Coogler: but then in the third reel suddenly its about vampires doing a siege on a bar?
Quentin Tarantino: oh yeah yeah definitely
Tarantino: who hasn't?

Coogler: music can bring heal the afflicted, soothe the soul…
Coogler: transport you to another place!
Coogler: why, i'm always saying that musicians are the storytellers of the modern age

Coogler: and let me tell you there's no music more powerful
Coogler: then delta blues
Coogler: it can literally rip through the veil of reality into the world beyond
Victor LaValle: this is true

Coogler: there's these two brothers who want to start a juke joint
Coogler: but these vampires try to destroy them with the power
Coogler: of extremely lame white music
