Director Ron Shelton and retired LA police officer Ron Souza bring crime on the streets of Hollywood to the big screen - in a comedic way - in the buddy cop movie, "Hollywood Homicide." Starring Harrison Ford as veteran detective, Joe Gavilan, and heartthrob Josh Hartnett as his young partner, K.C. Calden, "Hollywood Homicide" follows the partners as they track down the killer(s) responsible for murdering a rap group.

Harrison Ford and girlfriend Calista Flockhart worked the red carpet at the Los Angeles Premiere of "Hollywood Homicide." Ford's enthusiasm for the film was apparent even through his short, snappy answers.

HARRISON FORD ('Joe Gavilan')

Why do you think Hollywood was selected as the setting for this film?
Hollywood is a good [setting]. It's just the environment. Hollywood's got its own particular environment.

Did you do your own stunts?
I did my own running, jumping and falling down.

Did you do any research for this character?
I sort of had friends in the LAPD and we talked about it.

How is this movie different from other buddy cop movies we've seen in the past?
This one's funnier.

Did you have fun doing it?
Absolutely.

You're character's a cop who sells real estate on the side. If the acting thing doesn't work out, are you thinking about a career in real estate?
I don't think so, that's a tough job.

How was teaming up with Josh Hartnett?
It was fun, great.

Was it tough to develop the buddy chemistry between the two of you?
I don't think so. It's all there on screen.

And about the infamous car accident, did Josh really cause it?
No, it was all my fault (smiling). It was all my fault.
