This is not an original point, but it bears repeating: His character had less than ten minutes of screen time in a 3 hour movie and yet he is one of the most memorable things in it.

Does it annoy anyone else that the screen is flipped

[YouCanCallMeAl]

So we have to thank Leo for this one? GIVE THE MAN HIS DAMN OSCAR ALREADY!

I could listen to McConaughey telling stories like for two straight months! What a dude. So balanced.

This reversed Screen is the perfect example for stephen kings definition of horror

Leo is a genius for telling him he should add it to the scene tho like wtf i love them both even more lol it’s so original and creative!

listening to Matthew McConaughey, establishing scenes in his head in like seconds shows his brilliance

Leo and Matthew is easily two of my favorite actors and you can really tell they love what they do and really bring their 110% and they are geniuses when it comes to film, what looks good, what will work and to improvise on the spot. That famous scene in Wolf of Wallstreet is their combines minds working together and it is awesome to watch! :D

Amazing how he's only in one scene in a 3-hour movie, but it's one of the most show-stealing, iconic moments everyone remembers.

what i like about this show is the relaxed after dinner party feel it has. where the guests are relaxed enough to be themselves and not "performing." The american guests always seem almost awkward at how relaxed and "normal" the vibe is.

That is great. I consistently get told I sound like McConnaughey. After I say “I wish I looked like him, ” I take that compliment with pride.

The humming was simply one of the best scenes I have seen in movies :) Just awesome :)

Less than 8 mins of screen time of a 150+ mins of a movie and the forever memory of him in this movie.. is why he's amazing at what he does.. and deserves his flowers.. Leonardo, denzil and Matthew are the GOATS of this industry.. the numbers don't matter.. the quality does.

Him a Leo are my 2 fave actors, 2 cool extraordinary people

[jaymeister]

This is what happens when you have great actors and a great director. They get the bare bones script. Then they put themselves to work, to try and bring the character out. Leo has the great idea, Matthew executes it to perfection and Martin Scorsese's keen eye knows that this is money.

Great writing, great acting, great improv and great directing.

You can tell a lot of that was adlibed. That's what makes it so good. It's live, it's rough, it's got mistakes (not acting mistakes, just mistakes that occur normally in conversation).

I really thought that the humming was all planned seeing as Leo's character makes everyone do it later on the film.

Also he was incredible True Detective which is probably the best thing I have seen on TV 

[acephyo]

the best scene in the entire movie to me . that hamming sound and his character are so unique in the movie .

[mkphotofilm]

He really does have this aura about him. He's the type of guy you would imagine as a good, charismatic friend

I was diagnosed with vocal cord nodules and my doctor told me to do that chest beating with rythm every morning lol
