Geraldine Viswanathan says she was overwhelmed at first on the set of 'Bad Education,' but was soon charmed by co-star Allison Janney and the actors who made up the supporting cast
. Based on true events, Viswanathan plays an intrepid student journalist named Rachel Bhargava, who exposes the corruption at the center of the Roslyn school district in Long Island, New York. Led by superintendent, Dr. Frank Tossone , and assistant superintendent, Pam Gluckin , Viswanathan’s character went toe to toe with the veteran actors’ characters in several standout scenes.
“I did all my scenes with Allison in one day, so the lead-up to my ‘Allison Day’ was extremely daunting and nerve-racking,” Viswanathan explains. “During one take, Cory told her, privately, to really yell at me when she tells me to ‘stop it’ in response to my prying… It was a real thrill to get yelled at by Allison Janney.”, Viswanathan elaborates on her many showdowns with Jackman and Janney’s characters, meeting herhad on her life and career.Good! I feel very fortunate.
I think my audition scene was the first scene — when Rachel is looking for Pam and I end up speaking to Frank . Actually, it might’ve been that scene as the second scene. Good guess! I think you just reminded me.I didn’t! I guess they just took a chance on me. I didn’t do any kind of screen test or chemistry read. The first time I met Hugh was at the table read. That was fun, but I was very nervous. He just instantly got rid of that.
I definitely did a lot of research on the whole scandal and that time period. The writer, Mike Makowsky, and I took a little road trip to Long Island, and he showed me around because he’s from Roslyn. He also went to that school, so he has a very close relationship with that event. It was really helpful actually because obviously I’m not from New York or Long Island. It was really fun to get an idea of the kind of community, lifestyle and people there.
That could go either way, but I think it was more that she feels he was overqualified and that she wouldn’t want him to settle or take a step down in any way, especially after his own scandal that he went through. Maybe it’s a mixture of both, or maybe she just doesn’t want him at her school.
