Academy Award-winning filmmaker Spike Lee joins Jon Stewart to discuss his new movie, "Highest 2 Lowest", in cinemas and now streaming on Apple TV+. They talk about Lee's experiences over the years working with the film's star, Denzel Washington, the high-stakes story, what he learned from his parents growing up in Brooklyn, and if it's the Knicks' year.
