I actually hadn't heard of True Detective til now. Looks amazing. Woody Harrelson is also a top notch actor, like Matthew Mc.
I used to actively dislike Matthew McC, but in the past two years or so, he's been great in Bernie, Killer Joe, Magic Mike and even has a great 5 minutes in Wolf of Wall Street. And I'm skipping some stuff. He is so good in Dallas Buyer's Club I'm pretty sure he'll win (unless they give it to Bruce Dern for old time's sake). So restrained. He just is the character.
I contrast this with Christian Bale who seems to be continuously thinking, "C'mon, gimme the Oscar. Look how good I'm acting. I'm really getting into this. C'mon. Gimme." Dude, stop acting. You'll be a much better actor.
