Video: 11 famous actors who had to "take on the chest" to get into character
2024 Author: Richard Flannagan | [email protected]. Last modified: 2023-12-15 23:55
Everyone knows that the acting environment is famous for fun parties where alcohol can be served. For some, these drinks help relieve intense psychological stress on set. How do the directors feel about this? The appearance of a drunk at the workplace can also mean dismissal from filming, and … on the contrary, be encouraged as a necessary element of complete transformation, relaxation and reincarnation into the image conceived by the scriptwriters. And for girls, it can also become a way to transcend their own moral boundaries. Yes, there are still times when it is necessary to drown out the fear of a difficult and dangerous trick. In general, there can be many reasons.
Anna Kendrick
The title of the movie "Drinking Companions" speaks for itself. The action takes place in a brewery - why not get drunk? At first, Anna really drank non-alcoholic beer, until the director's assistants confused and put the usual in the frame. Since they had to drink a lot, not everyone realized at once that the actress was no longer playing - she was actually drunk! The filming process turned out to be more expensive to stop than adding a fresh alcoholic drink. As a result, in some of the scenes we see Anna as sober as a piece of glass, and in others she is already pretty good. Can you identify?
Robert Shaw
This actor owns the following phrase: "Imagine yourself as a celebrity and try to accept the load of popularity without alcohol." Well, how not to understand a person in this complex profession and not support him? Slightly tipsy - this state was common for the now deceased actor. However, once the passion for "liquid sedatives" turned out to be in the hands of director Steven Spielberg. During the filming of the movie "Jaws", the actor could not manage to read the long text in one breath. A few sips of alcohol did the trick. Robert Shaw's impressive monologue from this film has become a real classic.
Daniel Radcliffe
Glory and popularity went to this actor from an early age. And again this is the case when the young sorcerer to cope with a heavy burden was helped by "magic" alcoholic couples. He was not seen drinking alcohol in the workplace. Nevertheless, he often found himself on the set in a state of light drinking. Probably, it became more and more difficult for Harry Potter to fight against evil forces, especially during the filming of the last parts of the saga.
Jennifer Lawrence
Women's fears are connected with something completely different. There is nothing to do with dangerous wizards, much more terrible are their own monsters and … other people's wives. In the movie "Passengers" Jennifer had to play in a frank bed scene with Chris Pratt, who was married. Erotic footage was on the verge of failure, until someone came to mind to offer the couple a glass or two of wine. Moral restrictions were lifted, and passionate kissing succeeded as a result. As Jennifer later admitted, she was very uncomfortable: “I thought. What am I doing? He is married. This is my first kiss to a married man, and I am terribly ashamed."
Denise Richards
Kissing a man is a flower. Denise Richards had to assure everyone of the true passion of kissing a girl! In the movie Wildness, the writers worked on the scenes where Denis, along with his partner Neve Campbell, play mistresses. According to MadeMan. Com, this thriller was ranked third among the films with the best lesbian scenes. Although in the television version of the film, these scenes were excluded - they must have been very successful. For Denise Richard, this was the first experience of female kissing, so for courage the girls skipped another cocktail, and only after that they revealed their acting potential.
Margot Robbie
Modesty adorns a woman. But for an actress, this is not the best quality. Especially when nude shots are coming. The bright and fearless blonde in the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" performed by Margot Robbie would not have been so charming naked if the director had not thought of treating the aspiring actress with a glass of champagne. The aspiring Hollywood star, although she was not a lover of alcohol, was, however, the only chance to save the picture.
Brad Pitt
Sometimes, only into a drunken head extraordinary thoughts can come. And the question is not in the brilliant embodiment of the image conceived by the director, but in something completely different. For example, the filming of the movie "Fight Club" took place strictly according to plan. Brad Pitt and his co-star Edward Norton played the "drunken" scene perfectly, while not kissing the bottle at all. This was the last shot for the current day, and the friends decided to have a drink now for real after a hard day. A bit drunk, the actors really cheered up and started throwing balls into the mobile kitchen. The film crew liked the excitement - this is how a scene appeared in the film where the heroes “under a scarf” play golf with drive.
Billy Bob Thornton
The black comedy Bad Santa has become a favorite New Year's Eve movie for generations. According to the script, the main character Willie was a rogue and a drunkard. And the booze helped Billy Bob Thornton fully get used to this role. Every day for three months, while the film was being filmed, he appeared on the set a little tipsy. This is probably why he accurately managed to convey the behavior, facial expressions and gestures of the main character of the picture. By the way, for this role he was nominated for the Golden Globe. Billy Bob, probably, found the best way not only to enjoy drinking alcoholic drinks, but also monetary reward for the talentedly embodied intoxicating Santa. Unsurprisingly, Billy has more than once agreed to participate in the continuation of the successful work.
Alexey Serebryakov and Vladimir Vdovichenkov
The "drunken" scenes of the film "Leviathan" turned out to be so convincing only because the director of the film, Andrei Zvyagintsev, suggested that the actors set up an experiment. And they did. The alcohol on the table turned out to be not tinted water, but a real alcohol-containing liquid. The actors appreciated this, and the work went better. Alexey Serebryakov and Vladimir Vdovichenko, sipping a glass or two, fully met the expectations of the film crew.
Alexey Nilov
The star of the series "Streets of Broken Lanterns" in his 56 years was more than once seen in the arms of a green snake. In 2007, he even experienced clinical death while under the influence of alcohol. He drank constantly - both before and after, and during filming. And his acting talent and the name developed over the years allowed Alexei to actually play “on autopilot”. However, now Nilov has completely got rid of addiction, leads a healthy lifestyle, is engaged in physiotherapy exercises and visits the temple.
