9 Super Bizzare Reasons Actors Drank On Set

You should practice acting intoxicated in front of a mirror the next time you are by yourself because it is much more difficult than you probably imagined. Your body motions and voice need to be sloppy without becoming comic, and your speech needs to be slurred just enough so that it doesn't immediately sound like you're acting.
If you have ever wondered whether actors are truly drinking alcohol when they booze it up in Movies or are just extremely adept at method acting, these nine strange facts will offer you the truth behind some of the most notoriously boozy flicks of all time.

In Leaving Las Vegas, there's a scene where Nicolas Cage's character loses it at a blackjack table. Cage said on the show Inside the Actors Studio that he was really drunk during this scene, which is not something he usually does. "I never drink when I act, but I wanted to put drinking into some scenes," Cage said. "So, when I'm freaking out in the casino, it's because I'm really drunk."

2. Neve Campbell and Denise Richards In "Wild Things"

In the 1998 movie Wild Things, Neve Campbell, Denise Richards, and Matt Dillon have a scene with just the three of them. The producers decided right before the shoot that Campbell and Richards should kiss on camera. Richards says in her book Real Girl Next Door that she and Campbell got drunk before the scene because they were so nervous: "Neve and I went into her trailer and shared a pitcher of margaritas before we did the scene. Neither of us had ever kissed another girl. We shrugged, clinked glasses, and went for it on-screen."
