why don't you bring him a plate? >> who? >> him. >> oh, no, no. i'm not going to do that, he's the man of your dreams, not mine. >> come on, honey. >> no, no, he doesn't like me very much. >> don't be scared. >> his name is suicide. >> please? >> honey -- no. >> jimmy: that is greg kinnear and renee zellweger in "same kind of different as me." this is a true story. that's the title of a book that this is based on. >> yep, uh-huh. >> jimmy: i don't want to reveal much. tell us what the movie is about. >> well, it's like you said, based on a book, at true story of ron and debbie hall, a couple from ft. worth who befriended a homeless man named denver moore. together they decide they had were going to transform the services available for homeless
12:40 am
people in their community. and they changed a lot of lives. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: did any of the real people involved in this story, were they around the set? >> yeah, ron. who wrote the book about their experiences. and he's gone on to be an inspirational speaker. he and denver moore, they toured the country for years together. and they raised something like $70 million for homeless charities. >> jimmy: wow. [ cheers and applause ] >> yeah. >> jimmy: that's very inspirational. >> yeah, it is. that's the idea of the book, you know. is to sort of change your thinking about the difference that you can make on your own by just making up your mind that you'd like to. >> jimmy: speaking of ins operation inspirational speakers, how many movies have you and matthew mcconaughey done together? >> that's a really good question. two, three? >> jimmy: two or three. >> i've been doing this awhile, y'all. >> jimmy: it started obviously with "dazed and confused."

and then who would have guessed that two of the people in "the texas chainsaw massacre" sequel would go on to win academy awards? the odds to have to be against that. [ applause ] >> i hadn't made that connection but that's astute. >> jimmy: what do you remember about him at that time during those days? >> well, you know -- nice guy. he's still a friend of mine. in fact, i've met my best friend through him. i'm godmother now to her children. but i remember he was whittling while we were making that film, he was whittling a gear shift knob in the shape of texas for his truck. >> jimmy: oh, of course he was whittling a gear shift knob. >> it was great. >> jimmy: that's the most matthew mcconaughey thing you could possibly do. >> it was fantastic. >> jimmy: wow. >> we shared an agent before i met him. i didn't know this. she would call and say, there's this guy. he's going to school at ut too. you guys come to dallas all the
12:42 am
time and audition for the same things, you should ride up together. i'd say, oh, yeah, yeah, thanks. here's his number, give him a call. yeah, yeah i'll definitely do this. i'm thinking to myself, there's no way i'm calling this actor guy, i'm going to get stuck in the car for 3 1/2 hours each way, this is not going to happen. when we were making "texas chainsaw massacre" he said, you know, that agent, she told me about you, and she gave me your number, and she told me i should call you and i said, hm, okay. and i was thinking, there's no way i'm calling that actress girl, stuck in the car for 3 1/2 hours. >> jimmy: wow. >> we're still pals. [ applause ] >> jimmy: i think if there's anything we've learned from those lincoln commercials is he likes to talk to himself in the car. [ laughter ] so don't take it personally. well, it's great to have you here. please come back again soon. renee zellweger, everybody! "same kind of different as me"
