As well, I mean.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Buffista Movies 4: Straight to Video
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If you don't count that Affleck kid, sure.
(not that I remember enough about the movie to know the relative sizes of the roles...)
From McConaughey's IMDB listing, it doesn't look like he broke for a little while longer.

I only saw D&C once, and have no memory of Affleck in it. Huh.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
He was the asshole senior with the paddle.

I have no memory of MM in Lone Star.
McConaughey's role was showy and charismatic, but also about 8 minutes of a 2 hour film. That movie belonged to Chris Cooper, lock stock and barrel.
However, I have vivid ones of CC.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Gretchen Mol is the poster child for Vanity Fair should not try to make stars all on their own. Due to it not working.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Huh. IMDB's poll of the day question looks suspiciously Buffista-ish and was created by a Dawn K. ::narrows eyes, looks So-Cal-ward::

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
McConaughey played the young sherriff's deputy in Lone Star, Chris Cooper's father. He was only in flashbacks.
Dazed and Confused had lots of people in it -- it was an indie cornucopia. Parker Posey, Ben Affleck (when he was indie), Joey Lauren Adams, Adam Goldberg, that blond guy who went on to star in Rent, Rory Cochrane who was on CSI Miami until this year, and the dude who played Floyd (who only seems overexposed because he is an identical twin).
I didn't hear about McConaughey till his Vanity Fair summer. In fact, I had already seen Dazed and Confused, and I went back and looked for him, and couldn't find him in that movie by sight. He had to open his mouth before I recognized him.
