"We knew we were doing something wacky," Reeves, 60, said of making the movie in which he portrays a police officer trying to prevent a bomb from exploding on a city bus – driven by a passenger named Annie (Bullock) – by keeping the speed above 50 mph.

Bullock and Reeves shared the Egyptian Theatre stage with filmmaker Jan de Bont and moderator Jim Hemphill for a lively 50-minute conversation to mark the 30th anniversary of 'Speed.'
