Liza Loves "Dallas Buyers Club"...

Liza Loves “Dallas Buyers Club,” Offers Her Oscar To Matthew McConaughey /

I have nothing to do with this film except that I am a fan of how it was done, of the insight and the way they played these characters. And the fact that you were watching something that wasn’t necessarily comfortable but you could not stop watching. It drew you in, whether you wanted it to or not, and that’s magic. That’s magic. I mean, the last one [that did that for me] was On the Waterfront! You, crazy Matthew, losing all of that weight — it’s one thing to lose all of that weight and to look like that — that’s harrowing enough — but then to run like you did, with a body like that? And Jared, I mean, everything that you did — all of the placements, every single second — I felt wonderful for you, proud of you and sorry for you all at the same time, which I think one only feels for your friends. And Jennifer [Garner] was great — she was just f—ing great! (Laughs.) I don’t know what else to say. I haven’t seen a movie like that in so long, and I’m so proud to be able to tell everybody. And honey, if you don’t win the Academy Award, I’m giving you mine!” – The legendary entertainer, who won a best actress Oscar for 1972′s Cabaret, who hosted a soiree for Dallas Buyers Club to help boost its appeal with Academy members
