I liked a lot of the same things others have already mentioned, the inner monologue, self-doubt, and Oscar speech. Overall, I liked it.
But I do feel that the story was lacking in a few particular details:
1) The audience never received any real information about the brilliant masterpiece written by Anthony. Odd.
2) Matt doesn't even know what part he's refusing until nearly the end of the story. The audience never does.
3) We have no idea what language Matt translates for work. Any reason why not?
4) What was the old habit Matt nearly took up again? Would have added dimension to his character.
5) More detail on how the song mirrors their relationship. Lyrics would have also helped
