1
I spent a lot of time on YouTube looking at mentalism.
2
I want you to imagine a screen between you and I.
3
Robert Downey Jr. was in the mix for the role of the mentalist.
4
It's a chance for a great actor.
5
Did we cast the right guy?
6
You people ought to be ashamed of yourself.
7
I like playing the troublemaker, it's good.
8
Maybe you're happy instead.
9
Humor comes out of great tragedy.
10
Even if you forget your lines, I mean the audience will never know as long as you keep going.
11
So he makes a switch.
12
He goes to steal the real painting off the wall.
13
So frisky fr - no wait - So he makes the switch
14
Imagine you're an actor, you get the script and now you have to walk into an audition and impress the producers, writers and casting directors
15
So how do you do that?
16
A you learn your lines B listen and react well
17
Or C disregard the script and just do your own thing
18
What do you say we should do?
19
I think we should trust our instincts
20
Well if you pick C you probably enjoy unemployment unless you're Simon Baker.
21
No, Patrick Jane.
22
How did he pull it off?
23
How does breaking the one rule actors are never supposed to break land you the role of a lifetime?
24
Especially when you're not the guy they wanted.
25
But the show was very, very much just an idea at that time.
26
And there were a couple of people who were being talked about.
27
Robert Downey Jr. was in the mix prior to Iron Man.
28
Anything can happen on TV.
29
There were a few different options for Patrick Jane.
30
You know, who would best fit out of all the different auditioners and he would say yes.
31
The creator of the show was asked in an interview, when you first wrote the script, who did you picture for the role?
32
Simon Baker is great, but I would think a writer would imagine him.
33
You guys are mean.
34
Bruno Heller responded, I imagine the Cary Grant type of role.
35
This is Cary Grant, Hollywood's leading man during the golden age.
36
He was sophisticated, professional.
37
He was James Bond before James Bond and he starred in four Hitchcock thrillers.
38
Alfred Hitchcock spotted something in him.
39
That's who Bruno Heller pictured as Patrick Jane.
40
But Simon Baker wasn't quite Cary Grant.
41
How's up? In the...
42
He's not a Thor the God of Thunder type of hero.
43
And actually, Simon Baker never planned on being an actor.
44
He kinda just had the right look for it.
45
All you see is the hair and the teeth and the...
46
My goodness, he is that attractive in real life.
47
The grannies.. they're really hot for him.
48
Nobody has ever made Barbara lick her lips.
49
You have a gift.
50
It's not a gift.
51
I tell you, the heat now, that's not the heat of the sun, that's the heat of Simon Baker.
52
I clearly have a crush on him.
53
I just literally just told you I love him.
54
He's been called the sexiest man on TV.
55
Sexiest man on television?
56
I kind of thought it was a load of crap.
57
Simon Bacon's first acting role was in a commercial.
58
He got the role while waiting for a friend to audition when he himself was asked to audition for it.
59
He said, you should come in.
60
There's always a bunch of cute girls there.
61
A woman came in and said to me, have you signed in yet?
62
And I said, no, I'm not.
63
I'm just waiting for my friend.
64
And all the girls were like, yeah, you should go in.
65
And I went in and I got the commercial.
66
You don't seem that happy.
67
More than you believe, I'm happy.
68
He then spent half a decade in Australian television before his first American role in L .A.
69
Confidential, where he plays Matt Reynolds, a young naive actor who's exploited.
70
And by 2006, he was getting plenty of romantic comedy leads that really showed off his charm.
71
And in the same year, he would go on to star in The Devil Wears Prada.
72
Baby, it's done.
73
I'm not your baby.
74
So Simon had a problem.
75
Did Hollywood think he was only useful for his looks?
76
He was clearly being typecast.
77
And even Bruno Heller admitted he was worn over by his looks.
78
But there was a whole lot more to him beneath the surface.
79
It's a show about someone with a tragic past in his search for revenge.
80
The whole series is essentially triggered by this serial killer
81
Red John who killed Patrick James' family.
82
The pile was so serious.
83
So how does a guy whose actual nickname was Smiley
84
When I was in my under 8's football team
85
and he said we're gonna call you Smiley How does a guy like that become the lead of a revenge series?
86
You'd think the smile would be a problem.
87
A grieving man hunting a serial killer shouldn't be grinning through every scene.
88
But that's exactly what got him the role.
89
The interesting thing about tragedy is the contrast of how people live with it.
90
Smile while though your heart is breaking.
91
The circumstances that he's been through would entitle him to be bitter and twisted.
92
He's not necessarily an angry man that wants revenge, although he's deeply pained and deeply troubled.
93
He hides it because he has to.
94
So behind all of this cheekiness, there was a real sadness.
95
It's very important for me to have that balance, and that was a big part of forming the character.
96
Bruno Heller gave a lot of credit to Baker, saying, I think the show could have been successful with another actor of equal qualities,
97
but I think it would have been a much more ordinary show.
98
The character of Jane is what makes him different from most detectives.
99
Jane wanted to steer him away from being the I'm the leading man here.
100
Any other actor could have played this like a Cary Grant spy thriller.
101
But Simon Baker knew something about Cary Grant a lot of people didn't.
102
You see Cary Grant wasn't actually Cary Grant.
103
He was born in Bristol, England, made his own way to the US and into show business.
104
He was told you never make it without accident and he ended up with this thing that he's trying to sound American.
105
Dear, you're a con man.
106
Did Cary Grant play Cary Grant at home with you?
107
Oh sure, yes he did of course.
108
He was so graceful.
109
I mean you're very charming, you're very good at it, but you're just a con man.
110
Real people have emotions.
111
That's why I love acting.
112
It's just deception.
113
So you know, I'm really playing an actor who's playing an actor.
114
I'm a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude.
115
What?
116
My character was a fake psychic, so he was fraudulent, in essence, a con man.
117
So I love con characters.
118
I love the idea of a grift.
119
And a lot of what makes Patrick Jane Patrick Jane was just Simon Baker.
120
The car.
121
That was his pick.
122
But there was something about that car that was just so Patrick Jane.
123
The suit.
124
That was Simon too.
125
There definitely was a blue -gray palette that was saved for Jane.
126
The tea.
127
Red tea.
128
I mean, this man is so meticulous, Bruno Heller said in an interview.
129
He brings stuff to the role I hadn't imagined.
130
Bruno's script was tightly written, but it allowed room for interpretation of the character.
131
I'd like to be engaged in the process creatively.
132
For an actor who carries the show as much as Simon does, that they get a chance to actually mould the material from the start.
133
I said to Bruno when I first signed on, I said, I just, I want to make this an entertaining show.
134
I don't want to have fun doing it.
135
He's going to entertain us, hopefully.
136
And I think Simon plays that to the full.
137
He has a charm and a playfulness in himself.
138
It just fits you like a glove.
139
Yeah, it's weird, because it's not really me.
140
I'm not a psychic.
141
No such thing as psychics.
142
And I literally could feel, when we were shooting the pilot, I could feel my face getting red.
143
I was embarrassed with how sort of arrogant and cocky the guy was.
144
Turn that thing off or I will shove it down your throat.
145
If you watch him as an actor, he's very precise and graceful.
146
It's a huge job.
147
He's the star of the show.
148
Simon's obviously very quirky, very funny, very witty.
149
You don't know if he's just gonna fly off the handle in a second,
150
or if he's just gonna sit back and squeeze your hand under the table.
151
It's a little ridiculous at times, but it's all part of the fun in the game.
152
Like thieves in the night.
153
You will pay the ticket today.
154
I'm not gonna pay it.
155
Jane, stop.
156
Toughest role to cast beyond Patrick Jane was Lisbon.
157
Just on a technical level it's a very tough role because it's essentially the Watson to James Sherlock Holmes.
158
I remember being really scared when we started it.
159
But unlike Simon Baker, Robin Tunney grew up acting.
160
Well I acted when I was a child.
161
I was 11 months old, I don't even remember it.
162
Showbiz family.
163
Starring in many co -op movies before she landed the mentalist.
164
Doing TV is harder.
165
On movies they treat you kind of like you're a four -year -old
166
they're like your driver will be here at seven o 'clock to pick you up
167
and on tv they're like either at 4 30 in the
168
morning the pace is just really full on i'm tired boss
169
and she even appeared in episodes of low
170
and order the twilight zone prison break
171
and the pilot of house where she played a school teacher
172
which helped her prepare for dealing with patrick jane which one of you needs our help or is it both?
173
Actually, we just want to...
174
Oh, darling, please.
175
It's been starting to worry both of us.
176
Right, darling?
177
You know, he's like the naughty three -year -old and he's driving me crazy.
178
Seeing her struggle there is part of the fun and the pathos of that character.
179
And when it came to the role of Teresa Lisbon, they loved her audition.
180
Casting Robin, everyone had their heart set on Robin.
181
That fear when you're going to bed
182
that you're either going to be a complete failure or that audition can change your life tomorrow.
183
And although her portrayal of a federal agent is very realistic, she wasn't used to it.
184
I mean, when I started the show, I hated being in charge and I hated having to tell people what to do.
185
I had never done anything like that before.
186
I generally don't.
187
I haven't played anybody who's really employed.
188
I think it's pretty fun to be a woman
189
and be the boss and also not have the character be played like a man.
190
Ordering people around and trying to have sort of an authoritative air
191
when you're looking up at somebody is really difficult to do.
192
Especially if I was in a scene with Robin.
193
There were Rigsby Apple boxes specifically for Lisbon and Rigsby seats.
194
Watching Robin learn to do that.
195
And watching the character learn to do that was a big part of the charm of the character.
196
She wasn't a tough cop, she was someone who was trying to be a tough cop, which is a much harder job.
197
And then I got, you know, quite comfortable with it.
198
I have absolutely no problem never saying please or thank you, not even addressing my subordinates by name.
199
Sometimes bosses have to turn a blind eye to things.
200
Sometimes they have to engage and sometimes they have to step back.
201
Obviously we can't do that, but that's what I would tell you to do if we weren't ordered to stay away from this case.
202
Acting and doing well at it is about feeling safe.
203
And in order to feel safe, you have to trust the people around you.
204
You really do become incredibly, incredibly close.
205
It's become like a family.
206
It's been such a huge part of my life for a really long time.
207
It's longer than high school.
208
It's longer than college.
209
And I've come to depend on Simon so much as a friend.
210
It's an intense working relationship and friendship.
211
You know, somebody to...
212
Sorry.
213
What are you doing?
214
Bye, darling.
215
Have fun today.
216
Yeah, I'm done.
217
I know, I'm jealous.
218
That's why I said have fun.
219
You know, I don't know what's going on between you and Lisbon, but...
220
Nothing's going on.
221
Right.
222
They have, over the years, developed a very close, friendly, platonic relationship that kept their mutual attraction in suspense.
223
They could never address the feelings they had for each other.
224
An unfortunate shipping title.
225
We had Jisbon.
226
Jisbon.
227
They're meant to be.
228
Come on.
229
Thankfully Bruno crafted in such a way that it really kind of gelled pretty easily.
230
Love is crazy I guess.
231
No it isn't.
232
You should seek psychiatric help.
233
Imagine working in finance.
234
You're making your company millions of dollars.
235
But then one day you walk past an acting school.
236
And you decide to sign up for an acting class on a whim.
237
I was passing by that said beginning acting classes
238
and i decided oh why not ran in there on my way to work
239
i signed up tim kang aka kimbo cho was selling stocks
240
and he was good at it but one day sitting at his desk he realized
241
that he wasn't thinking about stocks anymore
242
and i remember going through my othello monologue in my head
243
and i accidentally sold 500 shares of a stock it was
244
that point i kind of realized my head is somewhere else
245
tim would go in to get his first tv role in the soprano small party chapelle show
246
The Office and Mum and then his biggest audition yet, The Mentalist.
247
I remembered probably, I mean, I feel like I went in like four or five times.
248
But here's the funny part.
249
One of the things that he hated most about office life was wearing a suit and tie every day.
250
And then he lands a part where he has to wear a suit and tie every day.
251
Was this your first series regular role?
252
Yes.
253
I think I was just learning the ropes.
254
I was so green and I wanted to learn.
255
Were you nervous?
256
I had no nerves because I knew that script, that pilot script so well.
257
And Cho was a lot different in the pilot script.
258
Kimball was, it was Kendall.
259
Originally it was Kendall Cho.
260
Me, I came up with a two -page bio for the character and I submitted that to Bruno.
261
That a lot of the stuff that I suggested, he kept.
262
So he started out in gangs.
263
You know, the background, his military background.
264
He was in the army and then he's found his place in law enforcement.
265
Tim is very interesting because he learns up on the police work
266
and he's interested in what is authentic and what's not authentic.
267
My brother's done nothing.
268
You scumbags haven't got the stones to come after me.
269
We scumbags are holding your brother
270
because we have physical evidence linking him to the crime
271
and potential motive in that he states that whenever you weren't around he was banging your wife like a big bass drum.
272
Big bass drum.
273
That was the perfect line for me to say it in a deadpan way.
274
And when I got that laugh I was like okay.
275
I can make one phone call and your career is toast.
276
That's impressive.
277
The best I can get with one call is a pizza.
278
Cho is an iconic character.
279
To this day, it's the character that I enjoy playing the most.
280
Family members that I would see once a year at Christmas or Thanksgiving or something would be like, Don't you kill Cho!
281
If you do anything Cho, I'm gonna find you.
282
It's weird, my parents said the same thing.
283
They never said anything about Rigsby.
284
Stop moving your mouth when you read.
285
It's really off -putting.
286
the most all -american guy on the team is welsh rigsby's british
287
he studied english at oxford i came from an academic background
288
which i i did a very good job of hiding as rigsby in his very first audition
289
he landed the part in a hollywood blockbuster starring alongside brad pitt my first job i did the movie troy
290
which helped him land the role in the mentalist i was the first person cast in the show.
291
You go in, you're part of a big cattle call,
292
then maybe that cattle call gets a little smaller and then you're up against a few serious players.
293
Then they'll bring in someone who you're like, oh no, I've seen that guy and he's great and that's the person you're testing against.
294
As soon as Owen was cast, did you start doing a dance?
295
It was a bit more...
296
I was very happy to for once to not have to do
297
that because you know it's just another opportunity for someone to go I did be cast the right guy.
298
Don't panic.
299
No I am because I'm gonna lose my job.
300
My name is Asian Rigsby.
301
Original name for Wayne Rigsby was Wayne Gilzeen.
302
Rigsby's an interesting case.
303
He saw the humor in the character immediately.
304
If you're dealing with these horrors on a day -to -day basis,
305
the only way you can get an emotional distance is to actually regard them sort of with a little bit of humor.
306
Yes, he might have been a bit goofy, and when it comes to being business time, he still gets it done.
307
Just because of his size alone, makes a good presence, makes a good law enforcement officer.
308
Six foot four athletic.
309
For some reason, I ended up being the guy who was always running after people.
310
Do you want to?
311
No. I remember it coming from, I think, Simon saying, I don't want to run.
312
So we did the running.
313
He does the mentalizing.
314
I spend the large majority of my career playing Americans.
315
So one of the writers found out which words were hardest for Owen to pronounce like water or daughter
316
The writers decided to start deliberately putting them in his line
317
I'm five episodes into my new gig as an American
318
So you can imagine my delight when I get a line
319
that says Cara Palmer's car alarm Cara Palmer's car alarm I can imagine how hard
320
that might be for Brit to hit the hard R's What do you mean by that?
321
One of the most beautiful things you see
322
when you talk to cops is that the genuine love and the genuine unity that you get sometimes between partners.
323
I miss going to work with Owen every day.
324
He was a joy to work with.
325
Joe, you saved my life.
326
A great actor.
327
The bromance, I guess, of Rigsby and Joe was something
328
that we both loved playing and that was only further informed and reinforced by our own friendship.
329
And even after
330
The Mentalist, Owen and Tim are still good friends.
331
And they even have their own podcast together called The TV Police Podcast.
332
This video wouldn't even be possible without the insights that I got from their podcast.
333
Go and subscribe to them.
334
I'll leave a link in the description.
335
When you spend this much time in a certain job with people, you are literally a second family.
336
I remember being really nervous, which was sort of unusual for me.
337
It was really quick.
338
The casting and filming for this was really quick.
339
I felt like I totally blew the audition.
340
I felt like my nerves got the better of me.
341
When I walked out, I was like, there's just no way.
342
Like, it's just not.
343
So when I got the call, I was very pleasantly surprised.
344
I do remember
345
Grace was originally named Melody.
346
She was just a rookie.
347
I'm the rookie.
348
Anyone who spends time in law enforcement is going to get
349
that youthful idealism knocked out of them and losing some of her naivety as it goes along.
350
I feel pretty good, actually.
351
Starting to enjoy shooting people.
352
Whoa, calm down, Jamal.
353
Don't pull out the nine.
354
She has some anger issues, I would say.
355
Anyone of a striking appearance, anyone who makes an impact when they walk into the room, so you pay attention to that person.
356
You must be Van Pelt.
357
Pleasure.
358
Patrick Jane.
359
Oh hi!
360
A little flirtation between
361
Jane and Van Pelt in the initial episode.
362
Yes!
363
There was a question mark of whether they were going to make that the love interest.
364
There was enough sort of audience and network studio feedback that the Van Pelt -Rigsby storyline, Lisbon -Jane storyline feels better.
365
Her big character trait was that kind of blind faith.
366
It really drove her choices.
367
She was meant to be a counterpoint to Jane's cynicism.
368
We can't even touch the scumbag.
369
The world's full of scumbags we can't touch.
370
He couldn't be more opposite.
371
The idea of a godless world versus a god world.
372
Do you relate to that?
373
Do you have any sort of...
374
I do, yeah, I do.
375
I mean, I'm Christian and became born again when I was 13.
376
I love that that was also informed by your own belief.
377
Any new agent that's coming in, you need to put yourself in a position where it's recognized what your capabilities are oh yeah
378
that's my favorite saying that's my favorite saying we all remember how van pelt could decompile a program before ai
379
but amanda wasn't quite like her character some of the computer stuff i don't think
380
that was scripted it wasn't on the page
381
that van pelt was like a computer geek
382
and there happened to be like a laptop there
383
and in one of the scenes for the life of me i could not multitask typing
384
and saying my words like i started having a panic attack
385
if just keep hitting pee over and over like they're gonna notice.
386
Bopity bop bop bop bop bop.
387
I don't know, I feel really blessed that we were a part of this.
388
I think the more time away I have from it, the more appreciative I am of the time that we all spent together
389
and just what a great show that we had an opportunity to make.
390
That's all folks!

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
