Bradley Cooper shares his best acting tip he received from his acting coach.

Bradley Cooper must feel like he is on top of the world. Cooper is currently nominated for best actor in ‘American Sniper’ which recently made over $300 million in the box office and now the Acting Studio alumnus isĀ on Broadway for the theatrical play, “The Elephant Man”. But, it did not begin like this for the 40-year-old actor, he was once a struggling actor, trying to find his way into Hollywood.

In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Bradley Cooper revealed the best piece of acting advice he received from his acting coach.

“I was never able to relax in my life before her,” Bradley Cooper once said of Elizabeth Kemp, his longtime acting guru. Though the teacher-pupil dynamic ended when he graduated from the Actors Studio Drama School in 2000, Kemp, 56, has advised the 40-year-old star ā€” in person or via Skype ā€” on nearly every one of his film roles, including his Oscar-nominated performance inĀ American Sniper.

One technique she taught Cooper in 1997 was to take note of all his dreams for a week. “It’s a way to prepare, to relax, to open up,” she explains. InĀ Sniper, “the performance is the under-layers,” says Kemp. “You could feel them. Even if he’s just standing there or sitting there or just staring at something. He actually transformed himself into Chris KyleĀ ā€” not only the exterior but the inner life.”
