MANY OF YOU -- I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE
KNOWN THIS -- BUT I'VE KNOWN JOHN A LONG TIME ACTUALLY.
NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THIS.
WE WORKED TOGETHER A LOT.
WE WORKED TOGETHER A LOT OF TIMES BUT FOR ONE REASON OR
ANOTHER, JUST HASN'T WORKED OUT.
IN FACT, WE WORKED TOGETHER SO MANY TIMES, A COUPLE OF YEARS
AGO THEY MADE A SHORT DOCUMENTARY ABOUT HOW HARD OF A
TIME WE AS A PAIR HAVE HAD.
TAKE A LOOK.
JOHN AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER FOR YEARS.
OUR CAREERS, WE'VE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TOGETHER TO STAR IN
SOME OF THE GREATEST MOTION PICTURES IN HISTORY.
>> John: I THINK SO.
WE'VE BEEN FIRED SOME EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM.
>> James: WHICH I DON'T UNDERSTAND BECAUSE I THINK WE
JUST.
>> John: CLICK.
>> James: I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT WE HAVE GREAT CHEMISTRY.
>> John: WHATEVER IT IS, IT'S ELECTRIC, RIGHT?
>> James: IT IS.
IT IS -- YOU KNOW, THAT WAS NEVER MORE APPARENT THAN WHEN WE
WERE FIRST CAST IN THE MOTION PICTURE "A FEW GOOD MEN."
>> James: I THINK I'VE ENTITLED -- YOU WANT ANSWERS.
>> John: I WANT THE TRUTH.
YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH.
>> James: YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH.
>> John: YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH.
>> James: YOU'VE NOT BEEN ABLE TO HANDLE THE TRUTH.
>> John: IT'S NOT SOMETHING YOU CAN HANDLE.

YOU WERE ON FIRE.
>> James: WHY'D YOU STOP?
>> YOU'RE BOTH FIRED.
>> John: WHO IS?
>> James: WHO IS FIRED?
>> John: JACK NICHOLSON GOT NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR AFTER
THAT ROLE AFTER WE TOOK IT OFF BUT--
>> James: YOU WOULD HAVE WON IT.
>> John: I WOULD HAVE WON IT.
>> James: DAMN RIGHT.
PEOPLE COME UP TO US EVERY SINGLE DAY AND THEY GO, HEY, YOU
GUYS, YOU'RE SO GREAT TOGETHER.
THIS CHEMISTRY.
WHAT'S THE SECRET?
I'LL TELL YOU THE SECRET.
WE'VE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER SINCE 1939.
YOU KNOW, WHEN WE ENDED UP ON THE SET OF A LITTLE MOVIE CALLED
"GONE WITH THE WIND".
>> John: THAT WAS SPECIAL.
>> James: WHERE SHALL I GO?
WHAT SHALL I DO.
>> John: FRANKLY MY DEAR, I DON'T GIVE A CARE.
>> CUT, THE LINE IS I DON'T GIVE A DAMN.
>> John: IS IT?
>> James: RHETT, RHETT, WHERE DO I GO?
WHAT SHOULD I DO?
>> John: FRANKLY, MY DEAR, I DON'T GIVE A DAMN.
>> CUT.

WHAT SHOULD I DO?

WOW.
CREDIT.
>> James: RHETT, RHETT, WHERE SHOULD I GO?
WHAT SHOULD I DO?
>> John: FRANKLY MY DEAR, I DON'T GIVE A DAMN.
>> CUT!
>> John: YEAH?
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M GLAD WE DIDN'T GET THOSE PARTS BECAUSE THE MOVIE
IS -- NOT GOOD.
>> James: GONE WITH THE WIND.
IT'S MORE LIKE GONE WITH THREE HOURS OF MY LIFE.
YAWN FEST.
>> John: YEAH.
AND THE FACT THAT WE NEVER GOT THOSE PARTS, ACTUALLY MEANS THAT
WE'VE NEVER TYPECAST.
WE CAN JUST-- >> James: IF WE'D DONE GONE WITH
THE WIND, QUENTIN TARANTINO WOULD NEVER HAVE CONSIDERED US
FOR "PULP FICTION."
>> John: THE PATH OF THE RIGHTEOUS MAN WAS SET ON ALL
SIDES BY THE INEQUITIES OF THE SELFISH AND THE PURITY OF THE
EVIL MEN.
BLESSED IS HE WHO WHO SHEPHERDS THE WEAK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF
THE SHADOW OF DEATH AND TAKE A LOOK AT MY LIFE AND REALIZE
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT 'CAUSE I'VE BEEN BLASTING AND LAUGHING SO
LONG -- >> WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
>> James: THAFSSES GANGSTER'S PARADISE BY COOLIO.
I'M SO CONFUSED.
>> ALL RIGHT, LET'S PICK UP IT FROM THE MIDDLE.
>> James: BLESSED IS HE WHO SHEPHERDS THE WEAK THROUGH THE
VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH AND TAKE A LOOK AT MY LIFE AND
REALIZE THERE'S NOTHING LEFT.
'CAUSE I'VE BEEN BLASTING -- ALL RIGHT.
>> ALL RIGHT, CUT.
>> James: SUCH A GOOD SONG THOUGH.
>> WE DON'T HAVE THE TIME.
LET'S TRY THE OTHER GUY.
>> John: BLESSED IS HE WHO SHEPHERDS THE WEAK THROUGH THE
VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH AND TAKE A LOOK AT MY LIFE AND
REALIZE THERE'S NOTHING LEFT AS I'VE --
[ SINGING ] GANGSTER'S PARADISE!
>> CUT, CUT, CUT.

>> James: I MEAN, THAT'S NOT THE FIRST PART I LOST TO SAMUEL L.
JACKSON OR I DOUBT WILL BE THE LAST.
>> John: WE CAN BLAME OURSELVES OR BLAME COOLIO FOR WRITING
PROBABLY THE CATCHIEST SONG OF ALL TIME.

MONEY AND THE POWER MINUTE AFTER MINUTE.
>> James: I THINK THAT'S COOLIO.
I THINK IT'S.
>> John: THIS IS COOLIO.
>> James: CATCHY.
>> John: UNBELIEVABLE.
>> James: THAT GUY.
THE TRUTH IS JOHN AND I ONLY DID ONE MORE MOVIE TOGETHER AFTER
THAT AND THAT'S WHEN THINGS TOOK A TURN.
>> INTO THE WOODS TAKE ONE.
>> John: I WISH MORE THAN ANYTHING, MORE THAN THE MOON.
I WISH MORE THAN LIFE.
I WISH WE HAD A CHILD.
