it's great but you produced this. you directed it. you wrote this when did you hear about this story first? >> it's funny. i read -- there's a wonderful novel of the same title that i read around the time we were making "fight club." so, like 20 years ago. >> jimmy: you've been working on this for 20 years >> but, but -- in a way i turned it into this, sort of, a '50s sort of "l.a. confidential" detective sort of a film >> jimmy: it does have that "chinatown" type of vibe to it >> yeah. but the main thing that drew me to this book was the character in it. he is not your bogart, nicholson, sort of detective he's a very, very unusual character who has tourette's syndrome and obsessive compulsive disorder. and this condition makes navigating the world very difficult for him. people treat him very badly. >> jimmy: yeah >> and he has talents that flow from his condition that make him a kind of secret weapon for the detective he works for, bruce willis but that kind of part is kind

of what i tend to really like to lean into >> jimmy: there's not many parts like that out there that you can just grab a script and go, i'll do that no one is writing it you had to do it for yourself. >> yeah, i wrote it for myself >> jimmy: yeah good that's what you've got to do that's what you've got to do [ cheers and applause that's what you do >> right >> jimmy: put the work in. >> but it was a great experience it's a big, new york, epic movie. and i got this cast. alec baldwin and willem dafoe, bruce willis [ cheers ] >> jimmy: bruce willis, willem dafoe is great. >> gugu mbatha-raw, who is this wonderful amazing actress. >> jimmy: she's great. >> and bobby cannavale >> jimmy: how was alec >> alec is an animal >> jimmy: he is. >> as everybody knows. >> jimmy: he's a beast >> he's a beast. but the thing is, like, over in this building, alec, you know, he's one of our great comedians and great satirists. >> jimmy: yeah >> you know what i mean? but we came up on alec, you know, "glengarry glen ross" alec - >> jimmy: he's a good actor. he's a great actor >> and "coffee is for closers only," right

a little club in new york called irving plaza. >> jimmy: you saw radiohead in irving plaza >> yeah, back in the day it was before "ok computer" had come out and they came out and played the record and it was one of those moments -- like, i'm not hip i am not i don't end up at happenings when people say like, "oh, yeah, it was happening." i am never there i am always, like, hearing about these things 30 years in new york and that was one of the only things that i've ever been at where i went, "i was there!" >> jimmy: i was there! >> i was at a happening! >> jimmy: guys, i was cool, yeah >> i was cool. i was in the winner's circle, like, for once >> jimmy: so, radiohead. >> anyway, we've known each other a long time. and i felt, you know, thom and our generation, i think, has really - he's been a songwriter who catches sort of the emotional, you know, longing. but also kind of just the terror and the dissonance of the modern world right?

and their music has such beautiful, melodic, anthemic stuff. but then also just so much fracture in it, right? >> jimmy: yeah >> and i -- my character in this film, that's him in a a nutshell he's kind of a sensitive and funny and thoughtful person. but he has this brain that will not turn off and can -- and the word play. i asked -- i said to thom, look, i want a ballad. i want an old-fashioned sort of jazz ballad that reflects this and i thought he was going to say no, because like everybody in the world wants thom to write music. >> jimmy: yeah >> and like two weeks later, he emailed me at 6:00 in the morning i get this track called "daily battles." i sat on my bed, in the dark, literally crying it made me cry the first time i heard it >> jimmy: what a great line, though "daily battles." >> yeah, it's evocative. it actually affected my view of the film i put the phrase "daily battles" into the film, because it's very much about, i think,

people getting through their own struggles. and the need to have empathy with each other. and take care of each other in our daily battles. and it's an amazing thing. you ask people you know and love to work with you. it's a little nerve-racking, because you don't want that to go badly >> jimmy: yeah, of course. >> and when they deliver something that authentically moves you and makes it great, it's just -- that's the dream. >> jimmy: it worked. i want to show everyone a clip [ cheers and applause here's edward norton in "motherless brooklyn." take a look at this. >> i got something wrong with me that's the first thing to know i've got threads in my heads i've got threads in my heads, man. i twitch and shout a lot it makes me look like a damn freak show >> can't you ever cut that out >> don't touch it, bailey. i'm sorry. but inside my head is an even bigger mess. i can't stop twisting things around words and sounds especially. have to keep playing with them until they come out right. sorry.
