If you did go to high school and then college, there's definitely a solidarity with someone that is from your hometown and knows your mom, and all that stuff. There's this weird politeness that we have, as a society. You don't want to make it hard for anybody.
John Krasinski
We actually try our best to be non-biased, but for me, that was the best movie [Sicario], filmmaking-wise and storytelling-wise, and connected to me the most. I thought it was great.
