Brolin Blames Booze after Berserk Outbursts

Last night at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards, actor Josh Brolin accepted the Best Supporting Actor award from presenter and Milk co-star Sean Penn. After Penn teased him, he launched into a bizarre attack on Russell Crowe, calling him an "Asshole". He then proceeded to say "Fuck you, Ben. God I hate that motherfucker" to NY Times reviewer Ben Brantley. We hear the audience was stunned at the tirade.

Of course, Brolin later apologized, blaming booze, along with the "ambiance" of the ceremony, for the outburst. Yeah right, blame it on the booze!
