  • Brian Cox is now best known for his roles in Hollywood films like MANHUNTER. But he keeps in touch with his stage roots. Here he develops his Shakespeare suzuki method, with a toddler soliloquy from 30 month old Theo.

    Mr. Cox ~ "To be or not to be? That is the question. " Theo ~ "Yeah. It is!!" I love it.

    Brian C: “To be or not to be; that is the question.”
    Toddler: “Yes”

    Just wonderful, the both of them.
    The wee lad has an amazing eagerness, but the way Brian got him involved and interested by using the hand gestures and tone of his voice, and also to continue even when it seemed like Theo wasn't paying attention (I'm sure many adults would have tried to grab his attention or force him to focus), when it turned out he obviously was still interested just he figured he could still listen while looking out the window.
    Pure class.

    Wow. That little boy sure is processing a lot of syllables.
    There are people that have actually never heard of Brian Cox??? Brian Cox is awesome.

    Now, the great thing is to see Brian Cox outside his acting career (movies, interviews, etc). So not only he is a terrific actor, but seems to be quite a wonderful human being as well.

    I believe Shakespeare was considering including "This is a book with jigsaws in it, Brian" in the soliloquy until the last draft

    Who’s here after reading Brian’s recent Town & Country interview where he brings up this video while complaining about Jeremy Strong’s method acting?

    I love around 1:15, Brian is trying to figure out how to teach the next phrase and his thinking out loud is so captivating to Theo that it makes him want to learn even more. :D

    This is a good example of how tv advertising works with adults ( and children )... drilling but gentle repitition. The message eventualy sinks in and stays there.

    As a dad and film maker I can watch this over and over again! The kid reminds me so much of my eldest when he was little and Brian Cox is such a good sport! The kid saying "This is a book wiv jigsaws in it, Bwian!" makes me laugh every time!

    That is cute. I am glad I was able to see that. Mr Cox seems to have the correct patience, allowing the boy to go off on his own, not being rigid, but somehow keeping him interested.

    Simply delightful.
    Some of my high school students are struggling with Shakespeare. I will use this for encouragement.
    Children are such sponges for language as toddlers. They learn so much, so fast, because their brains are wired to imitate the people around them. That said, Theo appears to be an exceptional child.

  • @wiliqueen

    Now, see, THAT's how we prevent them being afraid of Shakespeare in high school! Well done.

    This is why it'd be awesome to have Brian Cox for a grandfather. Course, as a parent, I'd be worried he'd start quoting from Super Troopers or Adaptation. "...and why the F&%^ are you wasting MY precious two hours..."
