One of the most memorable scenes from this year's Oscar-nominated films comes toward the end of American Hustle, when Bradley Cooper is absolutely ecstatic about a break in his case in American Hustle, The Jheri-curled actor busts out the champagne and cigars, celebrating with his co-workers and dry humping a melancholy Louis C.K. much to the delight of anyone with a heart.

Now, though, the scene takes on new meaning thanks to a video uploaded to YouTube that features portions of a conversation Louis C.K. had on The Stephen Merchant Show five years ago and a clip of a young Bradley Cooper asking Sean Penn for advise 15 years ago.

Basically, Merchant asks Louis about the acting trade and the comedian responds by mocking the idea of a young, aspiring actor asking Sean Penn a question on Inside the Actor's Studio. Then, there's a clip of Bradley Cooper asking Sean Penn a question on Inside the Actor's Studio.

The whole thing is accidentally hilarious, especially considering the success of mammoth proportions that both men have experienced since each conversation actually took place. [h/t Reddit]
