You know, he's a special guy, and this is my third project with him.

And I just love the fact that, you know, he's now evolving to a, I call him a man actor versus being a young adult or a child actor.

But when that energy came at him, and it's the scene where he holds his basketball, he's going to pop this guy in the face with it.

On one take, the ball slipped out a little early, you know what I mean?

But don't worry, the ball is plastic.

It's not real, right?

But the point was that the energy that was starting to build up, it caused this visceral reaction.

And for the cameras, that's what I want.

You know, I know it's delicate.

I know that certain words, certain languages are trigger points.

But this film is made to make you feel uncomfortable at times.

It's made to make you feel warm and relaxed when you see how young people can relate to each other and how the older generation is holding on to old school shit that, I can say that?

Yeah.
