00:00Congratulations on this movie!
00:02What was it about this movie where you were like, I have to make this?
00:06And what about Kurosawa inspired you?
00:08Well, I became a student of Kurosawa while I was an NYU graduate film school.
00:13That's why I saw Raj Shimon.
00:15That's why I saw many of those samurai films.
00:18That's why I saw High and Low.
00:20So Denzel was the one.
00:23He had gotten the property and he sent it to me.
00:27He said, Spike, read the script, if you like it, let's go.
00:30I read it right away, called him up, I think the next day he said, let's go.
00:35It happened like that.
00:36You said that this is your last possible team up with Denzel, why is that?
00:41I said that before but I got my mind right.
00:45I'm open to work with Denzel Washington and this not be the last film of a dynamic duo,
00:53D and Lee.
00:54Well, this was a 19 year hiatus.
00:56So what was this reunion like?
00:59I did not know it was 19 years.
01:02The journalists told me.
01:03I did not know it was 19 years.
01:06It's been that long.
01:07What was this homecoming like?
01:09It's been great.
01:11And Friday the world gets to see it.
01:14Finally, the tagline of this movie is, all money ain't good money.
01:18What would be an example of that, or bad money, quote unquote?
01:25Take it away.
01:26Take it away.
01:27Take it away.
01:28I do not have to tell the audience what the tagline, which is the tagline, all money ain't good money.
01:38We know what that is, and we know that sometimes in life we have to make that choice, and hopefully
01:45we make the right choice.
01:46We know that it is so important.
01:48You're right.
01:49You're right.
01:50I'm sorry.
01:51You're right.
01:52You're right.
01:52You're right.
01:53You're right.
