I admit, I wasn't thrilled when I first learned that you were going to play the role of a pedophile. It's not considered a "sympathetic" role. But, I persevered, watched it, and cried. Although I've loved watching you in many different movies, this is the one that I think is the most poignant.
Congratulations, Matthew! It's well deserved!
