Samuel L. Jackson talked about his friend Bernie Mac who passed away in August and about the movie Soul Men, in which they starred.
Samuel spoke about how hard it is to promote the movie without his friend and about the great memories that they had together: “used to talk about blowing up and being famous and doing all this stuff and all of that” but: “Then, when he got famous, he was here in L.A., and I never saw him because he was too busy doing his TV show every day. I didn’t go by and bother him, but I would run into him at functions, and we got to get together.”
The end of the movie “Soul Men” features a dedication to Bernie Max and Isaac Hayes – “two real soul men.” The singer, who died in August after suffering a stroke, appears in the film as himself, and among the footage we can see Bernie Mac adding some extras with a funny standup comedy act and also an interview.

Soul Men is out in the US today and it’s a very funny movie.
