Anthony Hopkins' Alcohol-Induced Biblical "Trips"
September 23, 2005 2:01 p.m.
Los Angeles, CA (AHN) - Sir Anthony Hopkins says he became badly addicted to alcohol, to the point of suffering severe hallucinations.
The Oscar winner has been clean and sober 30-years after battling alcoholism. During his darker period, in the early 1970s, Hopkins drink of choice was strong Mexican tequila, which he claims induced strange side-effects.
Hopkins says, "I was really sort of on a prolonged acid trip. I saw things and had peculiar quasi-religious experiences. I thought I was John The Baptist, and I would talk to the sea at Malibu and the sea would talk back to me. It was weird."
