In the number where he has to play a drunk, he actually took two shot of whiskey before the first shot. Then another before each next take, and there were 7 takes. He was not a great drinker, he liked to drink now and then. And there were 7 takes, so the seventh one, he was pretty well on his way. And of course that’s the take they used. -Ava Astaire
