In the same notion of John’s Harrison Ford Movies to watch where he is not Indy or Han, I tripped over a article at EW.com that says there are movies where Matthew McConaughey is not just a half naked surfer slacker destined for RomComs.
DAZED AND CONFUSED (1993)
BOYS ON THE SIDE (1995)
LONE STAR (1996)
A TIME TO KILL (1996)
AMISTAD (1997)
EDTV (1999)
U-571 (2000)
THE WEDDING PLANNER (2001)
FRAILTY (2002)
REIGN OF FIRE (2002)
SAHARA (2005)
WE ARE MARSHALL (2006)
Back when the rumour was flying about McConaughey being considered for Captain America, everyone barked that he was a poor actor and only could do one role. I think the list above proves he is capable. I think he would be great in it if he can drop the Texas drawl.
Are there any other McConaughey performances that break that stereotype his RomCom appearances have stuck him in?
