The Role: Jack Baker

Why It’s The Best: One of Bridges’ favourite movies, and the one that pairs him on-screen with older brother Beau.

The duo play jazz pianist siblings who take on a female singer as their act starts to flounder in the face of overwhelming competition. But their new singer changes their lives completely – both for better and worse.

Iconic Moment: Jack tinkles the ivories as a never-hotter Michelle Pfeiffer dons a sexy red dress and husks the lyrics of ‘Making Whoopee’.

Jeff Says: “That was a dream, both to get to work with Beau, and also with Michelle [Pfeiffer]. Steve Kloves, the director, must have written that when he was about 24 years old. It's one of my favourite films that I've ever done.

“I try to not engage, and resist as much as I can. And then, what I can’t resist is what I end up doing. I think that’s served me pretty well.

“There were a couple of movies like that. The Fabulous Baker Boys was like that. That really jumped off the page for me. Every once in a while, the movie will transcend your own expectations. The Fabulous Baker Boys was one like that.”
