He was died suddenly in his cabin outside Quebec City, Canada, over the weekend, his representative Bumble Ward said Sunday. Vallée was acclaimed for his naturalistic approach to filmmaking, directing stars including Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Amy Adams and Jake Gyllenhaal over the past directed Emily Blunt in 2009′s “The Young Victoria” and became a sought-after name in Hollywood after “Dallas Buyers Club,” featuring Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto, earned six Academy Awards nominations, including best picture.“With a gentle hand and heart Jean-Marc was a true receiver — he didn’t romanticize life so much as he saw life romantic — from the struggle to the pain to the wink and the whisper, love stories were everywhere in his eye,” tweeted McConaughey, one of several stars paying tribute to Vallée on often shot with natural light and hand-held cameras, giving actors freedom to improvise from the script and move around within a scene’s location. The crew roamed up and down the Pacific Coast Trail to shoot Witherspoon in 2014′s “Wild.”“They can move anywhere they want,” the Canadian filmmaker said of his actors in a 2014 interview with The Associated Press. “It’s giving the importance to storytelling, emotion, characters. I try not to interfere too much. I don’t need to cut performances. Often, the cinematographer and I were like, ‘This location sucks. It’s not very nice. But, hey, that’s life.’”He re-teamed with Witherspoon to direct the first season of “Big Little Lies” in 2017, and directed Adams in 2018′s “Sharp Objects,” also for HBO. Vallée won DGA awards for both.“I will always remember you as the sun goes down,” Witherspoon wrote on Instagram along with a series of photos of the director. “Chasing the light. On a mountain in Oregon. On a beach in Monterey. Making sure we all caught a little magic in this lifetime. I love you, Jean Marc. Until we meet again.”Her “Big Little Lies” co-star Laura Dern on Instagram called Vallée a “beloved friend” who was “one of our great and purest artists and dreamers.”Leto said on Twitter that he was “a filmmaking force and a true artist who changed my life.”And Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau tweeted that “Jean-Marc Vallée’s passion for filmmaking and storytelling was unmatched — so too was his talent. Through his work and with his art, he left a mark in Quebec, across Canada, and around the world.”___Associated Press Writers Jake Coyle and Andrew Dalton contributed to this 2021 The Associated Press.

Entertainment February 22, 2014 / 7:00 AM / CBS News The Oscar-nominated actor told CBS News' Lee Cowan about the low-budget 25-day shoot Matthew McConaughey on pressures filming "Dallas Buyers Club" 01:45 Matthew McConaughey didn't just star in "Dallas Buyers Club," he also put up some of his own money to help get the film made. Matthew McConaughey's low-budget "Dallas Buyers Club" brings high acclaim 01:50 Based on true events, the drama centers on Ron Woodruff, a red-blooded Texan who goes to extremes to live longer after being diagnosed with HIV in the 1980s. The 44-year-old actor, who is now starring on HBO's "True Detective," told CBS News' Lee Cowan in an interview for "Sunday Morning" that it was very difficult to secure financing for the project, given that the film focuses on a somewhat-unlikable homophobic drug addict fighting a grim prognosis. McConaughey says that the film was turned down 137 times by studios and financiers before it eventually came to fruition. The "Wolf of Wall Street" star also revealed that the filmmakers hit a major snag after the film was green-lit. "We think we have financing, we find out five weeks out that financing was not real," he told Cowan. "We have a start date, and everyone finds out that financing was not real, so we start to sweat and scramble." But persistence, and some personal donations, paid off in the end.
