[ laughter ] ladies and gentlemen, we have a great show for you tonight! [ cheers and applause ] he is onof the stars of, "batman v. superman." henry cavill is here. [ cheers and applause ] she is the star and writer of "my big fat greek wedding 2," nia vardalos is in the house tonight. cheers and applause ] the wonderful, nia vardalos. and he is a former attorney general of the united states, eric holder is stopping by tonight. [ cheers and applause ] i do want to take a moment to address the awful incident that happened in belgium -- incidents, i should say, thaha happened in belgium this morning. what a terrible thing to wake up to. there is nothing i can say or anyone here can say to make anyone feel much better about that. but we do want to say that our

the belgian people, and the people of brussels. so, that's the best we can do, i wish we could do more. [ applause ] moving on, president obama completed his two-day trip to cuba today. he is the first u.s. president to visit that country in 88 years. and, in a speech today, he called on the cuban government to expand social and political freedoms for its citizens. for more on this, it's time for "a closer look." [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: obama's trip to cuba is historic for any number of reasons. but it's especially striking given that in many ways, cuba lags behind the rest of the modern world. just look at this photo of air force one flying over cuba. [ light laughter ] it looks like it's traveling back in time. [ laughter ] that's a a force one, as piloted by doc brown. [ laughter ] now, with normalized relations comes the promise of econoc freedom to cuba. and american businesses have already begun expanding there. including airbnb, and even starwood resorts.

that it will refurbish and manage two hels in the cuban capital havana. and i apologize in advance, cuba because once you got hotels, it's only a matter of time before you're inundated with drunk american college kids on spring break and that's the real bay of pigs. [ laughter ] still, opening up cuba to the free market offers the hope of economic cooperation. especially when it comes to one of cuba's greatest exports, cigars. there's already major demand among american consumers for cuban cigars whh makes them a natural fit. or as one cigar salesman told cbs -- >> i feel it's like two lovers that are ready to meet, you know? there's a romance here, it feels both sides really want it to take place. nono it would be nice to just see it happen. >> seth: okay, something's going on with that guy, right? [ laughter ] i mean, either he really loves cigars or he's harboring a secret unrequited love for that reporter. [ laughter ] "i just feel if two people feel a connection, even if they just met five minutes ago, for a tv interview on a porch, they should just go for it."

also, two lovers is a terrible analogy for cigars. if there's a cigar involved, it's one lover saying to the other, "that smells like ass, put it out or i'm leaving." [ lavghter ] now, despite the thawing of u.s.-cuba relations, this trip still had some awkward moments. because in some ways, the leaders of these two countries want different things. obama wants to engage with cuba to open that country to the rest ofhe world. and cuban president raul castro wants to use the meeting with obama to gain legitimacy on the world stage. and that awkwardness was never more on display than when the two men shared the most awkward handshake in presidential history. [ lauger and applause ] what? look. what is -- look at obama going rag dodo limp. [ laughter ] that might be a puppet's arm. [ laughter ] that is the handshake of a aan who does not want a photo taken. [ laughter ] but it's understandable that obama played handshake defense given how much flak he took earlier that day for being photographed in front of a mural

many criticized obama, as this was sese as giving an implicit endorsement to urban outfitters. [ laughter ] conservatives are upset at the photo. but remember, when you visit communist countries, you are going to take a picture in front of a communist statue. even ronald reagan was once photographed in moscow under a bust of vladamir lenin. and george w. bush was photographed in vietnam in front of a statue of communist leader ho chi minh. or as george w. bush calls ho chi minh, "the guy from the billy joel song." [ laughter ] birth control, ho chi minh, richard nixon, back again. [ light laughter ] and my personal favorite, "trouble in the suez." [ laughter ] or, "belgians in the congo." i go back and forth. [ laughter ] as for the obama/castro press conference, the handshake wasn't the only awkward ment. because at obama's urging, castro actually toto questions from the press. including a question about the jailing of political dissidents in cuba. anancastro shocked journalists, by denying that the government keeps political prisoners. >> did you ask if we have political prisoners?

prisoners and i will release them immediately. just mention the list. what political prisoners? >> seth: "what political prisoners?" that's exactly what you say when you are holding political prisoners. [ laughter ] that's like a kid with chocolate all over his face saying, "i dn't eat the sweets, mamma, i've been a good boy. but my tummy hurts!" [ laughter ] in fact, cuba does still jail political dissidents. according to human rights watch, dozens of political prisoners remain in cuban prisons. although, even if raul castro was for it, obama should know, it's very hard to close a prison in cuba. but -- that's not here nor there. that's for a different day. [ laughter ] at the e e of the day, the juxtaposition of new businesses flooding cuba and the jailing of dissidents reminds us that while engagement is good, more progress needs to be made. but president obama deserves credit for choosing diplomacy over isolation. and there are signs obama's visit is already having a positive impact for some cubans. as one cuban told the new york times, "everyone wants to know how we cubans feel about obama

i'm practically just happy that giant pothole finally got filled in. so if i have to thank him for it, thanks obama." it's nice to hear someone y, "thanks obama." without sarcasm for once. this has been "a closer look." [ cheers and applause ] we'll be back with more "late night. [ cheers and applause ] the nissan roguewith intuitive all-wheel drive.

drink, then went to bed and i passed out, a bit jet lagged and woke up to the sound of my door closing in my hotel room. of course,e, then realized i was on the outside of my door and i had no clothes on. >> seth: his story's a dream for me. >> and obviously -- [ laughter ] back to back. >> seth: so, wait, no clclhes? >> no clothes. >> seth: okay. >> i gotten up to go for a pee. and the way the bed was set up was that at the foot of the bed was the entrance to the hotel, my room. and to the left of the bed was where the bathroom was. and so -- >> seth: i like that you'r'r blaming room layout, 'cause i'm pretty sure that hadn't been a problem before. >> wait and see. i got out of the right sidi of the bed and just went straight to the first door i saw and woke up completely naked in the hallway.

hallway's a pretty big problem. >> seth: yeah. >> but i needed to pee. and i was desperately thinking, where am i gonna pee? >> seth: so, naked was very secondary for you. [ laughter ] >> at this stage v ery secondary. >> seth: got it. >> so, i was like naked and peeing in a hotel rowm was pretty bad. or a hotel hallway. so, i was looking up and down the hallway and i s checking out pot plants and all sorts. >> seth: plants, based on every comedy i've ever seen, a potted plant's what you want when you're naked in a hallway. >> yeaea but i couldn't carry this thing around. big potted plants. >> seth: got it. >> i thought, do i pee in there? what if someone catches me, it's pretty bad. i remember there being a fire escape and so i ran up this fire escape, 'cause i, you know, the pool area on top of the tennis court and i thought maybe ere's a bathroom up there. make this worse? >> yeah. [ laughter ] so, i ran up the fire escape to the roof. and it turned out to be a tennis court, which is all closed off. >> seth: what time was it? >> this was i think around 3:00 a.m. >> seth: okay, gotcha. >> and i then thout i've gotta pee. like, this is geting bad now.

of the hotel. [ laughter ] i felt like a little boy again. >> seth: yeah. [ laughter ] >> and then it dawned on me that i still hadn't quite solved the problem, 'cause i was locked outside my hotel room naked and on the roof now. >> seth: right. >> so, i then thought, you know what, you just gotta suck it up, get downstairs and ask for your key. >> seth: if i was naked, sucking it up would be the first thing i'd do. [ laughter ] >> i realized -- [ cheers and applause ] i'm glad you went with that kind ofucking it up. and so, i thought, you know what, ride the elevator down. be a man about it. and i got in the elevator, went down to the lobby and i thoughgh okay, this guys gonna laugh at me. walked into the reception, i said to the receptionist, i'm like, this is rely embarrassing -- sounded like that, really embarrassing. i locked myself out of my hotet room and can i have my key to get back in. and he says "yeah, of course, what room you in? doesn't bat an eye, doesn't even look up.

does this happen at the hotel? [ laughter ] >> seth: yeah. >> like, why have i met no one else in the hallway at this stage? high fiving naked dudes walking pass. >> seth: the door? you get wrong door? yeah, wrong door. >> yeah, you too? so then he said, i'll call security and security walked me back upstairs. which was an awkward elevator ride, by the way. [ laughter ] and he was a bit more freaked out than the receptionist. clearly his first time. and let me back in. but i was pretty sure -- i didn't sleep for the rest of that night and i was pretty sure that i w gonna have been caught on camera and lost the job. >> seth: yeah, that's not how -- that's not a good way to introduce superman to the world. >> i now put -- i now put chairs up against the hotel door every hotel that i sleep in. >> seth: well, thank you so much for sharing that and thank you so much for being here. congrats on the film. >> thank you.

[ cheers and applause ] >> seth: welcome back to "late night" everybody. our next guest served as the united states attorney general for six years under president obama. please welcome to the show, eric holder. [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: how are you? >> it's good to be here. >> seth: you look well. >> yeah, when you get away from house republicans, this tends to make you look better. >> seth: you do. you look younger. but you do kind of have the obama. was your hair that gray before you re attorney general? >> it was not this gray and i had more of it.

>> seth: thank you on behalf of america for giving it away for us. >> these are the sacrifices i prepare to make for our country. >> seth: thank you very much. so, real quick, in your own words, how would you describib the job of attorney general? >> it's a tough job.b. the attorney general is the chief law enforcement officer in the country. so you have the responsibility of enforcing criminal laws. but there's also an anti-trust division, a civil division, environmental and actual resources division. so everything that the government does that has some kind of legal connection, the attorney general is ultimately responsible for it. >> seth: you, in your career, have prosecuted terrorists for their acts. i would like to get ur thoughts on the tragedy in brussels and the difficulty not only in catching people like this but prosecuting them. >> obviously, my thoughts and prayers are with the belgian people. and especially -- inelgium who works so closely with them and trying to deal with these issues. these are tough cases to prosecute. but we have shown, i think in the united states we have the capability of trying to take in our civilian courts as opposed to those misguided individuals.

to try them in military court. we have e have faith in our system of justice, which is the best in the world and we have handled hundreds of these e ses in the united states. >> seth: to build against thatat is one of the things that became hard to accomplish in your time s having 9/11 trials. that was something that would have taken place in federal court if you hadt your way. is there any future for that? >> well, you know, this is one of those things where i don't want to be boastful or anything but i was 100% right and my critics were 100% wrong. >> seth: that's not boastful. that doesn't sound boastful at all. >> it's factual. it's factual. [ laughter ] >> seth: that's factual, yeah. >> when i said we should try khalid sheikh mohammed here in manhattan in federal court. if we would have done that, he would have been on death row right now as opposed to wallowing in guantanamo for six years or so with no prostects. he's going to go to trial. it's because people lost faith in our system of justice. >> seth: another thing, i feel like many people are losing faith in now, we o oiously have an opening on the supreme court. you dealt with them closer than most.

republicans refusing to vote on a replacement and is that obstructionism in your mind? >> i think it's the height of irresponsibility. not at full strength or make i until this time next year under mcconnell is talking about means that many important decisions the court will consider will do so understaffed. we could potentially go without a full supreme court for almost a year which i believe will be the longest time that that has happened since the civil war. especially given the fact that we have merrick garland, who is a very qualified, mainstream judge republicans have said positive things about him before. he is ready and he ought to be on the court. >> seth: now, i want to ask about how you first met president obama. is it true that you met at a dinner party in chicago? >> i'm now -- no longer attorney general, so i can tell the truth. no, wewectually met, we were both born in kenya. [ laughter ] ] his village came over to my

>> seth: understood, yeah. >> it was a social gathering. he and i hatched a plan. we both -- he was younger than me. we both said, "you know what? this kenya thing's nlt working out." i said, "i'm with you, barack." he said, "why don't we go to the united states?" and so we migrated, tramp steamer and we climbed over a big wall, i think it was in mexico. >> seth: okay, gotchya. [ laughter ] you just climb over them. so, even if there was a long wall, you would, you would have made it. >> well if it's a ten foot wall, you just get a 12 fo ladder. >> seth: there you go, okay. [ laughter ] thank you for being honest because obviously, that is something you had to keep from the people. >> i was just kidding, just kidding, just kidding. i was born in the bronx. >> seth: right. [ laughter ] though you did meet at a dinner party.y. you met him at a dinner party. and then he gives you this job. you know, i want to talk real quick ababt your legacy because you did do it for six years. one of the things, a credit to you, is you announced in 2011 that you would not enforce the defense of marriage act which define marriages between a man and woman. this is a huge step towards the legalization of gay marriage which the supreme court did a

what brought you, because i feel like a lot of people say that their opinions, their feelings evolved on gay marriage. and i would imagine that the department of justice, there was a lot of conversion about the decisions to not enforce d.o.m.a. >> the department was actually pretty split. the tradition of the department is to defend&any statute that congress passes as constitutional if there is some basis for that and there were the traditionalists who said that's what we need to do. we also have the ability to look at the statute from afresh. and it just seemed to me that, if you look at the history of the defense of marriage@act, all the ugly things that were said in its passage, it was time to put our government, my justice department on the right side of history and for marriage equality and more broadly, more equality for all of our lesbian and gay brothers and sisters. and so i think the decision i made was historically the right the very conservative supreme court just a few months later. obviously. prosecutors, i think we have bad guys away.

often leads, i think more often than no, to less people being in jail as opposed to more. explain the importance of having the right people in jail and not the wrong people. >> i mean, think we have to use limited resources that we have in our criminal justice system to make sure we have the right peop in jail for the right length of time. and i think, in the past, we have, the war on drugs put low level drug offenders in jail for too long a period of time, which is banarupting the system. one part of the justice department's b!dget now goes to the bureau of prisons. and to the extent that if we don't check that, it's going to grow and grow and grow which will exclude our ability to fund the fbi, the dea. any other parts of the department. ahd there's just the justice thing as well. you have people serving 10, , , 20 year sentences for non violent crimes. and that i think is inconsistent with who we say we are as a people. >> seth: now one criticism has been that -- >> a criticism of me? >> seth: yes, i'm going to be real quick. i'm sure i'm 100% wrong. there were not -- >> i'm supposed to be your guest. >> seth: i know. that's why i was really nice to

[ laughter ] >> last time i'm doing this show. no wall street prosesetions. no wall street bankers went to jail after something we can agree, you know, sort of turned this country upside down as far as our financial system went. why were there no bankers in jail? >> there were bankers that did go to jail. i think people are concerned that these very high level bankers didn't go to jail. but, i think you have to understand, if we could have made those cases, we certainly would have. they are the kinds of things that are career defining. people come to the justice department to make these kinds of cases. and given the statutes that we had to work with, the burden proof that we had to meet, we were simply unable to do that. if we could have made the cases te certainly would have. and as i love the department, i made suggestcons to congress about changes in the law so that a situation like this would not repeat itself. >> seth: i'm sure if you told congress, then everying will be fine next time. >> they listen to me all the time. all the time. >> sh: they listen to you all the time. why wouldn't they? last thing i want to ask, you

for president who keeps talking about making america great again. and i think talking about this bygone era, obviously you've done a lot for civil rights. is it worrisome to you that someone is talking about this@ america of the past that pre-dates all of these improvements in civil rights. all these changes that brought this country where it is today. >> making america great again, america is great. america is great, has been great and will be great. we don't want to go back to a past, at least i think in donald trump's mind, that america really never existed or maybe exists only a select number of people. if you are a person of color, if you were gay, the america of 40 and 50 years ago was not the most hospitable place. we want to say where we are. build on the progress that we have made and make sure the america of the 21st century is better than the one that was in the past. give up the little stupid hats and lets work together and make a better country. [ cheers and applause ] >> seth: all right, that sounds like a plan. thank you so much for being here. i really appreciate it. eric holder, everybody. we'll be right back.
