Cooper added, “I will be going to see the children.”
The actor mentioned that they were able to shoot scenes for the movie “in that house” and the family even let Cooper “wear their father’s bathrobe for the scenes”.
Cooper pointed out that he dedicated six years to prepare for the Bernstein’s role.
“His music was nuclear,” added Cooper of late composer.
Meanwhile, Cooper talked about his performance in the movie, saying, “It didn’t feel like acting, it felt like we were just channeLling these people, so it was so thrilling. I mean, I’ll never have an experience like this.”
Gushing over Cooper’s performance in the movie, the late Bernstein’s child Jamie told Variety, “It took our breath away, it made us gasp. We literally opened our doors to Bradley and his team.”
