NEW YORK, April 25 — Welcome to ‘The Best Of’, where we handpick a few outstanding performances from the careers of your favourite movie stars.

For a man with a seemingly perpetual ‘Hangover’, Bradley Cooper has done very well for himself. Now on the tip of everyone’s tongue, and one of the biggest names in tinsel town, he’s achieved a lot, but what are some of his more memorable roles?

First we’ll start off with his performance as Phil in the extremely popular ‘Hangover’ trilogy. As a teacher who behaves more like a student, Bradley pulled off the irresponsible, fun loving character with ease, almost as if he was just being himself in Vegas.

His next top role earned him his first Oscar nomination. In ‘Silver Linings Playbook’ Cooper plays a former teacher who moves back to his parents house after a stint in a mental institution, but things start to go awry when he meets a mysterious girl with her own problems.

Bradley earned yet another Oscar nod from working with the same director as ‘Silver Linings Playbook’. His role in David O. Russell’s ‘American Hustle’ wowed audiences just as much as the movie did.

With two Oscar nominations in two years, it can only be a matter of time before he takes one home with him and gains the well deserved respect of his peers. — Cover Media
