"I'm a product of nepotism" - Jeff Bridges
Jeff Bridges – aka The Dude – sits down with Piers Morgan for the hour tonight to talk about his long acting career, his new self-titled CD, how to play a drunk and much more.
Bridges often plays the role of a drunk including his role as Rooster Cogburn in "True Grit." So how does he prepare for these roles? "I simply use something us actors call sense memory," Bridges says. He remembers how something felt, recalls it and pretends. But he did admit, “I’ve been puke-drunk before.”
