Matthew McConaughey said that he didn't expect winning the Oscar award for 'Best Actor in a Lead Role' for his performance in 'Dallas Buyers Club'.
The 44-year-old actor, who plays the role of HIV positive sufferer in the film, said that it's the end of a journey with this film that he started four years ago and it feels wonderful to get a prize for something that's not his fad or hobby, but for his career.
McConaughey also joked that he wouldn't reveal any spoiler related to his TV series 'True Detective'.
