wow, the sexiest man alive was interviewed by matthew mcconaughey! mcconaughey may have a lot more public policy appearances coming, because according to a new poll, matthew mcconaughey commands more support to be texas' next governor than incumbent greg abbott: 45%, compared to 33% that's a huge lead for someone who's not a politician. although if he does officially enter the race, you can be sure they'll look for skeletons in his closet, or in mcconaughey's case, "ghosts of girlfriends past." for those wondering, i can say categorically that matthew mcconaughey is not going to run for governor. he's going to drive-- a lincoln talking to himself the entire time. anyway, back on the vaccine special, it might not be reaching the right groups, because in a recent poll of republicans and white evangelical christians, "almost 30% of each group says they will 'definitely not' get a shot." apparently, the message "the vaccine is safe and effective" isn't as believable as "hugo chavez and a cabal of celebrity pedophiles stole an election from the least popu

here he is, the one, the only matthew mcconaughey. >> hey, jimmy. how are you doing, sir >>jimmy: that's my man thank you so much for coming back and talking to me on "the tonight show." you know we love you, buddy, and congrats on this big deal you're doing this weekend for texas. i can't think of anyone more >> jimmy: because i know you're a huge -- i -- you're a huge fan of air streams we talked about this >> i've got four of them i lived in one of them for four years on the road all over north america. i've got three in my yard right now. and me the family slept in one last night >> jimmy: no way see? you went all across the country, right, in these air streams? >> all over. there's only one state i haven't been to, north dakota, in my air stream my airstream -- the tires -- the rubber on the tires on my air stream has touched the ground of all the states in the united states besides north dakota >> jimmy: north dakota's the last one the missing link the last piece the last piece of the puzzle >> that's it >> jimmy: you've got to do it, buddy, y

so on one hand the characters played by anthony hopkins and matthew mcconaughey. they reflect the real actions of real abolitionists in a courtroom, but they do a very poor job on the other hand of contextualizing those characters. within the broader debate over slavery that was happening in america and the 1830s and 40s. there was a big difference, especially in the north and in new england among everyday people who didn't think it was right to import more slaves, but who were still okay with other people owning slaves as long as they didn't really have to see it from watching amistad you would get the sense that everyone is like john quincy adams and just finds the institution abhorrent. um, perhaps the most telling observation of all that we can pull from this century worth of movie making is that of all the antislavery films that we saw produced between 1995 and 2016 only two of them vampire hunter and free state of jones actually have a plot that singles out the confederacy as an attempt to the institution of slavery. now to be clear, i don't mean to stay tha

that comes with steven spielberg's "amistad" featuring morgan freeman, matthew mccocon mcconaughey. it breaks knew ground. i wish i was capable of showing you that sequence from the middle passage. it's disturbing and heartbreaking and gives you an idea of what the conditions you read about in textbooks might have looked like. it's not a perfect representation, no film is, but it gives you a pretty good place to start. and i do hope we can address the inclusion of africans themselves in the prom ligation of a slave trade during the q&a if that comes up. but after the popularity of "amistad" and the unappreciated release of "the journey of august king" southern slavery is going to disappear from hollywood studios for more than a decade. when it reappears in 2012 it comes in the form of films with large budgets and unconventional plot, "abraham lincoln vampire hunter" and "jango unchanged". the first, president lincoln wages a super natural war against the confederacy of slave devouring vampires. there's a metaphor there, it gets lost. jango unchained which came out that year represen

[laughter] you know, rachel, i think the thing that is very similar about the rock andth matthew mcconaughey is that they're super moderate. and i think they see themselves as people who could unite the country and bring america back together, and that's a pretty appealing idea to a lot of americans. >> yeah. i mean, i think that's a possibility. ooh i'm not sure how i'd feel about either one of them, and i'd have to, you know, suss out their politics a little bit more. but remember, my his was the first national politician to come out of reality television. donald trump was the second. [laughter] so i am not opposed to politicians coming out of, you know, tv the, reality tv. i love ronald reagan, so a lot of my favorites. and remember, ben, you put a good point there. it's not just getting elected, but being an outsider, being beholden to no one and being rich can make you a better politician because, remember, donald trump had the best economy pre-covid really in our, in modern history. >> griff, what do you think about the rock for presidentsome. >> well, i wasn't thinking he was presiden

matthew mcconaughey returns with a rifle, not with law books. i'm talking about "the free state of jones". it was based on pioneering archive work done by the civil war historian vickie binam. a county attempted to secede after mississippi seceded from the union despite action sequences and some actually pretty decent performances, the film received mixed reviews, and it was very quickly eclipsed by another anti-slavery film with a much smaller budget and far less studio fanfare. this one was written and directed by nate parker who is in the very center of your screen here. 2016 was sort of the year of the wide angle shot with everyone lined up holding guns and knives. the movie chronicles the 1831 slave revolt in georgia. it's not a wholly realistic recreation, but it's one that does two things better than any other cinematic rendering of slavery had ever done before. this is really the first picture that highlights the corrosive dehumanizing aspect of white southerners in their addiction to slavery. so you see the adverse effects that jefferso

mcconaughey holds a double-digit lead against the current governor in a hypothetical head to head. 45% to abbott's 33%. the question is whether the star would say all right, all right, all right to a gubernatorial run. last month mcconaughey told al roker he would consider the idea >> very interesting numbers there. >>> spring is in the air, but snow was again like we've been talking about is in the forecast janessa webb joins us now with more on that snow. >> good morning. last week we were talking about this next storm system and it's already starting to brew across the rockies into the central u.s. and that's why winter weather alerts, they're in place we have advisories and winter storm warnings we're going to see a good amount of snow for the higher elevations then this snow really expands into the midwest, northeast and parts of the tennessee valley as we go into your midweek. so right now the forecast is calling for an additional 2 to 4 inches in these spots. and we could set some records for the latest snowfall across chicago all the way into detroit. also, freeze warnings. we'
