Is that a humbling experience?
My barber literally said to me, he was like, he was cutting my hand.
He's like, yo, man, you seen Creed?
You seen Creed?
And I was like, no.
He's like, yo, that's the Black Rocky, man.
That's Black Rocky for this generation.
Is that what you were setting out to do when you wrote it?
Because I read a fascinating story.
You wrote this film.
And how does a young black man from a rough neighborhood, like you said, go into making films?
I mean, you said your dad was an ex-football player.
Just the image for me, because I watch a lot of movies.
Just the image that a football player gets called in and the teacher goes, you need to write more.
Yeah.
You should quit football and you should write more.
So you went straight into that?
Creed is amazing.
Fruitvale is amazing.
You are amazing, my friend.
