First-time nominee Matthew McConaughey won the Oscar for Best Actor for his performance as Ron Woodroof in Dallas Buyers Club, the role for which he lost a great amount of weight to play a man who battled AIDS for seven years after being told he had only 30 days to live. McConaughey beat out fellow nominees Christian Bale, Bruce Dern, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Chiwetel Ejiofor.

The Academy Awards, commonly known as The Oscars is an annual American awards ceremony honoring achievements in the film industry. The 86th Annual Academy Awards were held on Sunday, March 2, 2014 at the Dolby Theatre at Hollywood and Highland.
There are a lot of nominees who compete in various category. But the thoughest race this year was for Best Actor because there have been some of the biggest name up in this field. Christian Bale was nominated for his role in "American Hustle," Bruce Dern for "Nebraska," Leonardo DiCaprio for "The Wolf of Wall Street," Chiwetel Ejiofor for "12 Years a Slave," and Matthew McConaughey for "The Dallas Buyers Club."
It was widely believed this would be the year Leonardo DiCaprio would finally get an Oscar, after his performance in ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ wowed critics and audiences alike. This means Leonardo is a four-time Oscar nominee but has never actually won an Academy Award. However, Matthew McConaughey really deserves to win because he did an amazing work and even he lost his 30 to 40 pounds to play the good-ol’-boy homophobe who contracts AIDS. Congratulations!
