Watch Dallas Buyers Club

The Dallas Buyers Club, starring Matthew McConaughey and Jennifer Garner, tells the true story of a man determined to fight against AIDS. In 1985, Ron Woodroof was a hard-living redneck who loved women and parties. That all changed after he suffered a work related injury and was rushed to the Emergency Room. He tests positive for AIDS and is given only thirty days to live.

Angered at having a disease associated with the “faggots” he hates, and with the idea that this disease could kill him so quickly, he throws a fit and storms out of the Emergency Room. At first ignoring the reality, then diving into research on the disease and finally accepting that those suffering from the disease have little medical hope for a cure, he looks outside the United States. It is a race of one man against himself, the Government and a terminal disease.
