Bradley Cooper

Yes.

That could be like.

Yeah.

You know, the silence and then the cameras, boom, there's nowhere to go.

It was never just real audiences because you have to hit the quota of extras with SAG and all that.

But we tried to do it as authentic as possible, which was everybody that works at the cellar, they're there in the movie, everybody who agreed to do it.

So all the waiters and everything, the staff, that's all people that work there.

Yeah.

Liz, who's the manager, who plays the manager, she's the manager of the cellar.

So all those people are real.

But then the patrons, I can't remember what the email was or what the ask was, but people who like to go to stand-up comedy, who go regularly.

And then once they were there, I never told them what was going to happen.

I never directed them once.

It was like whatever they're laughing at.

That's it.

And I don't do many takes.

So you're getting an authentic reaction.

Now it's hyped up because there's cameras there and it's a movie, but they're not told what to do.

And so, and even in the mix, like we never added anything.

There was no added laugh, nothing.
