In promotional interviews for his documentary, Rob Reiner discussed his personal spiritual journey, noting that despite being born Jewish, he explored various religions including Buddhism and Hinduism. Reiner stated that he finds the "Golden Rule" attributed to Jesus to be the most sensible moral framework.
