00:00From Hollywood, it's Jimmy Kimmel Live!
00:04Tonight, Rachel McAdams, Judd Apatow,
00:08and music from The Temper Friend with the Kletos!
00:13And now, Jimmy Kimmel Live!
00:31Hello, everyone. You're very kind. I'm Jimmy. I am the host.
00:36Thank you for watching. Thank you for joining us in Hollywood, California.
00:42And by the way, if you need anything, please do not hesitate to let us know.
00:49And by us, I mean Guillermo, all right?
00:51Hey, I hope you had a nice long weekend on your phone
00:54looking at photos of how much happier we were in 2016.
00:59There are some great football games over the weekend.
01:01In the NFL, we are now down to the final four teams
01:04that will have to give their Super Bowl rings to the president
01:07if they were good for them.
01:10Yesterday, hundreds of thousands of white people celebrated
01:13the legacy of Martin Luther King by going skiing,
01:16just as Dr. King would have wanted it.
01:19You know, Donald Trump also had a dream,
01:21but his was about Ivanka in the tube top.
01:26I have a confession to make.
01:28I spent the whole day yesterday judging Trump
01:31on the content of his character and the color of his skin.
01:34Neither verdict was good.
01:37What a weekend for Trump.
01:38You really almost have to hand it to him.
01:40He can do so much damage in one three-day weekend.
01:43I don't know if anybody has ever done more.
01:46Every country hates us now. It's official.
01:48All of them hate us.
01:49We are the Omarosa of the world.
01:52He is so angry about getting snubbed for the Nobel Peace Prize.
01:57He may literally declare war against Scandinavia,
02:00the happiest people on Earth.
02:02But not anymore.
02:04On Sunday, Trump sent the following threatening text message
02:07to the Norwegian Prime Minister.
02:09It said,
02:09Dear Jonas,
02:10Considering your country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize
02:13for having stopped eight wars plus,
02:16I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of peace,
02:19although it will always be predominant,
02:21but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America.
02:25I've done more for NATO than any other person since its founding,
02:29and now NATO should do something for the United States.
02:32The world is not secure unless we have complete and total control of Greenland.
02:37Thank you, President DJT.
02:39That's right.
02:40He's done more for NATO than any person ever,
02:43and now he's going to destroy it.
02:45He's Sharknado.
02:46Now, there are so many embarrassing and deeply sad and insecure things about that text.
02:53I really could spend the whole night dissecting it,
02:55but how about him admitting this in writing?
02:58Our president sent a text to the leader of another country,
03:01which, by the way, is already a weird thing.
03:03The idea is just typing out a bitchy little message to the Prime Minister of Norway,
03:07a message that explicitly says,
03:10Since you didn't give me the peace prize,
03:12I'm thinking about taking Greenland away.
03:15It's unheard of.
03:16There's nothing to compare it to in the history of humankind.
03:18This is, I mean, it's like we armed a real housewife with nuclear weapons.
03:23This man is crashing the plane because the stewardess didn't bring him a bag of peanuts.
03:28Okay?
03:29This is what happens to children who get anything they want.
03:32This is how they grow up.
03:33President Veruca Salt.
03:35I want Greenland!
03:36I want it now!
03:38All because he didn't get a little medal around his neck.
03:41He's a child.
03:42His parents let him stay up late last night,
03:44and he posted a lot of nonsense.
03:45At 1am, he posted this image of himself, little Marco, and J.D. Vance colonizing Greenland.
03:53I like this because even in an AI-generated image, J.D. and Marco are like,
03:57Jesus Christ, what are we doing here?
04:02Let me just say, I don't know how to...
04:04You understand that we are on the verge of going to war over the Nobel Prize for peace.
04:12The irony doesn't get more irony-y than that.
04:18It's, we may be invading Europe again, another D-Day, except this time the D stands for dumb.
04:23This, I feel like maybe Trump was embarrassed that his text to the Norwegian Prime Minister went public,
04:28because last night, Fardy Supreme started posting screenshots of private messages from other leaders to him,
04:35including the President of France, Emmanuel Macron.
04:38It's so interesting to read these, because they really do tiptoe around this maniac.
04:42Macron wrote,
04:43My friend, we are totally in line on Syria.
04:45We can do great things on Iran.
04:47I do not understand what you are doing on Greenland.
04:51That makes 8.1 billion of us, friend.
04:54Trump screen-grabbed that and posted it.
04:57Why? I don't know.
04:58Does he think this makes him look good?
05:00Every one of these texts reads like they're talking to a chimp with a hand grenade.
05:05Buddy, everyone loves you. You're such a good boy.
05:08Just, why don't you put that down so we can talk this out, okay?
05:11This could get bad. People could die because of this nonsense.
05:15Europe's not going to let us stroll in and take Greenland without a fight,
05:19and the Norwegian government, they don't have anything to do with awarding the Peace Prize.
05:24This is an organization within their country.
05:26This would be like if Trump bombed Mexico because Taco Bell didn't put enough cheese on his Crunchwrap Supreme.
05:33Danish troops are now going into Greenland.
05:36They say they're going in to protect Greenland from Russia, but we know why they're there.
05:41These people are our allies.
05:42These are the people who make our Ozempic, for God's sake.
05:47The people of Greenland aren't too keen on this idea either.
05:49There were major anti-Trump protests over the weekend.
05:52Now, Greenland only has 57,000 people in the whole country, and they all showed up for this.
06:00Not only did they show up, they made hats that say, make America go away.
06:09This is how you know, historically, you know it's getting serious when they start making merch.
06:15Trump's latest tantrum caused the Dow to drop 870 points today.
06:20In other words, you all lost thousands of dollars in your 401Ks today because Trump didn't get a necklace.
06:26King Gorge had a press conference this morning to reflect on the one-year anniversary of his presidency.
06:31It was a very low energy, but very long affair.
06:34He spoke for an hour and 44 minutes, longer than the Minecraft movie, and to tout his many achievements, he
06:41brought visual aids.
06:42Here's, uh, the book on accomplishments.
06:46Here is the, uh, look at this.
06:50These are all, each line is something that we did.
06:53Nobody did that before.
06:55And it's big stuff, too.
06:58Look, we have the hottest country in the world.
07:04Hit Marco Rubio right on the head.
07:08Who throws things?
07:09Like, imagine doing that.
07:11You pick it up.
07:12This is the kind of behavior you only see from a boy who grew up with a butler.
07:16Trump said God is very proud of the job he's done so far, which did not get as big a
07:22laugh as it should have.
07:23And, of course, he whined repeatedly.
07:25He whined again and again and again about not getting that Nobel Prize.
07:30You should have gotten the Nobel Prize for each war, but I don't say that.
07:34I say millions and millions of people.
07:36And don't let anyone tell you that Norway doesn't control the shots, okay?
07:41It's in Norway.
07:43Norway controls the shots.
07:44They'll say, we have nothing to do with it.
07:47Uh, it's a joke.
07:48They've lost such prestige.
07:50Got all, that's why I have such respect for Maria doing what she did.
07:54She said, I don't deserve the Nobel Prize.
07:56He does.
07:57When she got it, they named, they said, wow, that's amazing.
08:00I thought President Trump would get it.
08:02President Trump deserves it.
08:03He ended up eight wars.
08:05He ended them up.
08:06All eight.
08:07Some presidents would have ended the wars down.
08:10Not Trump.
08:10Ended them up.
08:12Ended eight wars.
08:13And so he wants eight Nobel Peace Prizes.
08:16Or one 12-piece McNuggets.
08:18Whichever he can get first.
08:20Trump also, for the first time, expressed a measure of sympathy for Renee Good, the woman
08:28who was murdered in Minneapolis.
08:29He now concedes that her death was a tragedy, but not necessarily for the reason you might
08:34hope.
08:34I felt horribly when I was told that the young woman who was had the tragedy.
08:42It's a tragedy.
08:43It's a horrible thing.
08:43Everybody would say it.
08:44Ice would say the same thing.
08:47But when I learned her parents and her father in particular is like, I hope he still is, but
08:54I don't know, was a tremendous Trump fan.
08:58He was all for Trump.
08:59Loved Trump.
09:02And, you know, it's terrible.
09:04I was told that by a lot of people.
09:07They said, oh, he loves you.
09:09He was, I hope, I hope he still feels that way.
09:12I don't know.
09:13It's a hard situation.
09:14But her father was a tremendous, and parents were tremendous Trump fans.
09:20It's so sad.
09:21It just happens.
09:23It's terrible.
09:24We're so sorry for your loss, Mr. President.
09:26I know how hard it is to lose a fan and to lose two of them.
09:29Wow.
09:30He always knows just the wrong thing to say.
09:33The Pentagon has reportedly mobilized 1,500 soldiers for potential deployment to Minneapolis,
09:40which that's what we voted for.
09:41A war with Europe and troops at the Mall of America, right?
09:45Maybe even a civil war.
09:46Get those cameras ready, Ken Burns.
09:48You might have to do this one live.
09:49This little detail tells you all you need to know about what's going on in Minnesota right now.
09:54These ice holes.
09:54Last week, a group of them ate at a Mexican restaurant.
09:57When they were finished, they arrested the people who served them the meal.
10:01Isn't that lovely?
10:01This is a guy running point for the Border Patrol.
10:04It's Trump's top guy, Greg Bovino, guarding that dangerous perimeter between us and Manitoba.
10:10Here he is being Mr. Tough Guy.
10:12Hey, quick man!
10:18Out of the road!
10:19Out of the road!
10:20Out of the road, now!
10:22Coward chicken s**t!
10:26Anyway, you know, this is not our Nobel Prize winner for poetry.
10:34Coward chicken s**t would make a pretty good hat, right?
10:38CCFF.
10:39I have a theory, and I think this might explain a lot.
10:43Trump is jealous that all the shows on the History Channel are about Hitler and not him.
10:48And, you know, I mentioned today is the first anniversary of Donald Jumanji Trump's second run as president.
10:56Exactly one year ago today, he declared that America's decline is over and his steep mental decline began.
11:03The 47th president of the United States, Donald J. Trump.
11:14I'm very proud of this Gulf of America.
11:16I love Tesla making mice transgender condoms for Hamas.
11:23The late, great Hannibal Lecter.
11:24He's a fictional character. He's actually not.
11:27Acid, well, let's see how we say that.
11:32Acid, I'm...
11:33Minifin.
11:33Don't take Tylenol.
11:34Don't take it.
11:36Don't take Tylenol.
11:38I'd give it to Elon as a presentation from our country.
11:42Musk continuing to fire back late today.
11:45Time to drop the really big bomb.
11:47Donald Trump is in the Epstein files.
11:50There's my friend, blacks for Trump.
11:52I like that guy.
11:53Thank you very much.
11:54Thank all of the fellas.
11:56They went skedaddle.
11:58You know the word skedaddle?
11:59It means skedaddle.
12:00They don't know what the f**k they're doing.
12:02We'll be dropping drug prices by 1,200, 1,300 and even 1,400% and 500.
12:09Transgender for everybody.
12:10Everybody transgender.
12:12There are two N words and you can't use either of them.
12:15Sir, why are you on the roof?
12:19What does that mean?
12:21Don't take Tylenol.
12:23Right there, you see all the trucks?
12:25They've just started construction of the new ballroom.
12:27Yeah!
12:30Do you stand by that claim of calling tomorrow retarded?
12:33Yeah, I think there's something wrong with them.
12:35Men playing in women's sports and transgender from everybody and windmills all over the place.
12:40The windmills are killing our country.
12:42Anybody have a windmill kills all your birds.
12:44Birds all over the place.
12:45They're screaming for help.
12:46They got whacked.
12:47My goal is to not let any windmill be built.
12:50They're losers.
12:51Don't take Tylenol.
12:52At McDonald's there's always something to have.
12:56I like the fish.
12:58The whole Epstein thing is a Democrat hug.
13:00Bill Clinton was on his plane and went to the island supposedly 28 times.
13:04I don't want to bring that up.
13:06I refuse to talk about the fact that he's a fat slob.
13:09I don't mention it.
13:10Quiet!
13:11Quiet, Biggie!
13:12There is also a beautiful medal for you that you can wear everywhere you want to go.
13:19Well, they should give me the Nobel Prize for Rwanda and the Congo or Serbia, Kosovo.
13:26You could say India and Pakistan.
13:30I should have gotten it four or five times.
13:32Do you think the center will eventually be named the Trump-Kennedy Center?
13:35I don't know.
13:36I hear that.
13:36But I don't know.
13:37That's not up to me.
13:38That's up to the board.
13:39Go-null-F.
13:42So it's Go-null-F.
13:43Pergo-vurious.
13:45Cryptologic.
13:45President Chisekite.
13:49Why is it we only take people from whole countries?
13:52I can't believe you're asking a question on Epstein at a time like this where we're having some of the
13:57greatest success and also tragedy.
14:01Don't give Tylenol to the baby.
14:04Happy Hulk.
14:05I have a great year.
14:07Oh, oh, oh, oh.
14:08Don't give it.
14:10There's no need to feel down.
14:11I said you don't give it.
14:13Don't give it all by itself.
14:15It's going to stay at you.
14:17Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
14:20Nothing bad can happen.
14:21It can only good happen.
14:23If something happens really bad, just blame AI.
14:25I can't think of anybody in history that should get the Nobel Prize more than me.
14:33Happy anniversary, Mr. President.
14:35We have a very good show for you, right?
14:37Judd Apatow is here.
14:38We have Mika from The Temperature.
14:40And we'll be right back with Rachel McDonald.
15:02Hi, everyone.
15:04Welcome back.
15:04And tonight he has a new documentary about one of America's most treasured treasures.
15:09It is called Mel Brooks, the 99-year-old man.
15:12Judd Apatow is with us tonight.
15:14And then later, a rock band all the way from Melbourne with the song Giving Up Air, music
15:19from The Temper Trap.
15:21Tomorrow night we will be joined by Martin Short and Jackson White.
15:25And sitting in with the Cletones tonight, one of the great American chefs from Philadelphia,
15:30PA.
15:30He has the best restaurants in Philly and Las Vegas.
15:34And he plays a pretty mean guitar, too.
15:36Mark Vetri is with us.
15:40His latest in a series of excellent cookbooks called The Pasta Book.
15:45Mark, will you boil this book and feed it to me?
15:48Because I love it.
15:49Absolutely, 100%.
15:50Look at this.
15:51What do you think of that, Guillermo?
15:52He gave us a shot of that.
15:53You know what that is?
15:55Shrimps?
15:57Sausage ragu, baby.
15:58I cannot see it for him.
15:58Hold on a second.
15:59Let's see that again.
16:00Tell me what that is.
16:02Sausage ragu.
16:03Come on.
16:03Oh, ragus, yeah.
16:04I think it's pasta.
16:06It's pasta, Jim.
16:07Yeah, it's pasta.
16:08Yeah.
16:08I couldn't see it from food.
16:10Sorry, Mark.
16:10I'm so sorry.
16:11You deserve better than that.
16:12Thanks.
16:13I love your food, Mark.
16:14I've been in your restaurant.
16:16He loves your shrimp.
16:17Our first guest tonight has starred in many beloved films.
16:21And this morning, she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame to commemorate that.
16:28She has a new plane crash adventure called Send Help opening in theaters January 30th.
16:33Please welcome Rachel McAdams.
16:54Congratulations.
16:56That's a big deal, right?
16:57To have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
16:59Yeah.
17:01Yeah.
17:01Have you ever had the opportunity to lie on the ground on the Hollywood Boulevard before?
17:07No.
17:08You know.
17:08That was a first.
17:09You?
17:10I have.
17:11Yeah.
17:11All the time.
17:12Every morning I go out there.
17:13It keeps my antibodies up, you know?
17:16Yeah.
17:17I did drop my speech in the gutter right before I went up to do my speech.
17:22Perfect.
17:23Perfect.
17:23Got a little sewage on it.
17:25But it was fine.
17:26Who spoke on your behalf?
17:27Typically, you would have two people go up and they say nice things about you.
17:31Who do you have to do that?
17:32I had Donald Gleeson.
17:34Okay.
17:35Who played one of my nicest husbands in the past.
17:38And the great master, Sam Raimi.
17:41Sam Raimi, who's the director of your film right now.
17:44Yes.
17:44Oh, that's nice.
17:45Yeah.
17:45And were you pleased with their presentations?
17:47Did you feel that they expressed enough fondness and admiration?
17:52It was just enough.
17:53Yes, yes.
17:54Good, good, good.
17:55I mean, you know, you have an Irishman and a writer-director.
17:59I mean, you know, generally they can write well.
18:02They're good at that sort of thing.
18:03Yes.
18:03Did your family and friends come out to see it happen?
18:06Many.
18:07Many.
18:08Oh, how many?
18:08Half of Canada.
18:10Oh, really?
18:11Oh, that's, wow.
18:13Okay.
18:14That's a lot of responsibility.
18:16It was, yes.
18:17It was.
18:17How many people actually came down from Canada to see this?
18:21Yes.
18:21This is good.
18:22We don't get any tourists anymore, so we need it.
18:26Canada loves you.
18:27They do?
18:28Well, I love Canada, too.
18:30I think Canada hates all of us, right?
18:33And, I mean, like, you live here and you're Canadian, so you're caught in the middle in a lot of
18:38ways.
18:39Yeah, yes.
18:40Are you mad at us, or are they mad at you?
18:43That's a really good question.
18:46I don't think I want to know the answer.
18:49Yes, but no, we, we, I had a lot of wonderful blasts from the past.
18:54Friends come, and my, my parents were there, my sister.
18:58Were there people you were surprised to see there?
19:00Um, like, no one showed up out of the blue.
19:04Right.
19:05Who were the blasts from the pastors?
19:07Um, well, a lot of my, my friends from theater camp.
19:11Really?
19:11As a kid?
19:12Yeah.
19:13Wow.
19:13My best friend from when we were three.
19:16Wow.
19:17Yeah.
19:17And we lost touch.
19:18She moved away.
19:20You know, when you're a kid, like, you don't, you don't trade addresses.
19:23Just like one day the kids, back in those days.
19:26In those days, yeah.
19:26Now they're, yeah, right on, on the FaceTime with each other.
19:29Yeah.
19:29Right, right.
19:30But, so she just disappeared one day, and then, um, years later I was, I was in a theater.
19:36A theater company, a theater, kids theater camp.
19:38And, um, and, and I became friends with this girl, and she dropped me off at home one day,
19:43and she said, um, I used to live across the street here.
19:47And I said, oh, okay.
19:50Um, and she was like, have you always lived in this house?
19:53I said, yeah.
19:53She said, we were, like, best friends.
19:56And I said, I don't remember you.
20:00And then it did dawn on me.
20:01I mean, like, I feel, I, it was really weird.
20:03Like, a few days later I was like, oh, my long lost friend!
20:06It took three days for you to figure that out?
20:10Wow.
20:10What were you guys doing at that camp?
20:14Whose, whose idea was it to go to theater camp?
20:16Did your parents say, like, oh, she's talented, she should go to theater camp?
20:20No, and thank God, my parents were like, that's a terrible business to be here.
20:25Oh, they were? Okay.
20:26Yeah, no, they were, no, they didn't, they never said that.
20:28But they were just protective and careful and conservative about it.
20:31And I, and I so appreciate that now, because I, then I did it on my own, you know?
20:36I knew I wanted to do it, and I, you know, so, um, but when I,
20:40I did beg them to let me go to theater camp, and they finally, yes.
20:44And they relented, yeah, yeah.
20:46What about moving to Hollywood?
20:47Did you, did you do that?
20:49Did you come out here when you were young and move here to audition and all that stuff?
20:53I did, I did, yes.
20:55I came out here, um, I was petrified.
20:59Uh, I, I have no sense of direction, and I didn't.
21:03Same here, yeah.
21:05Really?
21:06Yeah, thank God for waste.
21:06Yes, yeah.
21:07You don't?
21:07Yeah, like, if I get in an elevator, and I'll go up to a thing, when I come down,
21:11I'm not sure which way to even go.
21:13I follow others who sometimes don't know where they're going.
21:17It's embarrassing, yeah.
21:19You go with confidence, though, and then everybody's following you, and then you're
21:22like, wait, where are you all following me?
21:23I have a different thing I do, and I'm not kidding, you're gonna think it's a joke.
21:27Wherever I think I should go, I go the other way.
21:30Yes!
21:31And it works out better for me.
21:33It's, it's, I'm at like 72% if I do that.
21:37You're like that also?
21:38I, I have that left and right problem.
21:40Someone screams at me, and says, go left!
21:43I will go right every time.
21:44Okay.
21:45So you're insubordinate, as well as being, as having a bad, bad sense of direction.
21:51Yes.
21:51So I don't even remember why we got on this, oh, here in LA.
21:54Oh, yeah, right.
21:55Oh, yeah.
21:55Because you don't know where you go.
21:56LA is hard to, yeah.
21:58Before the advent of cell phones, it was very confusing to move here to LA.
22:04Because there's, it's Wilshire Boulevard, and you think, okay, I'm going to this address
22:07at Wilshire Boulevard.
22:08But Wilshire Boulevard starts here, and then it ends here, and then it picks up back in
22:11the valley, and then it picks up back downtown.
22:13And I would just show up at the address, and I would be so far off here.
22:18In the wrong place, yeah.
22:19And I'm trying to get to an audition, and, um, and it was really terrible.
22:22I didn't have a cell phone.
22:23I didn't, you know.
22:24Did you like doing auditions?
22:26Because some people actually enjoy that process.
22:28Did you enjoy that?
22:29I did.
22:30You did.
22:30I really did.
22:31Yeah, I did.
22:32I, I liked to dress up for my auditions, which you're not really supposed to do, but
22:38I thought...
22:38What do you mean by dress up for your auditions?
22:40Like, just really play the part, and I'd bring in props.
22:44Well, now you're really not supposed to do that, right?
22:47No, you're really not.
22:48You'd bring props to the audition?
22:49No, I was like, I just want to make an impression, you know?
22:52Like, you're going to give me the job you aren't, I guess, but maybe I'm just going
22:55to make an impression, and maybe you'll bring me back another time for something else.
22:58Like, what props would you bring?
22:59Or did you bring?
23:00Well, it started small with, like, an apple or an orange, and then eventually I'd, I'd
23:05make a sandwich out of a picnic basket, or one time I baked cookies in the audition.
23:12You baked cookies in front of people?
23:14Yeah, like, I brought oven mitts and an apron.
23:16Uh-huh.
23:17I didn't go too crazy, but then I mimed the food going in the stove, and I, you know,
23:22I'm like, no.
23:24So you pretended there was a stove, but the cookies were real?
23:28Yes, I did a lot.
23:28And did you give the cookies to the people?
23:31No.
23:32Oh.
23:32That's why I didn't get the job.
23:34Oh, yeah, it might be.
23:35What happened?
23:36Yeah, you can't bring cookies into an office and then leave with them.
23:40Oh, wow.
23:41Well, it's a miracle it worked out for you.
23:43It really is.
23:44I think that every day.
23:45We're going to take a break and see a clip from your new movie.
23:48It is called Send Help.
23:49Rachel McAdams is with us.
24:08That is the greatest meat I've ever tasted.
24:10It's incredible.
24:20What?
24:23I was just thinking.
24:27While you were sitting here like a bump on a log, little old me was bringing home the
24:33bacon.
24:38It's Rachel McAdams in Send Help.
24:41It opens on January 30th in theaters directed by Sam Raimi.
24:47So you get there's a plane crash.
24:48You get stranded on an island with your boss.
24:51That guy is your boss.
24:53Yes.
24:54Is it appropriate to call it a thriller or a horror movie or how would you categorize the film?
24:59It's like a psychological thriller with horror elements.
25:03Okay.
25:04What genre is that?
25:05I don't know.
25:05I think it's its own.
25:06I think you just made one up.
25:07Yeah.
25:08And there is a lot of blood in the film.
25:11A lot of blood.
25:12A lot of blood.
25:13Are you upset by that or does it not bother you?
25:15Um, I, it's like not great to have blood thrown in your face every day.
25:21Uh, but it's, you know, it's, it's a rite of passage to have it done by Sam Raimi.
25:27Certainly.
25:28And, um, but it's a little gross.
25:30Yeah.
25:31I thought, you know, they're like, oh, it tastes like, um, corn syrup.
25:33It's sweet.
25:34It's sugary.
25:35You'll like it, you know?
25:35And then.
25:37Yeah.
25:38No, no.
25:39Yeah.
25:39Like who wants to drink corn syrup?
25:41I know.
25:42I know.
25:42You'll like it.
25:42I know.
25:43And then the flies start coming around and the, the sand sticks to it.
25:46Wow.
25:46And then the boar hair, because they fight a boar, would come off and stick to the blood.
25:53It wasn't real boar hair.
25:54It was faux boar hair.
25:55Uh-huh.
25:55Um, just to be clear.
25:57Yeah.
25:58Uh, no boars were harmed in the making of this movie.
26:01Uh, so yeah, it's gross.
26:03It's definitely gross.
26:04So when you read the script, when you originally get the pitch, you're like, oh, this will be
26:08nice.
26:08This is like a beautiful tropical island.
26:10This would be like a working vacation for me in a lot of ways.
26:14Yeah.
26:14And it doesn't sound like it was.
26:15No.
26:16No, it wasn't.
26:17Was it unpleasant on the island?
26:19I mean, look, it was a, it was an amazing adventure.
26:22It was gorgeous.
26:23Thailand was incredible.
26:25Um, but, uh, it's not as comfortable as I thought it was going to be when I read
26:30the script.
26:31Yeah.
26:31Um, do you think you would do well personally in a situation like that, being stranded
26:36on an island?
26:41If I had coffee.
26:45That would be what you needed?
26:47Coffee.
26:47Yeah.
26:48Yeah.
26:48Coffee.
26:49Okay.
26:49How much coffee do you drink?
26:50A lot.
26:51Oh, like how much is a lot?
26:53I don't even keep track anymore.
26:55Um, so I didn't drink coffee until about a year and a half ago.
26:59Oh.
26:59I didn't drink, I didn't touch the stuff.
27:01I was like, oh, it makes me so jittery.
27:03I can't possibly like not even a decaf.
27:05No, thank you.
27:06Um, and then I, uh, I was tired all the time and I went to my doctor and I said,
27:11I'm so
27:12tired.
27:12I don't know what's happening.
27:13Like I cannot stay awake.
27:15And she was like, okay, we'll run all these tests and we'll see.
27:17And, um, and so I did all the tests.
27:19I did, uh, I did the pee test.
27:22I did the spit test.
27:23I did the poop test.
27:24I did the blood test.
27:25I did the breath test.
27:26Have you done the breath test?
27:27No.
27:28I didn't even know there was one.
27:29Oh, yeah.
27:29You blow into a bag.
27:31A bunch of bags.
27:32And then you send them away in the mail.
27:33And then they tell you stuff about your breath.
27:35What?
27:36Yeah.
27:37And you did that with your poop as well?
27:39Modern medicine.
27:40And when they...
27:41You know what you have to do with the poop one.
27:42Well, that's a different...
27:43Well, no, I don't exactly necessarily.
27:46Is it involved mailing it to somebody?
27:48You've never done it?
27:48You've never done the poop test?
27:50I've had a colonoscopy.
27:52That's a whole other thing.
27:55Yeah, no, I've never...
27:55Never put your poop in the mail?
27:57I mean...
27:58Well, yeah, I...
28:00Has anyone done that?
28:01Look, I'm not...
28:02I mean, yes.
28:03Yes, I do mail my poop to people.
28:08But not, like, as a...
28:09Not part of some kind of test.
28:11No.
28:12I have never done that.
28:14I've heard about it one time three days ago for the first time in my whole life.
28:19And so that's why I know you're not lying or just making up something weird.
28:24But, um...
28:25No.
28:25Oh, imagine working at that place.
28:27No.
28:27One... I know.
28:29You got a package.
28:33All right.
28:34Well, that's the...
28:34Yeah.
28:35Anyway, I...
28:36There was nothing wrong with...
28:37There was nothing wrong with me.
28:38They all came back great.
28:39And they said, um...
28:40And I said, so...
28:41So we've gone through your poop?
28:41So why am I so...
28:42We've gone through your poop and your breath and all the things.
28:43We've examined your breath.
28:44Everything.
28:45And you're fine.
28:45You need to go to Starbucks.
28:46Yeah, okay.
28:48You just...
28:49I said, well, so what is it?
28:50She said, I think you're just, like, a mom.
28:53Like, an older mom.
28:57So...
28:58It's okay.
28:58I don't mind.
28:59I don't mind.
29:00Um...
29:00And so she said, uh...
29:02I said, so what, like, is there medicine for being an older mom and I can take?
29:06And she said, no, no.
29:07I mean, do you drink coffee?
29:08And I was like, coffee?
29:10That's your...
29:11That's...
29:11I did all this for...
29:13You're gonna tell me to drink coffee?
29:15Yeah.
29:15Um, so I did.
29:18And...
29:19And it works.
29:22It's a miracle.
29:24It's a miracle.
29:26Well, it's great to have you here.
29:28Uh, the movie is called Send Help.
29:30Send coffee, too, if you have it.
29:32Um...
29:32Send help.
29:34It's better than the things that you're...
29:35You've been sending, uh, help, but, um...
29:38It opens the theaters January 30th.
29:40Rachel McAdams, everybody.
29:42In the back of Jen Apatow.
29:48This week, on Jimmy Kimmel Live,
29:51Martin Short, and from American Idol,
29:54Luke Bryan, Lionel Richie, and Carrie Underwood.
29:57Plus, music from Men at Work.
30:10Hi there, welcome back.
30:11Music from The Temper Trap is on the way.
30:13Our next guest is an exceedingly successful writer, director, comedian, and producer who has a new two-part documentary paying
30:20tribute to another one, Mel Brooks, the 99-year-old man.
30:25How long did your mom live?
30:27Not bad.
30:2792.
30:28So she got to see it all?
30:30She got to see a lot of it.
30:31How excited about your career was she?
30:34She was very excited.
30:35Every time I won something, whether it was an Emmy or an Oscar or whatever that I won, I would
30:43send it to her.
30:44Yeah.
30:45She'd put it on her TV set.
30:46The whole building would come through her apartment.
30:50She'd serve tea and cookies to see the Emmy or whatever.
30:53Yeah.
30:53Mel Brooks, the 99-year-old man, premieres Thursday and Friday on HBO and HBO Max.
30:59Please welcome Judd Apatow.
31:13Good to see you.
31:16You know, Jimmy.
31:17Yes?
31:18It's on HBO and HBO Max.
31:20That's right.
31:21What does that mean?
31:22We don't know.
31:23I don't know.
31:23They refuse to combine totally.
31:25They went to Max and now I go to the app and it just does.
31:28It says, don't use this again.
31:30Please delete this.
31:31And I can't figure out how to do it.
31:32But if you look for the letters H, B, and O, you will find the documentary and you will be
31:37pleased when you find it.
31:38Because I have to say, I loved it.
31:41I loved it.
31:41I felt like I got to spend time with Mel Brooks, even though I was by myself.
31:46Yeah.
31:46And he is just somebody that you really, I think you watch him and you just wish you could be
31:52with him all the time.
31:54Exactly.
31:54That's the only reason why I made it was so that he had to hang out with me.
31:58I got that sense.
31:59I really did.
31:59Really.
32:00It's like I got to spend 10 hours talking to Mel.
32:03That's even how I pitched it.
32:04Because he didn't want to do it.
32:05And I'm like, but Mel, we get to hang out.
32:07And then he's like, okay.
32:09Oh.
32:10Simple as that, really.
32:11Yeah.
32:11Because I've been stalking him for years.
32:13I love his mouth and his teeth.
32:15Oh, the teeth.
32:16It's just a delight.
32:16His face is delightful.
32:17Yeah.
32:18He is delightful.
32:19You look at his teeth and you're like, those teeth fought in World War II.
32:23That's right.
32:23Those teeth saw Kennedy.
32:24Those teeth have seen everything.
32:25He did fight in World War II, which is like a lot of these great comedians.
32:30Yeah.
32:30Rickles.
32:31Who else fought in World War II?
32:33Carl Reiner.
32:34Carl Reiner fought.
32:35Dick Van Dyke.
32:36Dick Van Dyke fought in, Norman Lear fought in World War II.
32:39Yeah.
32:40And here we are fighting Greenland.
32:42Yeah.
32:43Yeah.
32:43And Minneapolis.
32:44We're fighting Minneapolis.
32:44We're fighting Minneapolis right now.
32:46Had you worked with Mel before this in any capacity?
32:49Well, no.
32:51I mean, kind of.
32:52Like, how I met him is, I think I had lunch with him and then I would just like visit
32:57him,
32:57whether he liked it or not.
32:58And I would just try to hang out and ask him questions.
33:01And once I brought Bill Hader with me and, you know, we were just kissing his ass because
33:04he deserves it.
33:05And, uh, and then at the end of it, he goes, this was fun.
33:09Let's do it again.
33:09But not soon.
33:12Like four months.
33:14Like four months.
33:14Wait, four months.
33:15And then as we're walking away, we're in the parking garage.
33:17Uh, no, the parking outside.
33:19And he's up and suddenly we see him from a long distance and he goes, get the out of
33:24here.
33:27Watching, um, all these people talk about him.
33:30And it's like every one of them, it seems to be in agreement that he's the funniest
33:33person they've ever encountered in their lives.
33:36Yeah.
33:36Like by far.
33:37And nonstop.
33:38Just seem to be disruptive at all times.
33:40Yeah.
33:41Constantly screwing around.
33:42Yeah.
33:43And I, you know, the point of the documentary was, can I get him to be just emotional and
33:48just say, what did it feel like?
33:50Well, you know, I, that's what my pitch to him was.
33:52I want to know your wisdom.
33:53Uh huh.
33:54You know, what have you learned in your 99 years?
33:57Because if you ask him any kind of question, he'll just go on a hilarious run.
34:00So it's actually kind of hard to get him to just, you know, be straight with you.
34:04Yeah.
34:04He has to say something funny, maybe a couple of funny things.
34:08But eventually he gets to it.
34:10Exactly.
34:10And it's really very sweet and very sad in certain parts because, um, the story about
34:14his, his deep, deep love for his wife, Anne Pancroft, who died of cancer and his
34:19deep love for Carl Reiner, his best friend.
34:22Yeah.
34:22I mean, those are really like these two amazing loves of his life.
34:25And his kids are in the documentary talking about, you know, their life with Mel, which,
34:29you know, we haven't seen before.
34:31Yeah.
34:31And then, you know, Rob Reiner is in it a lot because he's the one explaining so much
34:35about Mel and Carl's friendship.
34:37And, and, and Rob was the one who said, uh, I think the reason why Mel and my dad got
34:42along so well is Mel looked up to him as a father figure.
34:46Even though he's only four years older than Mel.
34:49Yeah.
34:49Because Mel's not, his dad died when he was two.
34:51And I asked Mel, I go, is that true?
34:53Was he the father figure to you?
34:54He goes, yeah.
34:54You know, he's tall.
34:55He's nice.
34:57You know?
34:57And, and then he said, he's like, and he's just as funny as me, but he lets me get all
35:02the laughs.
35:03That is true.
35:03He's very generous.
35:04He's like the straight man in all the routines that they have.
35:07Yeah.
35:08He goes, who's nicer than that?
35:09You can see how much they love each other in every little clip.
35:13I mean, it's really, and nobody's laughing harder at Mel than Carl Reiner.
35:17Yeah.
35:17Yeah.
35:17It's a, yeah.
35:18There's like a joke at the end of the documentary where he's paying tribute to Carl Reiner.
35:24And, and then in the middle of it, he goes, I have to admit something.
35:27I'm not Jewish.
35:28And then he peels his nose off like Mission Impossible.
35:33And the crowd goes crazy.
35:35And then Carl gets up and just kisses him on the mouth five times.
35:38Yeah.
35:38And he's like, that's the funniest thing I've ever seen in my life.
35:41And they like hug and kiss because like they love each other and they love jokes so much.
35:45You know, you've got a big nose when you can pull off a fake nose and your best friend
35:50didn't know you were wearing a fake nose.
35:53For the whole dinner.
35:54For the whole dinner.
35:57It really is incredible.
35:58Well, it's really good.
35:59I, you've done, I know you love this because you've done documentaries about George
36:03Carlin, Rickles.
36:05Who are the other comics?
36:06Gary Shandling.
36:07Gary Shandling.
36:07That's a great one.
36:08Yeah.
36:08We have one at Sundance next week about Maria Bamford.
36:12Oh, really?
36:12Wow.
36:13And then later this year, one about Norm McDonald's.
36:15And about Norm.
36:16That's, well, that's exciting.
36:17And this is a book that you wrote.
36:19It's called Comedy Nerd because that is how you, you think of yourself as a fan of,
36:24of all these great comics.
36:26You can see a lot of them.
36:28Are these pictures from your personal collection?
36:29Yeah.
36:30And look at my haircut there, too.
36:31Yeah.
36:32It's like the funniest people in the world and LeBron James.
36:35Yeah.
36:37How did he make the collage?
36:39I mean, he was funny and train wreck.
36:41He came.
36:41He delivered big time.
36:42That's okay.
36:43All right.
36:43All right.
36:44And also there's, I do want to mention something because there's a section on talk shows,
36:49late night talk shows.
36:50Um, now you've been on this show how many times, Judd?
36:56Let's just go through the book if we could.
36:58Are you not in there?
36:59You're somewhere else in there.
37:00Oh, that's Jimmy Fallon.
37:01That's not me.
37:03Um, that's Jay Leno.
37:04That's not me.
37:05Uh, that is Seth Meyers.
37:07That's Jon Stewart.
37:08That's Conan.
37:09That's Stephen Colbert.
37:11That's Dave.
37:12And that's you and Robert Williams.
37:14No, no.
37:15You're on a different page, much larger.
37:18Oh.
37:18What page am I on?
37:20I know.
37:20It's 567 pages, but let's go through it and find it.
37:22Did you get paid by the pound for this book?
37:24It's huge.
37:26It's enormous.
37:27Well, you know what?
37:28I'm gonna spend the next three months looking for my photograph.
37:32And, um, perhaps I will come.
37:33Maybe you're confusing me with Adam Sandler?
37:35Let me see it.
37:36I'll find it.
37:36Maybe one of the photos of you you think is me?
37:38Yeah.
37:39Is that possible?
37:40No, because we used to look the same, and then you got skinny and I stayed fat.
37:44I always thought you would gain the weight back, but it didn't happen.
37:47Don't worry.
37:47I will.
37:47Yeah.
37:48I will.
37:48I will.
37:49Well, it's great to see you.
37:50And the documentary is beautiful.
37:52It's two parts.
37:53It's called Mel Brooks, The 99-Year-Old Man.
37:55It debuts this Thursday and Friday on HBO and HBO Max.
37:59Judd Apatow, everybody.
38:00Thank you, Judd.
38:01We'll be back with The Temper Trap.
38:12Thanks to Rachel McAdams and Judd Apatow.
38:15Apologies to Matt Damon.
38:16Nightline is next for first with the song Giving Up Air, The Temper Trap.
38:29It's the song.
38:36It's the song.
38:40It's the song.
38:49My heart.
38:50All of the visions of you are fading
38:55Where have they gone in this house?
39:04Feels like it's sinking
39:12Feels like it's sinking
39:19And it's hard to breathe in
39:31Getting up there, leaving up there
39:33All of my dreams will reappear
39:36And everything I know is hanging on a prayer
39:46Getting up there, leaving up there
39:48All of my dreams will reappear
39:51And everything I know is hanging on a prayer
39:54To the night
40:08Riding the sun
40:13No use for this thing
40:16Riding the sun
40:20Break it down
40:23Holding on tight
40:25Choking the life out
40:27Nothing was left in this house
40:35It's surely sinking
40:43It's like it's sinking
40:51It's hard to breathe in
40:55You're not there, you're not there
40:57All my dreams will reappear
40:59With everything I know is hanging on a breath
41:09It's like it's sinking
41:24It's like you
41:26It's like you
41:27It's like you
