PLUS! Stay tuned for an exclusive coverage from the “Begin Again” press conference in New York City!
And now for our drinking game…
Trust us guys, don’t go in dry to this one. Do the smart thing and bring along this drinking game – we dub it…
Boozin Again
I. Whenever Mark Ruffalo drinks — take a drink.
II. Whenever someone says something cheesy — take a drink.
III. Whenever Kiera Knightley becomes emotional — take two drinks.
IV. Whenever there is an emotionally charged extended song performance — FINISH YOUR DRINK.
