Here’s Julianne Moore acting for tips on the streets of New York

Would you give Julianne Moore a dollar to perform a monologue from “The Big Lebowski”? Of course you would. And she's finally profiting from it.

On TruTV's “Billy on the Street,” host Billy Eichner led the Academy Award-winning actress down the streets of New York City to make some extra money. Pedestrians opened up their wallets to hear damning monologues from “The Kids Are All Right,” “The Hours,” and “Magnolia.”

Could there be a more perfect ending to this video than a gay passerby noting, “Spider-Man doesn't have an Academy Award!” I hope Julianne brings this show to LA and is prepared to recite some wisdom from “Safe,” “Short Cuts,” and that scene “Body of Evidence” where she slaps Madonna.
