Tangerine

Look. My boyfriend, my husband.

Hey, Mila, did you see Nash? That little Negro.

She's getting skinnier and skinnier.

Everyone comes to America and gets fat.

Even I gained weight.

But this girl gets skinnier.

I don't gain or lose.

You always weigh the same.

Mom, I'm sorry. I spilled a little bit.

Where are the fruits? Fruits.

Coming right up.

She loves that dog.

She loves that dog very much.

I don't like dogs.

Maybe I'll get used to it.

Everything requires getting used to.

You'll get used to a lot more than that.

Again you want to smoke?

Eat something. Please help yourself.

How are you, Razmik?

Good. How are you?

Good. Thank God.

How is Ashot?

Good. He's growing old... With me.

Any business out there today?

Let her grow up a little and then Yeva can start working also.

Well, I came here to help with the child so they can work.

That's the right thing to do.

That's what grandmothers are for.

So they can help take care of my sweetie pie.

Ashken, she looks like you.

No, she looks more like Razmik.

Especially her smile.

Come here, sweetie.

Come and sit with Daddy.

Merry Christmas.

Good to see you.

Come here, baby.

Has she eaten?

She doesn't eat this kind of food. I will feed her later.

Let's toast to the head of this household.

All the best to you and your family.

Thank you. Wishing you the same.

To your health.

Ashken, you have a great son-in-law.

He's great but he gets tired too much.

I'm going to go to work.

Now?

Yes, I didn't earn a penny today.

But we're eating.

- So what? - It's Christmas Eve.

So what?

I have no patience for her. Make sure she doesn't make a fuss.

I'll take care of it.

Forgive me, but I have to go to work.

What do you mean you have to leave?

You just got home.

I haven't made a penny today. I'm going to work for a few hours.

It's Christmas and I have guests.

It's okay, Mom.

It's okay. You don't have to make money today.

It's Christmas.

What do you mean?

If I don't make money, how do we live?

- It's okay, Mom. - It's Christmas Eve.

Christmas is for Americans. For us, it's another work day.

You live in America now.

What did he say?

Yeva, what did he say?

He said he must go.

He speaks English but he doesn't celebrate Christmas.

He should have stayed home tonight.

I know but his real Christmas is on the 6th.

Today isn't his real Christmas.

He was the only man at the table.

He was pouring us cognac. Now we have to pour it ourselves.

Mom, he's the only one working and supporting this household.

Let's not let this ruin our night.

Mother, I'm not discussing this.

I'm your mother. If I don't talk about it, who will?

Mother, stop.

I'm not cleaning up. I'm going to bed.

Are you Armenian?

Yeah.

- What's your name, son? - Karo.

Karo, do you know Razmik?

Which Razmik?

Razmik Simonian. He is one of your drivers.

Yes. Of course. I know him very well.

I need you to take me to him right away. Please.

Where do you think he might be?

I am his mother-in-law.

Oh. He should be around the West Hollywood area.

I will find him for you.
