LOOK AT US. I AM SO HAPPY THAT ARE YOU BOTH
HERE. WE ALL ARE.
IT IS YOUR FIRST TIME HERE. WE'VE MET BEFORE.
>> YES, I THOUGHT YOU DIDN'T REMEMBER.
>> James: NO, I DID REMEMBER. NO, WE DID MEET.
WE MET AT THE MET GALA. >> YES.
>> James: YES. WE HAD QUITE THE BOOGIE, I
REMEMBER. >> YOU HAD HAVE THIS QUALITY SO
YOU KNOW EVERYBODY ONCE THEY THE WHOLE TIME I WAS DANCING I WS
GOING AFTER YOU TO TRY TO DANCE WITH YOU, BUT YOU KEPT ESCAPING.
SO I SAID YOU MUST HAVE HAD SOME WEIRDO STALKING YOU-- STALKING
YOU. >> James: I DIDN'T PICK UP ON
THOSE TIMES. I WOULD NEVER BE LIKE OH, GOD, I
WISH PENELOPE CRUZ WOULD LEAVE ME ALONE.
>> SHE TOLD ME BEFORE THIS SO I KNOW IT IS TRUE.
>> James: I WOULD NEVER, I WOULD NEVER, MI QUITE THE SOLO
DANCER. >> YOU WERE A SOLO DANCER.
>> James: WHEN I GET IN THE ZONE, WHEN THE FEET TAKE OVER,
GET OUT THE WAY BECAUSE IT'S WHY I HAVE NEVER DONE DANCING WITH
THE STARS BECAUSE I JUST PARTNER MYSELF.
BUT I'M SO HAPPY THAT YOU ARE HERE.
>> ME TOO, SO HAPPY. >> James: AND I WOULD NEVER
RUN AWAY FROM YOU ON A DANCE FLOOR, NEVER, EVER, EVER.
JESSICA, YOU HAVE BEEN ON THE DANCE FLOOR, WE HAVE VACATIONED
TOGETHER. >> I TOLD PEN EL PEA WE
VACATIONED TOGETHER. >> James: YOU CAN IMAGINE.
>> YES. >> James: CAN YOU IMAGINE.
>> AND WE DOT DIDN'T GET SUPERSUNBURNED.
>> James: WE HAD A GREAT TIME. ALTHOUGH YOUR FAMILY, MY FAMILY,
A COUPLE OF OTHER FAMILIES. YOU WERE IN CHARGE, EVERY NIGHT
WE WOULD WATCH A FILM. >> YEAH.
>> James: AND WERE YOU IN CHARGE OF SELECTING THE MOVIE,
AND THIS IS A BONE OF CONTENTION BETWEEN US.
>> SEE, THAT IS WHEN I REALIZED WHEN IRFIRST MET YOU, I WAS LIKE
THAT'S IT, WE ARE SOUL MATES, WE ARE MEANT TO BE FRIENDS FOR THE
REST OF OUR LIVINGS. THEN I WOULD SUGGEST A FILM, SUN
CHILDREN OR WHAT NOTE AND JAMES TE NEXT DAY WOULD JUST BE LIKE,
JESSICA, PLEASE CAN WE CATCH PRETTY WOMAN.
>> James: BUT IT WAS-- NO, TO BE CLEAR, IT WASN'T-- IT WAS
EVERY NIGHT, WAS A DIFFERENT FILM THAT WAS MADE FOR LIKE $7
WITH A CELLO PLAYED IN A MINOR KEY.
AND THE CAMERA VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY LONG WAY AWAY
FROM SOMEONE ON A BIKE. AND I WAS LIKE-- AND THEN YOU
WOULD BE LIKE I WONDER WHERE THEY ARE GOING.
AND THEY WOULD GO TO LIKE A LAUNDRETTE AND YOU WOULD WATCH
EVERY PIECE OF THEIR WASHING GO IN.
AND IT WOULD BE LIKE SOMETHING HAS TO HAPPEN.
AND THEN IT WOULD END. AND PEOPLE WOULD GO, THAT WAS
BEAUTIFUL, WASN'T IT AND I WAS LIKE.
>> I WAS CRYING. >> James: YEAH, I WAS JUST SO
MOVED BY THE SCENE. >> MY FAVORITE IS SOMETIMES
DURING, AFTER A WHILE SOMETIMES DURING A SCREENING I LOOK OVER
AND JAMES WOULD BE STAIRING AT ME AND BE LIKE, I SAY YOU FALL
ASLEEP. >> James: THAT'S TRUE, AND I
DID, I STAND BY IT, I DID. WE WERE ALL QUITE DRUNK.
NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT UNBELIEVABLE FILMS, OBVIOUSLY
PENELOPE YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND, YOU HAVE BOTH WON OSCARS.
>> YEAH. >> James: AM I THINKING THAT
YOUR OSCAR STATUE IS DIFFERENT TO US.
>> MINE IS DIFFERENT. >> James: I THOUGHT THEY WERE
ALL THE SAME, HOW. >> BECAUSE YOU KNOW, THEY GIVE
YOU AT THE PLACE, AND YOU CAN GO THERE, AND THEY CAN DO IT FOR
YOU. BUT I DIDN'T DO IT THAT NIGHT.
AND MY -- GAVE IT TO ME BUT HE DIDN'T HAVE THE GLASS, SO HE PUT
IT UPSIDE DOWN. OF COURSE MY DAD UNFORTUNATELY
IS NOT WITH US ANY MORE SO I COULD NEVER CHANGE IT DISWRZ NO,
YOU CAN'T. >> HE LEFT HIS PRINT THERE, YOU
KNOW, AND IT'S REALLY EMOTIONAL FOR ME TO LOOK AT IT.
>> James: OH, THAT'S AMAZING. >> YEAH.
>> James: LIKE NO ONE ELSE DID EVER DO THEIRS UPSIDE DOWN NOW
SO YOURS IS THE ONLY ONE. >> ONE OF THE FEW.
>> James: AM I RIGHT THAT YOU USED TO, IS THIS TRUE, TAKE YOUR
OSCAR TO THE BEACH? >> WELL, I DID THAT ONCE BECAUSE
WHEN I WENT, MY FAMILY, MY FRIENDS, AND I WAS SO EXCITED.
AND WE WENT TO THE BEACH RIGHT AFTER WINNING, LIKE THE DAY
AFTER. AND I TOOK IT WITH ME
EVERYWHERE, EVERYWHERE FOR-- EVERYWHERE, OF COURSE.
>> James: I THINK THAT THE TWO OF YOU ARE THE BEST ACTORS OF
YOUR GENERATION. YOU BOTH HAVE SUCH EXTRAORDINARY
CAREERS, I THINK. AND JESS, YOUR FIRST BIG JOB IN
HOLLYWOOD, YOU WERE IN AN EPISODE OF ER.
>> YEAH, I GOT MY SAG CARD. IT WAS ER, I THINK LIKE PROBABLY
THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE GOT THEIR SAG CARD ON THAT SHOW.
>> James: WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER ABOUT THAT, WHAT DID YOU HAVE TO
DO? >> I PLAYED, AGAIN, THERE WAS
PROBABLY TELE MUSIC IN THE BACKGROUND AND PEOPLE WERE
WEEPING AND IT WAS IF BLACK AND WHITE.
BUT I PLAYED A CHARACTER WHO WAS KEEPING HER COME A TOWS FATHER
ALIVE TO TORTURE HIM BECAUSE HE HAD ABUSED HER.
SO IT GOES ALONG THE LINES OF MY FILM CHOICES, MAYBE.
>> James: YEAH. >> BUT I REMEMBER BEING THERE,
MY FIRST DAY ON SET, AND EVERYONE WAS SO SWEET TO ME AND
SO GREAT. AND THEN YOU KNOW, IT WAS MY
FIRST DAY, I WAS STOKED TO BE DOING THIS.
AND SOMEONE COMES OVER AND SAYS HEY, CAN I GET A PICTURE.
I SAID YEAH, AND I TURN AROUND LIKE THAT POSE, LIKE SOMEONE IS
TAKING A PICTURE OF ME TO CELEBRATE ME AND GIVE IT TO ME
FOR MY FIRST DAY ON SET. >> James: OH NO.
>> AND THEN EVERYONE LAUGHED BECAUSE IT WAS A CONTINUE OUT
PHOTO. >> James: IT WAS JUST A PHOTO
TO REMEMBER YOUR COSTUME FOR THE NEXT DAY.
>> JUST THE CREW WAS LIKE CAN I HAVE A PICTURE, THANKS AND
WALKING OFF. >> James: GO ON, GIVE US THE
FULL POSE, I WILL BE THE PERSON. >> I PROBABLY WENT LIKE THIS, I
WAS ACTING REALLY SERIOUSLY. >> James: CAN I GET A PICTURE.
>> YEAH. >> James: YOU HAVE SOME
MEDICAL EXPERIENCE. EXPLAIN TO US WHO DR. CRUZ IS.
>> AN AUDIBLE OH GOSH. >> EVERYONE WHO KNOWS ME, FOR ME
IT IS NORMAL. I MEAN HAVE I SINCE I WAS A
LITTLE GIRL. I WHEN I WAS PLAYING WITH MY
FRIENDS, WAS EITHER PLAYING I WAS A MODEL OR I WAS A DOCTOR.
MY GRANDMOTHER WAS DIABETIC SO I WOULD TAKE HER NEEDLES, THE
INSULIN NEEDLES AND GET ALL THE DOLLS AND I WOULD GIVE THEM
PRESCRIPTIONS. AND THEN IT BECAME LIKE OVER THE
YEARS, MY PEOPLE, MY FAMILY, MY FRIENDS THINK I AM A HYPOCONNED
REE AK, I THINK I AM-- THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT.
>> I REMEMBER ONE OF OUR FIRST DAY SHOOTING WERE YOU EATING
SALT AND TALKING TO ME ABOUT HOW ALL THESE MEDICAL THEORIES AND
THINGS. AND THAT IS WHEN I WAS LIKE OH,
WE'VE GOT ONE OF THOSE. >> James: YOU WERE EATING
SALT. >> ESPECIALLY MY CARDIOLOGIST
TOLD ME TO DO THAT BECAUSE MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS VERY LOW.
AND SHE JUST-- . >> James: WOW.
>> AT THE RIGHT TIME, OF COURSE, THAT IS WHAT THEY TOLD ME.
>> James: THE FILM IS AMAZING, WE SHOULD TALK ABOUT IT,
CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH ON THE THREE FIVE FIVE.
I KNOW WERE YOU HUGELY STEUMENTAL IN PRODUCING THE
MOVIE, YOU PUT THE WHOLE THING TOGETHER.
TELL US ABOUT THE MOVIE AND WHO YOU BOTH PLAY.
>> SO THE THREE FIVE FIVE IS AN ACTION THRILLER MOVIE ABOUT A
GROUP OF FEMALE AGENTS ALL ACROSS THE WORLD.
AND THEY REALIZE THEY HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER TO SAVE THE WORLD.
AND I REALIZE I HADN'T BEEN A FILM LIKE THAT WITH WOMEN THAT
WASN'T LIKE CUTE SEE OR A JOKE OR THAT TOOK IT SERIOUSLY.
SO I AD THIS IDEA TO MAKE IT. I CALLED ALL THE ACTRESSES AND
THEY SAID YES. AND WE RAISED THE MONEY
OURSELVES. WE MADE IT INDEPENDENTLY OUTSIDE
THE STUDIO SYSTEM. WE ARE, WE MADE IT FOR A
FRACTION OF THE COST OF WHAT IT WOULD NORMALLY BE AND WE ARE THE
OWNERS OF THE FILM. >> James: IT'S AMAZING THERE
ARE INCREDIBLE ACTION SEQUENCES IN THE MOVIE.
I KNOW YOU DID A LOT OF YOUR OWN STUNT WORK ON THE FILM.
HOW DID YOU-- DID YOU GET IN-- YOU MUST HAVE-- SOME OF THE
STUFF ARE YOU DOING IS. >> I ACTUALLY HAD TO GO TO THE
HOSPITAL. >> James: NO, WHY.
>> THAT DAY I WAS WORRIED. >> I WAS DOING A FIGHT SCENE, ON
A MARBLE FLOOR. I MISJUDGED.
I HAD FALLEN AND HIT MY HEAD. I MISJUDGED THE DISTANCE.
I HEARD IT CRACK. >> James: NO.
>> THAT MIGHT BE WHY I AM THE WAY MI TODAY.
IT CRACKED. EVERYONE STOPPED AND LOOKED
SCARED. AND I WAS A BIT STUNNED LIKE I
DON'T KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING. MY STUNT DOUBLE COMES UP TO ME,
SHE IS FRENCH AND DOESN'T SPEAK A LOT OF ENGLISH, SHE COMES UP
TO ME, I'M SORRY, BUT I HAVE TO PUT IT BACK IN.
AND I'M SITTING THERE, PUT WHAT BACK IN, ARE MY BRAINS OUTSIDE
OF MY FACE, WHAT IS HAPPENING. AND I GUESS IT WAS JUST A BRUISE
SHE WAS PUSHING BACK IN MY HEAD, I DID A COUPLE MORE TAKES, I
DON'T GIVE UP EASY, AND THEN I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL.
>> DR. CRUZ SAID YOU ARE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL.
>> James: WHEN YOU ARE WATCH WITHING THEM DO ALL OF THE
STUNTS, WERE YOU WISHING YOU WERE PART OF THAT OR WERE YOU
LIKE. >> NO, NO.
>> James: I WILL SIT OVER HERE WITH MY BAG OF SALT.
>> NO, I TRIED TO DO THAT IN OTHER MOVIES LIKE PIRATES, I WAS
PREGNANT WHEN I WAS SHOOTING THAT.
AND I, IF HAVE I TO DO THAT I AM DOING IT BUT MY CHARACTER IS SO
AGAINST ALL OF THAT. I PLAY KIND OF THE-- SHE IS NOT
AN AGENT, SHE IS A PSYCHOLOGIST, SHE DOESN'T WANT TO BE IN WITH
THEM. SO I WAS WHERE I WAS SUPPOSED TO
BE. LOOKING AT THEM AND I AM SO
RELIEVED I DON'T HAVE TO DO ALL OF THAT.
>> James: THE FILM IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT AND ARE YOU
EXTRAORDINARY IN IT.
