It was only fitting that up and coming director F. Gary Gray and Ice Cube would team up for their first movie. After all, Gray directed Cube’s “It Was a Good Day” video. Not only had the two worked together before, Gray was also from the South Central area. Actually, the same neighborhood where the movie was filmed, is the same neighborhood where Gray grew up. Several houses in the film were actually houses of friends of the director. The scene where Deebo punches Red, is the house Gray grew up in. We know you remember the scene, but in case you need a laugh for today, re-watch.
