

with how to balance life?

You damn right they did.

Needed many times, I was like, “God, can I have

“26 hours in this day instead of 24?

“I just need two more.”

Man, it’s all, and I’m not sure, I’m not discriminating

enough, I’m not being discerning enough.

I’m kind of, everything sounds good.

Everything, all the answers were no yesterday

in this career I’m taking on.

Boy, over one weekend everything’s a yes.

It invertedly flip flopped.

Yesterday I had 99 noes out of 100 scripts.

And, over one weekend after a Time to Kill comes out

it flips, 99 yeses.

Great, but hang on a minute.

I got to, these things that I’m looking at

I’m going, well yes.

Three days ago I would have said yes, to these.

I have to be much more discriminate

and really try to go, “let me ask myself what it is

“I want to do.”

That’s not easy to do because there’s time.

This was it, more important, “Can I have

“26 hours in the day?”

You know what I mean, but I don’t have it.

Disseminating between ’em,

walking that line of really respecting this job

that I do as a real privilege

and an honor to do, at the same time

you got to go from being impressed

to getting really involved.

And, I find that if I can get really involved

that doesn’t lessen my respect for a craft,

for something I’m doing.

It actually raises it because it’s a little more

of a shoulder look at it.

It’s looking it eye to eye.

I mean, if you revere

you’re never going to engage with it as much

’cause you’re always beneath it.

So, to get involved with it,

still respect it, don’t patronize it, okay understand it,

look down on it that’s not healthy either.

But also, while you can respect it, know it’s a privilege

don’t be beneath it, like, “Oh my god, I’m just so thankful

“that this is just, oh just do it.”

No, you need to look at it level and go,

“Okay, but why am I doing this and what can I give

“and what can it give me back?”

There came a time while we were working there

I was like, “Okay, the Dallas Buyer’s Club, we got to

“do that, like it fits in this year.

“And, I’m going to put it in that slot, and it was like

in the fall.”

And be like, okay, but it’s not real.

We don’t have the financing for it.

No, no, no we’ll get that, we’ll get that, we’ll get that.

It’s happening in the fall, in the fall.

And, part of getting that and he did Jean-Marc

he and I’d meet, he’s interested in

some pieces coming together.

And, what we did is we didn’t flinch once we said

we were going to make it in that fall.

Whenever we didn’t flinch when people would go,

“You can’t do this, you don’t have the money for it.”

Which we didn’t.

We’re like, “no, no we’ll get it, it’s coming.

“We got it, we’re making it in fall.”

And, we just never flinched.

And I remember I never had any doubt,

like I talked myself into it obviously

’cause hell I was wrong, there wasn’t money.

It caught up with us right as we were making it,

it caught up with us.

The money fell out.

What money was there, the money had fallen out

of this thing so many times.

What money was there and told to be real

turned out to not be real just a few weeks

before we started shooting.

And then, by that time Jean-Marc and I’d be working

on the script and I had already,

I was already into this guy and I’d lost

a bunch of weight someone said, “We may have to

“push to Spring.”

And again, I didn’t listen, I was like,

“No, we’re not pushing to Spring.

“We’re doing it this fall, we’re going.

“it’s set the date, we’re there.”

And, something about that and I wasn’t the only one

doing that, there was others, too.

The producers and Jean-Marc, something about that

it’s weird how some things can get made in this town

by just blinding saying, “No, it’s happening.”

And, if you get enough momentum and don’t even

consider the other options.

‘Cause if you flinch, if we’d have flinched

and said, “Spring,” even that would have been too much.

If would have left a sliver of light open

for somebody to go, “oh, okay at least it’s possible.”

Then, the things that happened just probably

wouldn’t have happened.

So, yeah I said yesterday it was turned down 86 times.

I got corrected last night, it turned out

the real count was it’s been turned down 137 times.

– Wow. – Wow.

– So, that is like,

I don’t know what makes this so fun.

We were never after the result with that,

just the getting of it made was so visceral that,

but now it’s around.

It’s a year later and the movie translates

and then we’re getting people talking about the film,

the message, our roles.

It makes you very proud to be here talking about it

because there was so much skin left in the game

by so many people to get it made.

– Did Jim Morrison provide inspiration

for the Dazed and Confused character?

Is that true?

– Getting ready for that role the first night

I went up for a dress rehearsal and hair and make-up

and I stepped out of the trailer and Rick Linkletter,

the director comes up and goes, “This is great.

“Look at our Wooderson, this is great.”

And he goes, “Listen man, I know you’re not

“supposed to work tonight but we got a scene

“at the Top Notch, it’s Friday night.

“I think Wooderson might be there, trolling for chicks

“what have you, you know what I mean?” He goes.

I go, “yeah, he would be there.”

He goes, “What do you think would Wooderson maybe

“be attracted to the redheaded intellectual?

“‘Cause Wooderson’s been around school,

“he’s kind of been with all the typical beauties,

“what about the redheaded intellectual?

“Do you think he’d be into that?”

I was like, “Yeah,” I said, “Give me 30 minutes

“let me take a walk.”

And he goes, “Okay.”

So, I took a walk.

Come back, we played verbal ping pong.

I told him my ideas and he told me his.

And, he goes, “Want to shoot it?”

I went, “Okay.”

So boom, we go up to the set.

I get in the car, I’m like I’m nervous.

First scene ever on film and right before

we’re about to shoot I’ve got friends in the car.

I’d been listening to this live Doors album

and in between two of the songs Morrison goes,

“All right, all right, all right, all right.”

You ever heard that recording?

– Of course.

– Right, the four, “all right, all right,

“all right, all right.”

So, right before we’re about to go I’m like,

“What is Wooderson about? What’s he about?”

And I go, “Man, he’s about four things.

“He’s about his car, he’s about getting high,

“he’s about rock and roll, and picking up chicks.”

And, I go, “I’m in my car, I’m high as a kite,

“I’m listening to rock and roll,” action,

“and there’s the chick.

“All right, all right, all right.”

Three out of four. – That’s fantastic.

(air rushes)

(thuds)

(thuds) (vocalizes)

– Yeah. (vocalizes)

Tootski.

– No, no thank you, though.

– Mister Hanna, what can I bring for you

on this glorious afternoon.

– Well Hector, here’s the game plan.

You’re going to bring us two Absolut martinis,

you know how I like them, straight up.

And then, precisely seven and one half minutes after

that you’re going to bring us two more.

And then, two more after that every five minutes

until one of us passes the (bleep) out.

(laughs)

– [Hector] Excellent strategy, sir.

– I’m good with water for now, though, thank you.

– It’s his first day on Wall Street, give him time.

Thank you. – Mm-hmm.

– Thank you.

Mister Hanna you’re able to do drugs during the day

and then still function, still do your job.

– Well, how the (bleep) else would you do this job?

Cocaine and hookers, my friend.

– Right.

I got to say I’m incredibly excited to be a part

of your firm.

I mean, the clients you have are absolutely–

– (bleep) the clients.

Your only responsibility is to put meat on the table.

You got a girlfriend?

– I’m married, I have a wife her name’s Theresa

and she cuts hair.

– Congratulations. – Thank you.

– Think about Theresa, name of the game,

move the money from your client’s pocket

into your pocket.

– Right, but if you can make the clients money

at the same time it’s advantageous to everyone, correct?

– No, number one rule of Wall Street,

nobody, okay if you’re Warren Buffet or Jimmy Buffet,

nobody knows if a stock is going to go up, down,

sideways, or in (bleep) circles, least of all stockbrokers.

It’s all a fugazi, you know what a fugazi is?

– Fugazee, it’s a fake.

– Yeah, fugazee, fugazi it’s a wahzi, it’s a woozi,

it’s (whistles) fairy dust.

It doesn’t exist, it’s never landed.

It is no matter, it’s not on the elemental chart.

It’s not (bleep) real, right? – Right.

– Stay with me.

We don’t create (bleep), we don’t build anything.

– No. – So, if you got a client

who bought stock at eight and now it sits at 16

and he’s all (bleep) happy.

He wants to cash in, liquidate, take his (bleep)

money and run home you don’t let him do that.

‘Cause that would make it real.

– Right. – No, what do you do?

You get another brilliant idea, a special idea,

another situation, another stock to reinvest his earnings

and then some.

And, he will every single time ’cause they’re

fucking addicted.

And then, you just keep doing this again,

and again, and again.

Meanwhile, he thinks he’s getting (bleep) rich,

which he is on paper, but you and me the brokers

we’re taking home cold hard cash

via commission, mother (bleep).

– Right, (laughs)

that’s incredible, sir.

I can’t tell you how excited I am.

– You should be, there’s two keys to success

in the broker business.

First of all, you got to stay relaxed.

– [Jordan] Yeah.

– You (bleep)?

– Do I (bleep)?

Yeah, yeah I (bleep), yeah.

– How many times a week?

– Like three or four times, maybe.

– I’d pump those numbers up.

Those are rookie numbers in this racket.

I myself I (bleep) at least twice a day.

– Wow. – Once in the morning

right after I work out and then once right

after lunch. – Really, mm-hmm.

– Okay, I want to, that’s not why I do it.

I do it cause I (bleep) need to.

Think about it, you’re dealing with numbers

all day long, decimal points, high frequencies,

bang, bang, bang, (vocalizes) (bleep) (vocalizes).

All very acidic above the shoulders mustard (bleep).

All right, it kind of can wig some people out,

right you got to feed the geese to keep the blood flowing.

Got to keep the rhythm below the belt.

– Done.

This is not a tip, this is a prescription, trust me.

If you don’t you will fall out of balance,

split your differential and tip the (bleep) over.

Or, worse yet, I’ve seen this happen, implode.

– Nah, I don’t want to implode sir.

– No, no you don’t.

– I’m in it for the long run, you know?

– Implosions are ugly. – Yeah.

– Pop off to the bathroom, work one out

anytime you can and when you get really good at it

you’re (bleep) be stroking it and you’ll be

thinking about money.

Second key to success in this racket

is this little baby right here.

It’s called cocaine.

– Right.

– It will keep you sharp between the ears.

It’ll also help your fingers dial faster.

And, guess what, that’s good for me.

Yes sir, revolutions, you follow?

– Revolutions. – Keep the clients

on the ferris wheel and it goes, the park is open

24/7 365, every decade, every god dammned century.

That’s it. (laughs)

(glass clinks)

The name of the game.

(mumbles)

– Thank you.

(vocalizes) (thuds)

Come on.

(vocalizes) (thuds)

With a common denominator.

(vocalizes) (thuds)

Keep it up for me.

♫ I’m CB (mumbles)

♫ And the money comes in

♫ The parade comes to town

♫ Going down Broadway

♫ It’s a one way street

♫ Going whichever way I go♫

– Can you tell us anything about that Mister Cohle?

(sighs)

That looks a lot like the one from 95.

But, you knew that already.

– Yeah, there is specifics consistent to the 95 case.

Details that weren’t public knowledge.

– You were off the grid for eight years, right?

Show back up in 2010.

– My question is–

– How could it be him,

if we already caught him in 95.

How indeed, detectives.

– [Black Haired Detective] I figured you’d be

the one to know.

(metal clangs)

– Then, start asking the right (bleep) questions.

(funky music)

– Mister Woodroof, you can listen to me for a moment.

I know this can be a very scary thing.

I know you’re probably feeling overwhelmed right now.

But, what we would like to do is to impress upon you

the gravity of your situation.

Based on your health, based on your condition,

based on all the evidence we have we estimate

you have 30 days left to put your affairs in order.

– 30 days?

– I’m sorry.

(phone rings)

– (bleep) this, what is this (bleep)?

(bleep) 30 days mother (bleep).

Let me give ya’ll a little news flash.

Ain’t nothing out there that can kill (bleep)

Ron Woodroof in 30 days.

(papers rustle)
