-
-I like you being in New York City.
-
-I do. -Because I always think
-
of your movie "Serendipity"... -Aww.
-
-...with John Cusack. -That's right, yeah.
-
[ Cheers and applause ] -And you were fantastic in that.
-
-Thanks.
-
-You just did something recently I thought was very funny.
-
Were you in Toronto? Or, no, were --
-
-I was. I was at the Toronto Film Festival.
-
And I hate to ruin it for everybody,
-
but some of "Serendipity" was not shot in New York.
-
So, first of all, it was August.
-
And we were pretending it was Christmas and ice skating,
-
and we were sweating, so that -- I'm ruining the movie.
-
Sorry. -No, no, that's movie-making.
-
-And then, the insides were mostly in Toronto.
-
So, I was leaving --
-
I was late for the airport and leaving the festival.
-
I found myself in the elevator going, "Wait a second.
-
I've been in this elevator before.
-
This elevator's very familiar," which never --
-
I'm not constantly saying that in elevators.
-
I've never said it before. [ Laughter ]
-
And I realized it was the one that, you know,
-
we had this very romantic moment of,
-
"Well, let's press floors and see what floor we end up on
-
and if it's the same one,
-
we're meant to be together, which is such a load of [bleep]
-
I can't even imagine. [ Laughter ]
-
-No, it's romantic. What are you talking about?
-
-I mean, what a terrible idea, really.
-
But anyway, I realized it was that,
-
and I go, "Oh! Even though I'm late for the airport,
-
I'd love to reenact this."
-
And the only person there was this porter who had our luggage
-
and had never seen the movie or knew anything about me at all.
-
And I just said, "Look, could you just say this
-
when I say this?" and he said, "Absolutely not."
-
And I said -- [ Laughter ]
-
I said, "Could you, please? I'm begging you."
-
So, he was a real sport in the end,
-
and he actually did it.
-
I mean Cusack should watch out, 'cause he crushed it.
-
-Really? -But he did a good job, yeah.
-
-We do have a clip. -Do you?
-
Yes, here is Kate Beckinsale re-creating a scene
-
from "Serendipity" with this porter.
-
Check this out.
-
-Get in, take a breath,
-
and then when the door closes, hit a button.
-
-I don't understand what you're saying.
-
-You don't have to understand.
-
You just have to have faith.
-
-What?
-
-Destiny.
-
-Stop bothering me. I gotta work.
-
I'm gonna call my manager.
-
[ Laughter, cheers, applause ]
-
-He's great! -He's the best ever!
-
-He is fantastic! -He was such a sport.
-
I'm so glad we get the opportunity
-
to tell him thank you.
-
-I heard this thing about you.
-
I don't know if it's true or not.
-
But I heard that you have a very good fake sneeze.
-
-It is quite good, yeah. [ Laughter ]
-
-Well, now, how did you know that you could do a fake sneeze?
-
-Well, I was really of jealous of people who had allergies
-
when I was at school. [ Laughter ]
-
-What? -I didn't have them.
-
I didn't believe -- I believe it now,
-
'cause I have every allergy going,
-
but at school, I didn't have them.
-
So people would sneeze, you know, 200 or 300 times
-
and then get sent out of a science class.
-
-Yeah. -And I had nothing.
-
So I sort of worked up a really convincing sneeze
-
and then tested it out.
-
Hey, presto -- outside I was, doing something more fun.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
-So could you give us a taste of what a fake sneeze would be?
-
Could you do it for us? -Yeah. You want me to do it?
-
-Yeah. -Okay.
-
-You guys want to hear it? [ Cheers and applause ]
-
-It's really good.
-
[ Coughs ] Okay. Ready?
-
-Yeah.
-
-[ Sneezes ]
-
[ Cheers and applause ]
-
-Oh, my God. Wait. That's actually --
-
-That's good, isn't it?
-
-That is fantastic. -Yeah.
-
'Cause I give this sort of illusion
-
that there's matter in there, and there isn't.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
-This -- You've got to teach, like, a master class on this.
-
Wait. So, I go like...
-
[ Sneezes ]
-
-Nearly, but you've got to make it wetter.
-
-Wetter. -You've got to use that clacker,
-
that punch-bag thing at the back of your throat
-
to make it slightly wetter.
-
-[ Sneeze ]
-
[ Laughter ] That sounded gross.
-
-Commit. Commit harder.
-
-[ Sneezes ] No.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
[ Sneezes ] I can't do it.
-
-That's nearly good. You just got to try it...
-
-Just do it one more time. It really is good.
-
-[ Sneezing ]
-
[ Laughter and applause ]
-
-Dude, that is un-- that is unbelievable.
-
-It's quite good, isn't it?
-
-Is that how you sneeze in real life?
-
-No. -No.
-
-No. I'm not allowed to sneeze.
-
-Are you one of these people that go like...
-
-No. I love it when people do that.
-
-I do not like that at all. -I do.
-
-That freaks me out, 'cause I feel like
-
it's got to release somewhere. You know?
-
-Yeah, I know what you mean. -Something's gonna happen.
-
Like, your brains gonna -- Pffk! -Yeah. Eyes come out.
-
No, no. But I like -- especially when men do it like that.
-
-And they go, "God bless you."
-
-I know, but when a man does that, it's endearing,
-
the little sneeze. -The watermelon, yeah.
-
-Yeah. No, my real sneeze.
-
I'm banned from doing it at home.
-
My daughter says -- My daughter --
-
The thing is, I heard -- maybe one of you know --
-
either an orgasm is an eighth of a sneeze
-
or a sneeze is an eighth of an orgasm.
-
Which way is it? That's true.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
Anyway...
-
-Well, we just faked it for a good 30 seconds there.
-
Wait. Are you really -- -That's an actual medical fact.
-
That's a fact. That's definitely true.
-
I just can't fully --
-
I don't know which way around it is.
-
-What? -It's true.
-
Anyway, if you can't -- [ Laughter ]
-
Well, I like it. It's sort of a nose orgasm.
-
That sometimes -- I don't get to sneeze very often.
-
-You called it a nose orgasm. -It is.
-
-That's not true at all.
-
That's not a medical term at all.
-
-A nosegasm. -It's not a nosegasm.
-
-It is. Well, for me, it is.
-
-For you it is. -I have a very sensitive nose.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
Like a Labrador puppy. -Holy moly.
-
-Anyway, so I like to really
-
open up all the flanges and barrels.
-
'Cause I don't sneeze very --
-
-I really don't -- really, but I'm kind of intrigued.
-
How do you really sneeze, then?
-
-Well, if I'm at home -- I wouldn't do this in public --
-
but if I'm at home I like to really
-
kind of open my mouth as wide as I can...
-
[ Laughter ]
-
...and sort of scream.
-
♪♪
-
-Oh, my gosh. All right.
-
Wow. And then you just go for it.
-
-I just really let it flow, yeah.
-
[ Laughter ]
-
-We're good. Yeah, I got you, okay.
-
Now, let's talk about your series --
-
Let's talk about your series on Amazon, please.
-
"The Widow." -I'm sweating now.
-
-I know. I'm sweating.
-
Trust me, me too. All right.
-
Now I'm thinking of the person that sneezes like...
-
Yeah. -And what they're hiding.
-
[ Laughter ] You know.
-
-Let's talk about "The Widow." -Okay, let's.
-
-This is a -- I like the premise of this.
-
-Yeah, no one sneezes in it.
-
-No, but you play a character
-
whose husband dies in a plane crash.
-
-Yeah. -And it's tragic.
-
But then what happens is, you see your husband.
-
-Yeah, she thinks she sees like a second of him
-
on some news footage in Africa and obviously freaks out.
-
-That's the premise right there, and it's fantastic.
-
-So, every terrible thing that could happen to a person
-
either happens to her or nearly happens to her.
-
-Yeah. -Apart from, like,
-
a colonoscopy, which isn't that dramatic.
-
But almost everything else happens.
-
-But she's chasing and trying to find him.
-
-Yeah, she goes out to Africa and tries to find him
-
and then sort of gets weird messages to leave,
-
and it's all -- You know, it's a lot.
-
-It's well done.
