Everything from trading lines of a Shakespearean sonnet with Helen Mirren, to getting Paul McCartney to talk about his mother’s death (by mentioning his own loss of his father at a young age), instead of the same old story of how “Yesterday” came to him in a dream.

He’s like a therapist, getting his subjects to open up and access some real feelings in front of millions of people.

Maybe Keanu was an off night.
