01:28It's had a lot
01:29But also just Robin with my family with my nieces and nephews and my mom and knowing his mom
01:34Yeah, you know knowing his brother and just it was really the the personal bond and the trust
01:40In each other and then the humor always the humor and then on that film. We had the young Kirsten Dunstan. Yeah sweet Kirsten

01:53And nothing makes me happier

02:09I know
02:11Well in this new movie we could see you teaming up with the rock again
