>> James: NOW BOB WE HAVE TO
CONGRATULATE YOU ON YOUR.
>> WHAT DISP I DO.
>> James: YOUR STUNNINGLY
BRILLIANT NEW MOVIE.
THE POST.
YOU, TOM HANKS, MERYL STREEP, A
STEVEN SPIELBERG FILM.
>> YEAH.
>> James: TELL EVERYONE WHAT
IT IS ABOUT.
>> THE WORLD HAS BEEN ASKING
WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET
SPIELBERG, HANKS, STREEP AND
ODENKIRK, WHEN WILL IT HAPPEN.
IT IS A GREAT FILM.
I'M SO LUCKY TOZVq PART OF IT.
IT'S ABOUT THE PENTAGON PAPERS
IN 1971 AND THE GOVERNMENT LYING
TO THE PUBLIC AND THE NEWSPAPERS
IN THIS CASE "THE WASHINGTON
POST" ALSO "THE NEW YORK TIMES"
FINDING AND GETTING THE PAPERS.
I PLAY A REPORTER WHO ACTUALLY
HUNTED IT DOWN.
THE PERSON WHO HAD THE PAPERS
DANIEL ELSEBERG AND THEN
PUBLISHING THEM AGAINST THE
WISHES OF THE GOVERNMENT.
AND SORT OF FIGHTING WITH THE
GOVERNMENT TO SHARE THIS
INFORMATION WITH THE PUBLIC AND
IT'S REALLY AMAZING, GRIPPING
STORY.
STEVEN SPIELBERG MAKES IT SO AND
MERYL STREEP IS JUST ASTOUNDING
AND TOM HANKS IS SO MUCH FUN TO
WATCH.
IT IS AN AMAZING CAST.
I'M SO LUCKY TO BE A PART OF IT.
IT WAS VERY INTIMIDATING TO HAVE
STEVEN SPEEGBERG DIRECTING ME.
AND I JUST HAVE TO APOLOGIZE
BECAUSE I KIND OF, I DON'T KNOW
IF ITS FIGHT OR FLIGHT OR
WHATEVER.
BUT HE WAS GIVING ME NOTES THAT
FIRST DAY AND IT'S REALLY LIKE
LINCOLN JUMPING OFFER THE PENNY
TALKING TO YOU.
ARE YOU LIKE-- YOU'RE STEVEN
SPEEGBERG.
AND THEN DO YOU YOUR LINE AND
THEN YOU LOOK AT HIM AND YOU GO
YOU'RE STILL STEVEN SPIELBERG.
HE'S LIKE SAYING MOD LATE IT,
TONE IT DOWN.
AND I JUST FLIPPED OUT AND I
SAID, LOOK, BUDDY, I DON'T KNOW
WHO YOU ARE, I'VE NEVER SEEN
YOUR MOVIES, THAT EVERYONE IS SO
HOT ON.
BUT I WILL DOT ACTING.
AND I WON'T COME BACK THERE AND
TELL PEOPLE WHERE TO PUT LIGHTS.
HOW ABOUT THAT.
AND THEN LATER I DID WATCH HIS
FILM SHARKNADO
PRETTY GOOD, PRETTY GOOD.
I THINK HE SHOULD WORK AGAIN.
IT WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE.
