  2. **Cooper :**

    > Up until that point, I was always just trying to get it right on camera. Be present and get it right. I’m watching Vince Vaughn destroy a scene, just crush it, and then he wants another take. It was the scene where the grandmother is shooting him, takes the gun out and he’s running out. He’s just like, ‘I want to do another one.” In front of everyone…this huge crew and lights and it’s so nerve-wracking…and it was his willingness to fail.”

    > “Watching Vince Vaughn…this huge tough guy, funniest guy, quickest guy…I was just in awe of this human, this man just failing, just willing to try anything. At some point he was just scatting and caught onto this thing and was doing this song. I loved seeing it, but clearly it wasn’t working. But it didn’t even matter. It was all of us watching this artist just explore with complete abandon. It was like a diamond through the middle of my head going, ‘That’s it! That freedom to just be absolutely willing to fail.’ It changed me forever. That was the moment.”

  5. This was before bradly cooper was famous. But I knew he’d be famous after seeing this movie. This is maybe my favorite comedy ever

  6. Vince was phenomenal in this movie… Really great acting imho.

  8. I really love this movie. I just don’t like how it does the same thing that almost every comedy does and comes to a complete stop and devolves into a serious romantic movie at the end. That’s just my opinion.

  9. Vince deserves more praise. He’s just so charismatic and manages to have great chemistry with basically anyone he’s acting with. I kinda miss when he was everywhere in the comedy world but he’s left his mark so I don’t blame him for stepping out of the spotlight for the most part

  10. Loved Vince in Brawl in Cell Block 99. Different vibe from his normal roles.
