Yellow (2006) Movie Script
Okay, pa, I'm not
a little girl anymore.
I'm gonna be late.
I gotta go.
Any orders?
You know.
It's so hot out there.
Phew!
Amaryllis, we have a problem.
What?
Javier called.
He can't come, he's sick,
so I need you to go
and clean the toilet, okay?
What are you talking about?
I've worked here
longer than anyone.
Get Tito to do it.
Besides, I have deliveries.
They can wait.
I'm asking you to do it.
When their pizzas get cold,
I don't get any tips.
You know that.
I'm not cleaning any toilet.
Amaryllis, since when
do you tell me
how to do my job?
Great, here's the mop.
Hand me the pizza.
Amaryllis, where do you
think you're going?
Now, I'll take the pizza,
you take the mop, okay?
Thank you.
There's the bucket.
(REGGAETON SONG
PLAYING ON STEREO)
God bless you.
God be with you.
What you want?
Scrambled eggs?
Sure, why not? The usual.
Runny, with a lot of bacon?
The same as always.
What numbers?
7-4-8.
Mami, we're out of eggs.
Uh-huh.
I'm going out.
Where to?
I gotta go see this guy
about something.
When are you coming back?
See you later.
Franco, peace out, man.
CARMEN:
Your boyfriend's a joker.
I'm gonna go buy the eggs.
That Dominican just
doesn't have any class.
I don't know, sweetheart.
I don't think he's so bad.
I think he's got a good heart.
Don't start, Franco, please.
Don't start.
(CHATTERING ON TV
IN LIVINGROOM)
Change the bandage.
You wouldn't believe my boss.
Tell me about it.
The old asshole.
He's really got
it out for me, man.
He's only 23.
Really?
Yeah.
Don't worry about it.
Sit down,
watch television with us.
Yeah, your mom's right.
You should
check this shit out.
It's really funny, baby.
Did you hear anything I said?
Uh-huh.
Sure. Something about
a bald-headed shit.
Yes, yes,
Mrs. Juarez's
cousin is bald.
CARMEN: Now let me
watch the show.
ANGELO:
He's a bald motherfucker.
Baby, turn the TV back on.
Why should I?
You're not listening to me.
Amaryllis, relax.
The TV stays on.
Hey, just back off.
Says who?
You're not
the only one making money.
Well, tell me who does.
Why, you think selling
dime bags on the street
helps us out? Please.
What are you talking about?
You can't be throwing
my shit out like that.
It's the truth.
Come on.
I got my own money, my savings.
You'll see. You'll see.
I'm gonna take that money and
buy a great big ranch someday.
I don't owe my family fucking A.
You must be tripping, right?
Mama, has he ever
said anything to you
about a savings account?
Let's make a deal.
Put your shirt on
and try growing up.
Pack of cigarettes.
Four.
I heard about your papi.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Thank you.
(SALSA MUSIC
PLAYING ON STEREO)
Hey. Hey, come on.
Angelo, come.
Come on, let's dance.
Angelo, dance.
Dance. Come on.
Like I taught you.
CARMEN: Wait a minute.
A toast to my
late husband, Franco.
He was a great classical dancer.
ANGELO: To Franco.
But an even better salsa dancer.
A bottle of water, please.
Can I...
Can I ask you a favor?
Can I stay with you tonight?
Please.
Come in.
Have a seat.
Thank you.
Just in case you get cold.
Thank you.
Good night.
Good night.
Go to Marcello's bar.
Over there, baby.
Come on, baby,
come on.
No, no.
Marcello's is closed, baby.
Come over here.
I want to go Marcello's bar.
ANGELO: Marcello's is
all closed down, mamita.
It's all closed down.
Come this way.
I have to get out of here.
I have to dance.
I have a cousin, Jorge Guzman.
He lives in the East Village
in New York.
He doesn't have a telephone,
but he calls me
every once in a while.
I know he could help you out.
You could stay with him.
Here, this is
for the ticket.
No, no, no.
Yes, take it, please.
Come on. No.
Take it. Please. Please.
How much is it?
Not important, forget about it.
I'm not sure how
I'll ever pay you back.
Thank you for everything.
Just be careful.
Oh, baby, you're late.
Come on, let's go.
Come on. Give me the apples.
Don't worry about the apples.
Come on, I'll take that.
We gotta go now. Come on.
Look, all you gotta do
is get him to sign this,
"To Mr. and Mrs. Emory.
"God bless, Langston Hughes."
You're confused.
My name is Amaryllis Campos.
Goddamn student.
How many times
have I told you...
I'm here...
Wait, listen to me.
I'm telling you,
Monday through Thursday,
1:00 to 3:00.
Those are my office hours.
That's it.
You don't come to my house.
It's not a library.
Pound, Eliot, Perse, I lost
all of them to students.
Give me my...
Let me get my stuff.
Adios.
Hasta la vista, my darling
Damn it.
Sir, give me my stuff.
That's my stuff.
Okay.
It's okay. I'm sorry.
Can I help you?
What is the problem?
What is wrong?
I'm looking for Jorge Guzman.
I'm a friend of his cousin
in Puerto Rico.
I'm supposed to stay with him.
Oh.
Okay. Well, I...
I haven't seen Jorge
for a couple of months.
Sometimes he's gone
for a couple of months,
sometimes he's gone
for over a year.
But the best of luck to you,
and God bless you and all.
Take care.
What are you doing?
I'm tired.
I can't let you stay.
This is Jorge's.
This is it.
You think I can stay?
It's no skin off my ass.
I'll get your bag.

Hi. Can I help you?
I thought you were
looking for dancers.
We are, honey. We are.
No, but I thought
a different kind of dancing.
Yeah, baby,
keep walking like that.
MILES: "Set me free
from this dark prison
And henceforth and forever
"Men shall know
of your achievements
"Calling you Kayoshk,
the seagulls,
"Kayoshk, the Noble Scratchers
"Set me free
from this dark prison
"Henceforth and forever"
Hello.
Hi.
Longfellow.
Song of Hiawatha.
Do you know it?
Nope.
Ah.
I don't think I got
your name the other day.
Amaryllis.
Oh!
The shepherdess.
It's close to yellow.
Well, the amaryllis
flower is actually
red.
You know, that's my boy's name.
His name is Red.
His given name is
actually Augustus,
but we called him Red.
So, maybe we should meet.
Well, actually,
I haven't seen him
for quite some time.
Do you like garbanzo beans?
Yeah.
A-ha!
Can I sit at the table?
Please excuse me.
Excuse my manners.
I'm very sorry.
Please have a seat.
Thank you.
Please.
Are you comfortable?
Yeah. Yeah.
Very good.
Actually, I'm not a bad cook.
This is my family's
recipe for soup.
You should really mind
your own goddamn business,
you know.
I'm sorry.
You come into
someone else's house
and you take
something that doesn't
belong to you.
I'm sorry.
You know,
it's like almost 10:00 now,
and I think I have
to read some poetry,
a new book from
Langston Hughes.
So, maybe you should leave.
I wanna hear one of the poems.
Can you read one?
Okay.
The name of this poem
is A Dream Deferred
by the great,
great Langston Hughes.
Okay?
"What happens to
a dream deferred?
"Does it dry up like
a raisin in the sun?
"Or fester like a sore
"And then run?
"Does it stink like rotten meat?
"Or does it
crust and sugar over
like a syrupy sweet?
"Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load
"Or does it explode?"
JOELI: Amaryllis,
this is Jack.
You ever dance before?
Yeah.
Yeah?
You ever strip?
Umm...
Well, that's okay.
Everybody's
gotta start sometime.
So,
what kind of dancing you do?
Modern. Well,
classical and ballet,
and jazz, modern dance.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
That's great. That's great.
You know, because
I used to be a choreographer.
Like big time, you know.
I like to give my girls
a personalized routine.
A onstage identity
that really reflects
and expresses who they are.
For me,
it's all about the girls.
It's a professional gig,
understand?
I mean, lots of my girls,
they dance here
just for the money,
while they were waiting
for legit dance jobs.
I'm cool with that.
I am very cool.
You see that girl over there?
She just finished
an Off-Broadway show.
On Broadway?
That's right.
That's the kind of
people I'm looking for.
Look, it's a seller's market
if you're beautiful,
and I have to be
perfectly frank with you.
You're like a drop-dead
knockout, Amaryllis.
So, what's it gonna be?
I'll start you out
at a 100 a day?
Yeah, plus, you keep your tips.
JACK: Okay, Amaryllis.
You're on the floor.
Strut your stuff, kid.
Listen, Amaryllis, I love
everything you're doing.
Everything.
It's athletic, it's sexy,
it's sensual, it's beautiful.
But take your clothes off.
Okay, take the shirt off, honey.
Five, six, seven,
and plie, releve.
Plie, releve.
Amaryllis, plie, releve.
Amaryllis, pay attention.
Plie, releve.
JACK: Lose the skirt, darling.
Amaryllis, arabesque.
Arabesque. Arabesque.
I need to see your tits, Yellow.
By the way,
that's your name from now on,
Yellow.
Eyes open, baby.
Come on. Come on.
It's just like
losing your virginity.
First strip is always the worst.
Oh, my God, over here.
It's okay. Come on.
Here. Here we go.
Why don't you use this one
till Jack and Joeli comes up
with a theme for you, okay?
Okay.
Pretend you're not here.
Pretend you're someplace else.
Someplace fun and alive,
with the man you love.
You're dancing
for the man you love.
He loves your body.
He loves the way you move.
And not just because
he wants to fuck you.
When I'm dancing,
I call that man Charlie.
And when I'm done, I always say,
"How did you like that,
Charlie?"
And he always says,
"Sensational."
JACK: Hello, hello, hello!
And welcome,
ladies, gentlemen...
ALL: Let's go, let's go!
And children of
all ages, you know?
Tonight,
I'm gonna introduce to you
a new dancer at the Club La Dor.
A real Puerto Rican beauty.
Put your hands together.
Give it up for Yellow!
What's her name?
Nina.
Nina.
She's a cutie.
So, anyway, Tony left me,
and I didn't have any money.
You know,
never finished high school.
I don't have any skills.
Honey,
every girl got some skills.
You know what I'm saying?
You see Christian tonight?
Sure did.
Who's that?
He's one of the new regulars.
Yeah, he was the cute guy.
Oh, my God.
You remember?
Across the table,
short hair, black shirt.
He makes a lot of money.
And he pays well
to know the dancers better.
How do you know that?
You should ask her.
JOELI: Represent. Represent.
What?
No, it never crossed my mind
You might try to hide from me
You would set
the place on fire
With your long and broken
wrecking shriek
Always aiming for the truth
Sometimes missing
just one word
Something really shaken loose
Look around to see
the cities burn
It's just the way
I'm feelin'
Miles? I didn't know
you worked here.
What the hell
are you doing here?
Buying groceries.
It's none of your
damn business why I'm here.
This is my volunteer thing.
I'm giving back
to the community.
I bet they appreciate that.
Yeah, well,
a lot of teachers, you know,
they come here, they volunteer,
give back to the community.
That's what I'm doing. Okay?
So you are a teacher?
Yes, at NYU. Well, usually,
but I'm on sabbatical now.
I'm a professor of poetry.
Do you write poems?
Many, many volumes. Yes.
So, which one is
your favorite one?
Can I hear it?
The only reason
that I'm going to
read this poem to you
is because you really are
a persistent pain in the ass
and I like you very much.
Okay, cool.
Okay.
The name of this poem
is Yellow, Color of Forgiveness.
Color of Forgiveness.
Thank you.
Okay.
Pray for me and
I'll pray for you
Pray for the wicked
and the evil, too
Pray for the genius
and the not so smart
Who with their smiles
still touch our hearts
Pray for those who would destroy
All the baby girls
and all the baby boys
With their evil toys
Pray for the robber,
pray for the thief
Pray for the loss of our belief
Pray for those
who can no longer pray
Pray for the loss of another day
My mother and my father
have gone from here
Others I've loved
from yesteryear
As I grow old and
move toward sleep
Releasing pains
I've held so deep
Deeper than the soul's regret
Memories I've yet to forget
O hope, my love,
don't leave me yet
Your lips speak
softly of the light
As I move humbly into night
ELIZABETH: Mama Joeli.
Hey, what's up, Liz?
Look, I'm having
a little trouble
with my costume here.
That's chic, baby. Chic.
It fucking falls the moment
I walk on the stage, Joeli.
They wanna see your titties.
What's the big deal?
You give them everything at once
and the game's over.
Trust me.
Well, c'est la vie.
Hey, Bette Davis...
JOELI: I'm going for a smoke.
This guy.
I used to dance ballet
since I was a little girl.
My father was my teacher.
He danced for Henri Clementine.
Shit.
All right.
Talking about dancing,
I got to tell you something.
I know this producer.
He's doing a reggaeton video.
No offense, but you
should audition for him.
Music is music, you know.
And besides,
let me tell you something.
You're a great,
great dancer, all right?
And besides, I know for sure
you're gonna get the part.
So when you're in,
you can tell them
about my costumes
and probably
I can do the wardrobe.
Ted, put on some reggaeton.
I gonna show you
how to move, all right?
Yeah! Oh, baby!
He doesn't
live here anymore, okay?
He's not here.
I'm sorry.
I'm not here to see Jorge.
You're not here to see Jorge?
No, I'm here to see Miles Emory.
Who are you?
I'm his son.
Red?
You're Red?
No one's called me Red
since I was a kid.
Oh, well,
he talks to me about you.
So, he lives here?
Yeah. Yeah, right here.
Well, I knocked on
that door, no one came.
Because he's probably
at the store.
Which store?
The grocery store.
That's where he works.
Listen, could you please
tell him that I came by?
Yeah.
I'm staying at
the Pioneer Hotel in Midtown.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
CHOREOGRAPHER:
Okay, so basically, I need
three men and three women.
You guys know the drill.
Let's get to it.
Come on, now.
Right. We're gonna start off
with the right arm,
and it goes one, two, and three.
Okay. One, two.
One, two,
and three, four, and five,
six, seven, and eight.
Back to one.
Okay. Cut the music.
Okay. Now, let me just see
these three guys over here.
Keeps bumping into me.
Who?
The choreographer.
The choreographer
was doing good.
I think it was the other guy
that choreographer was...
It was him!
I'm sorry.
You know what, honey,
you can go now. Thank you.
Guys, take it from here.
JOELI: I'll talk to you
later, okay?
What's going on? Wait.
Miles.
Miles.
Oh, Jehovah's Witness.
Oh, Jehovah's Witness,
Jehovah's Witness.
Red came to see you.
Oh, he wants some money.
He wants some...
I don't have
any goddamn money.
Okay, no, listen...
Goddamn money.
Goddamn freeloader.
Get out!
Goddamn freeloader.
He wants something.
He always wants something,
you know.
And he'll think I'm a sucker.
That's what it is.
He'll think that
here comes Miles,
he's the sucker.
No, I don't think
you're a sucker.
You're not a sucker.
Okay
Oh, yeah.
Oh, you're that new girl
that my boy's been
talking about. Maria.
Red was here.
Stop. I'm Amaryllis.
And we had soup
right here. Look.
You know, somewhere
in the process of history,
human biology
trumped mathematics...
Okay. Okay.
I know for a fact
that the devil
comes with many names.
And it was really good.
Yeah. Yeah.
"In those days,
the evil spirits
The Manitos of mischief
"All fearful, all fearful,
Hiawatha's wisdom"
Stop! We were right there.
Bye-bye.
Here you go.
What the hell is that?
That's your costume, honey.
My costume?
Mmm-hmm.
Joeli wants you to wear
body paint for your act.
Is he crazy?
Mmm-hmm.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING
AND WHISTLING)
for 01nonton.com release
...
Shh! Be still. Be still.
Easy.
Are you the guy from the club?
What happened?
You cut yourself up pretty bad.
I'll check back on you.
The dressings are changed
around 2:00 p.m.
So, all I need you to do
is to check the IV, all right?
Is it bad?
No, it's okay.
There was a doctor here earlier.
What's his name?
Oh, I believe it's Dr. Kyle.
Yeah, that's right,
Dr. Christian Kyle.
Would you rather have
a female doctor?
No, no, no, it's okay.
Don't worry about it.
He's very competent.
AMARYLLIS: Ow.
ELIZABETH: I'm sorry.
I'm trying to be gentle.
Hi, girls.
Hi.
How you doing?
I'm good. I'm all right.
You're gonna cover all this
with makeup, right?
Yeah. Yeah. We were
just getting to that.
It's okay.
Yeah.
Yeah. Listen, that's okay.
Why don't you
take the night off?
Yeah, you go home, you relax.
Forget about dancing.
Oh, no, no, please.
I wanna dance.
You're still beautiful.
You're still my Yellow.
You just need to take
some time off, you dig?
What?
For you.
It's the least I could do.
Thanks.
Hey, who ever said
I wasn't a good guy, huh?
Keep these on
for a few more days.
Change the bandage each night.
And when you do, you know,
put some ointment on there,
some first-aid cream
I wanna thank you
for the other night,
and all your help.
I really appreciate it.
Well, any doctor
would have done the same.
Maybe.
Campos?
Campos. C-A-M-P-O-S.
All right. This will
help you sleep a little bit.
And put some vitamin E oil
on there, so it won't scar.
Okay.
Listen. You wanna
get a drink somewhere
or something to eat or...
No, I got to get home.
CHRISTIAN: Miss Campos.
AMARYLLIS: So,
I've seen you with Elizabeth
in the bathroom at the club.
What does she do to you?
It doesn't matter.
I wanna know.
Why?
I'm just curious.
She sucks my cock.
She does it well?
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter?
Not really.
Oh. So when you're
watching us strip,
what do you think about?
Do you think about fucking us?
That's what Jack says.
I don't think about fucking...
No, I... Sometimes
I think about my...
What?
Sometimes I think about my wife.
She's gone.
I'm sorry.
Oh, no, no, no. She left.
I took a job in a hospital in
Sydney, Australia, far away,
and she didn't wanna go,
so she left.
You have kids?
No.
Maybe you're
better off without her.
She's my best friend.
So, the club,
you go there for what?
Trying to get even?
Maybe.
And this thing with Elizabeth?
What is it with Elizabeth?
What is that?
Why did you bring me here?
You asked me first.
'Cause I'm not gonna
suck your dick.
You know what? I didn't
come here to get laid.
I just came here to talk.
So, talk.
Okay. All right.
Look, my life is a mess.
All right?
I can't concentrate at work.
So, why do I come to the club?
Okay, I come to the club
to look at sexy women, right?
To see naked, to watch them,
imagine them.
I don't even know.
Maybe it makes me
feel powerful.
It makes me feel
like I have control.
But I'm not coming...
I didn't come here
for sympathy.
But that night when
you first danced for me,
I felt something.
I had this funny feeling.
I never had that before,
not even for my wife.
So what is it?
I wanted to protect you.
Look, I mean, I've had
that kind of a feeling,
you know, for my patients.
You know,
a caretaker or something,
but this is different.
"Oh, pray for me
and I'll pray for you
"Pray for the wicked
and the evil, too"
"Pray for the genius
And the not so smart
"Who with their smiles
"Still touch your heart"
I read all your poems.
You never came
back for me, Pops.
All a book needs is
to be read, you know.
Just needs to be read.
MILES: "At each stride
a mile he measured
"Lurid was the sky above him
"Lurid seemed the earth
beneath him
"Close and hot
the air around him
"Filled with smoke
and fiery vapors
"As of burning woods
and prairies
"And his..."
Hi.
Amaryllis of Puerto Rico.
Yes.
Oh. Oh.
What happened to your arms?
Are you okay?
I had a...
It's okay.
Feels better. Okay.
You know, if I had a daughter,
she would be just like you.
You like to dance?
Hmm?
You like dancing?
Oh, I used to dance
with my wife at weddings
and such functions.
Let's dance. Oh, yes.
Come on.
Okay.
Put this over here.
Come on.
Dancing.
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Okay. Over there.
Dancing. Let's do
some dancing. Okay.
All right. All right.
Over here.
So, salsa.
You guide me.
I'll guide you.
And then I'm gonna turn.
And I have to move
my hips like that.
And then I go like that.
Either I move or...
So, how did your wife die?
She was hit by a car.
A car?
Yeah.
You know, Red was
about 10 when she died.
And of course
they didn't want him
to come live with me.
They wanted, you know...
She wanted him to go
live with her brother.
But I always called him Red,
because
the first time I saw him,
that's what he was, he was red.
You know, my wife's blood.
She gave it to my boy.
Then she gave it to me.
Crossing Broadway,
you know, 9:00 p.m.
in the evening. Fucking car.
I ran to her in
the middle of the street
and held her in my arms.
I couldn't stop the bleeding.
Couldn't stop the bleeding.
And that night I went home
and I wrote a poem.
You know, I put everything
I knew about her in that poem.
The way she smelled after a day
at the ocean, you know.
When she went to sleep,
you know,
her feet used to rub up
against each other
because, you know,
her extremities,
they got cold, you know.
Just a bunch of...
Just a bunch of goddamn words.
You know, I still
have that poem, you know,
but I don't have my...
I don't...
I don't have my wife.
You are a very good dancer.
I want you to come
with me to Australia.
To where?
Australia.
I'm flying tomorrow.
I want you to come with me.
I know we haven't
known each other
for a long time,
but I think you feel
what I feel.
Listen, I've never been
further away from Puerto Rico
than New York.
That's too far away.
But... Look at this.
I'll take you away
from that terrible place
you're staying.
Look at that.
We can have a beautiful life.
It's pretty.
Let me take care of you.
We can have
a beautiful life together.
To Australia and to us.
Oh, my God.
The red light of the sun
Slowly descending
The sky is all I see
It's never ending
We could fly
You and I
On a cloud
Kissing, kissing
What happened
back at the club
with the glass cage?
I didn't wanna be there,
you know.
I wanted to disappear.
I just went crazy.
I didn't come to New York
to be a stripper.
You know, when I was a kid,
six, seven years old,
my dad worked all the time,
never saw him.
He used to come home
after I was asleep.
So, one night,
I sneak downstairs
in the middle of the night,
hide behind a chair
in my dad's office all night.
Next morning,
everybody wakes up frantic,
looking for me.
My dad finds me.
He starts spanking
the shit out of me.
Over, over, over.
I was crying and yelling.
And all of a sudden he stops
and he hugs me so tight.
He saw me. He really saw me,
and he held me just
as tight as he could.
I think sometimes we think
we want to disappear,
but we really just
want to be found.
Look what I got for us.
Two tickets to
the other side of the world,
Sydney, Australia.
We leave tonight.
Tonight?
Tonight.
If we give ourselves
too much time,
we'll talk ourselves out of it.
Can...
Give me one week.
I'll meet you in one week.
No, we have to go together.
And I have to be there
on Monday for my job.
We walk down the aisle
of that plane together.
We get off in a new country,
on a new day, together.
We reinvent ourselves together.
It's gotta be tonight.
Say yes.
We go together.
Okay.
Yeah?
Mmm-hmm.
I'll do it.

MAN: Okay, folks, this is it.
Thank you.
Yeah. Thank you.
Nice.
Hold that.
And drop.
That's it.
Great. Nice. Very nice.
Thank you.
Fantastic. Fantastic.
Okay. I need to bring it down
to three couples, please.
Let me have...
You, please come forward.
Let me see you with
this gentleman here.
And let me have you.
The rest of you,
thank you very much.
Guys, we're gonna take it from
this whole section through.

That's it. Nice.
Pick it up.
Push it.
Take it right through.
Get down. Yes.
Okay.
Very nice, very nice.
Very nice, you guys.
Take a break. Take a break.
Ladies and gentlemen,
obviously we have
three very solid
couples here today.
Unfortunately,
there is only one that is
appropriate for our show.
Mr. Robert Jones.
You're a great dancer.
Thank you.
You're in.
Nice.
Miss Amaryllis Campos.
You're very special.
Congratulations.
You got the job.
Well done.
Oh.
That's your grandson, Pops.
Miles Vario Emory.
Life isn't easy
She's cold and alone
There's no one to help her
She's out on her own
She still goes through
each day so desperately
Sometimes you can't take it
She falls to her knees
'Cause she is a dancer
'Cause she is a dancer
And Yellow is her name
She dreams of a new life
of running away
Miles from the sorrow
and years from the pain
There's only so much
that a woman can take
But nothing will stop her
Now she's on her way
'Cause she is a dancer
'Cause she is a dancer
And Yellow is her name

You know.
It's so hot out there.
Phew!
Amaryllis, we have a problem.
What?
Javier called.
He can't come, he's sick,
so I need you to go
and clean the toilet, okay?
What are you talking about?
I've worked here
longer than anyone.
Get Tito to do it.
Besides, I have deliveries.
They can wait.
I'm asking you to do it.
When their pizzas get cold,
I don't get any tips.
You know that.
I'm not cleaning any toilet.
Amaryllis, since when
do you tell me
how to do my job?
Great, here's the mop.
Hand me the pizza.
Amaryllis, where do you
think you're going?
Now, I'll take the pizza,
you take the mop, okay?
Thank you.
There's the bucket.
(REGGAETON SONG
PLAYING ON STEREO)
God bless you.
God be with you.
What you want?
Scrambled eggs?
Sure, why not? The usual.
Runny, with a lot of bacon?
The same as always.
What numbers?
7-4-8.
Mami, we're out of eggs.
Uh-huh.
I'm going out.
Where to?
I gotta go see this guy
about something.
When are you coming back?
See you later.
Franco, peace out, man.
CARMEN:
Your boyfriend's a joker.
I'm gonna go buy the eggs.
That Dominican just
doesn't have any class.
I don't know, sweetheart.
I don't think he's so bad.
I think he's got a good heart.
Don't start, Franco, please.
Don't start.
(CHATTERING ON TV
IN LIVINGROOM)
Change the bandage.
You wouldn't believe my boss.
Tell me about it.
The old asshole.
He's really got
it out for me, man.
He's only 23.
Really?
Yeah.
Don't worry about it.
Sit down,
watch television with us.
Yeah, your mom's right.
You should
check this shit out.
It's really funny, baby.
Did you hear anything I said?
Uh-huh.
Sure. Something about
a bald-headed shit.
Yes, yes,
Mrs. Juarez's
cousin is bald.
CARMEN: Now let me
watch the show.
ANGELO:
He's a bald motherfucker.
Baby, turn the TV back on.
Why should I?
You're not listening to me.
Amaryllis, relax.
The TV stays on.
Hey, just back off.
Says who?
You're not
the only one making money.
Well, tell me who does.
Why, you think selling
dime bags on the street
helps us out? Please.
What are you talking about?
You can't be throwing
my shit out like that.
It's the truth.
Come on.
I got my own money, my savings.
You'll see. You'll see.
I'm gonna take that money and
buy a great big ranch someday.
I don't owe my family fucking A.
You must be tripping, right?
Mama, has he ever
said anything to you
about a savings account?
Let's make a deal.
Put your shirt on
and try growing up.
Pack of cigarettes.
Four.
I heard about your papi.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Thank you.
(SALSA MUSIC
PLAYING ON STEREO)
Hey. Hey, come on.
Angelo, come.
Come on, let's dance.
Angelo, dance.
Dance. Come on.
Like I taught you.
CARMEN: Wait a minute.
A toast to my
late husband, Franco.
He was a great classical dancer.
ANGELO: To Franco.
But an even better salsa dancer.
A bottle of water, please.
Can I...
Can I ask you a favor?
Can I stay with you tonight?
Please.
Come in.
Have a seat.
Thank you.
Just in case you get cold.
Thank you.
Good night.
Good night.
Go to Marcello's bar.
Over there, baby.
Come on, baby,
come on.
No, no.
Marcello's is closed, baby.
Come over here.
I want to go Marcello's bar.
ANGELO: Marcello's is
all closed down, mamita.
It's all closed down.
Come this way.
I have to get out of here.
I have to dance.
I have a cousin, Jorge Guzman.
He lives in the East Village
in New York.
He doesn't have a telephone,
but he calls me
every once in a while.
I know he could help you out.
You could stay with him.
Here, this is
for the ticket.
No, no, no.
Yes, take it, please.
Come on. No.
Take it. Please. Please.
How much is it?
Not important, forget about it.
I'm not sure how
I'll ever pay you back.
Thank you for everything.
Just be careful.
Oh, baby, you're late.
Come on, let's go.
Come on. Give me the apples.
Don't worry about the apples.
Come on, I'll take that.
We gotta go now. Come on.
Look, all you gotta do
is get him to sign this,
"To Mr. and Mrs. Emory.
"God bless, Langston Hughes."
You're confused.
My name is Amaryllis Campos.
Goddamn student.
How many times
have I told you...
I'm here...
Wait, listen to me.
I'm telling you,
Monday through Thursday,
1:00 to 3:00.
Those are my office hours.
That's it.
You don't come to my house.
It's not a library.
Pound, Eliot, Perse, I lost
all of them to students.
Give me my...
Let me get my stuff.
Adios.
Hasta la vista, my darling
Damn it.
Sir, give me my stuff.
That's my stuff.
Okay.
It's okay. I'm sorry.
Can I help you?
What is the problem?
What is wrong?
I'm looking for Jorge Guzman.
I'm a friend of his cousin
in Puerto Rico.
I'm supposed to stay with him.
Oh.
Okay. Well, I...
I haven't seen Jorge
for a couple of months.
Sometimes he's gone
for a couple of months,
sometimes he's gone
for over a year.
But the best of luck to you,
and God bless you and all.
Take care.
What are you doing?
I'm tired.
I can't let you stay.
This is Jorge's.
This is it.
You think I can stay?
It's no skin off my ass.
I'll get your bag.
for 01nonton.com release
Hi. Can I help you?
I thought you were
looking for dancers.
We are, honey. We are.
No, but I thought
a different kind of dancing.
Yeah, baby,
keep walking like that.
MILES: "Set me free
from this dark prison
And henceforth and forever
"Men shall know
of your achievements
"Calling you Kayoshk,
the seagulls,
"Kayoshk, the Noble Scratchers
"Set me free
from this dark prison
"Henceforth and forever"
Hello.
Hi.
Longfellow.
Song of Hiawatha.
Do you know it?
Nope.
Ah.
I don't think I got
your name the other day.
Amaryllis.
Oh!
The shepherdess.
It's close to yellow.
Well, the amaryllis
flower is actually
red.
You know, that's my boy's name.
His name is Red.
His given name is
actually Augustus,
but we called him Red.
So, maybe we should meet.
Well, actually,
I haven't seen him
for quite some time.
Do you like garbanzo beans?
Yeah.
A-ha!
Can I sit at the table?
Please excuse me.
Excuse my manners.
I'm very sorry.
Please have a seat.
Thank you.
Please.
Are you comfortable?
Yeah. Yeah.
Very good.
Actually, I'm not a bad cook.
This is my family's
recipe for soup.
You should really mind
your own goddamn business,
you know.
I'm sorry.
You come into
someone else's house
and you take
something that doesn't
belong to you.
I'm sorry.
You know,
it's like almost 10:00 now,
and I think I have
to read some poetry,
a new book from
Langston Hughes.
So, maybe you should leave.
I wanna hear one of the poems.
Can you read one?
Okay.
The name of this poem
is A Dream Deferred
by the great,
great Langston Hughes.
Okay?
"What happens to
a dream deferred?
"Does it dry up like
a raisin in the sun?
"Or fester like a sore
"And then run?
"Does it stink like rotten meat?
"Or does it
crust and sugar over
like a syrupy sweet?
"Maybe it just sags
like a heavy load
"Or does it explode?"
JOELI: Amaryllis,
this is Jack.
You ever dance before?
Yeah.
Yeah?
You ever strip?
Umm...
Well, that's okay.
Everybody's
gotta start sometime.
So,
what kind of dancing you do?
Modern. Well,
classical and ballet,
and jazz, modern dance.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
That's great. That's great.
You know, because
I used to be a choreographer.
Like big time, you know.
I like to give my girls
a personalized routine.
A onstage identity
that really reflects
and expresses who they are.
For me,
it's all about the girls.
It's a professional gig,
understand?
I mean, lots of my girls,
they dance here
just for the money,
while they were waiting
for legit dance jobs.
I'm cool with that.
I am very cool.
You see that girl over there?
She just finished
an Off-Broadway show.
On Broadway?
That's right.
That's the kind of
people I'm looking for.
Look, it's a seller's market
if you're beautiful,
and I have to be
perfectly frank with you.
You're like a drop-dead
knockout, Amaryllis.
So, what's it gonna be?
I'll start you out
at a 100 a day?
Yeah, plus, you keep your tips.
JACK: Okay, Amaryllis.
You're on the floor.
Strut your stuff, kid.
Listen, Amaryllis, I love
everything you're doing.
Everything.
It's athletic, it's sexy,
it's sensual, it's beautiful.
But take your clothes off.
Okay, take the shirt off, honey.
Five, six, seven,
and plie, releve.
Plie, releve.
Amaryllis, plie, releve.
Amaryllis, pay attention.
Plie, releve.
JACK: Lose the skirt, darling.
Amaryllis, arabesque.
Arabesque. Arabesque.
I need to see your tits, Yellow.
By the way,
that's your name from now on,
Yellow.
Eyes open, baby.
Come on. Come on.
It's just like
losing your virginity.
First strip is always the worst.
Oh, my God, over here.
It's okay. Come on.
Here. Here we go.
Why don't you use this one
till Jack and Joeli comes up
with a theme for you, okay?
Okay.
Pretend you're not here.
Pretend you're someplace else.
Someplace fun and alive,
with the man you love.
You're dancing
for the man you love.
He loves your body.
He loves the way you move.
And not just because
he wants to fuck you.
When I'm dancing,
I call that man Charlie.
And when I'm done, I always say,
"How did you like that,
Charlie?"
And he always says,
"Sensational."
JACK: Hello, hello, hello!
And welcome,
ladies, gentlemen...
ALL: Let's go, let's go!
And children of
all ages, you know?
Tonight,
I'm gonna introduce to you
a new dancer at the Club La Dor.
A real Puerto Rican beauty.
Put your hands together.
Give it up for Yellow!
What's her name?
Nina.
Nina.
She's a cutie.
So, anyway, Tony left me,
and I didn't have any money.
You know,
never finished high school.
I don't have any skills.
Honey,
every girl got some skills.
You know what I'm saying?
You see Christian tonight?
Sure did.
Who's that?
He's one of the new regulars.
Yeah, he was the cute guy.
Oh, my God.
You remember?
Across the table,
short hair, black shirt.
He makes a lot of money.
And he pays well
to know the dancers better.
How do you know that?
You should ask her.
JOELI: Represent. Represent.
What?
No, it never crossed my mind
You might try to hide from me
You would set
the place on fire
With your long and broken
wrecking shriek
Always aiming for the truth
Sometimes missing
just one word
Something really shaken loose
Look around to see
the cities burn
It's just the way
I'm feelin'
Miles? I didn't know
you worked here.
What the hell
are you doing here?
Buying groceries.
It's none of your
damn business why I'm here.
This is my volunteer thing.
I'm giving back
to the community.
I bet they appreciate that.
Yeah, well,
a lot of teachers, you know,
they come here, they volunteer,
give back to the community.
That's what I'm doing. Okay?
So you are a teacher?
Yes, at NYU. Well, usually,
but I'm on sabbatical now.
I'm a professor of poetry.
Do you write poems?
Many, many volumes. Yes.
So, which one is
your favorite one?
Can I hear it?
The only reason
that I'm going to
read this poem to you
is because you really are
a persistent pain in the ass
and I like you very much.
Okay, cool.
Okay.
The name of this poem
is Yellow, Color of Forgiveness.
Color of Forgiveness.
Thank you.
Okay.
Pray for me and
I'll pray for you
Pray for the wicked
and the evil, too
Pray for the genius
and the not so smart
Who with their smiles
still touch our hearts
Pray for those who would destroy
All the baby girls
and all the baby boys
With their evil toys
Pray for the robber,
pray for the thief
Pray for the loss of our belief
Pray for those
who can no longer pray
Pray for the loss of another day
My mother and my father
have gone from here
Others I've loved
from yesteryear
As I grow old and
move toward sleep
Releasing pains
I've held so deep
Deeper than the soul's regret
Memories I've yet to forget
O hope, my love,
don't leave me yet
Your lips speak
softly of the light
As I move humbly into night
ELIZABETH: Mama Joeli.
Hey, what's up, Liz?
Look, I'm having
a little trouble
with my costume here.
That's chic, baby. Chic.
It fucking falls the moment
I walk on the stage, Joeli.
They wanna see your titties.
What's the big deal?
You give them everything at once
and the game's over.
Trust me.
Well, c'est la vie.
Hey, Bette Davis...
JOELI: I'm going for a smoke.
This guy.
I used to dance ballet
since I was a little girl.
My father was my teacher.
He danced for Henri Clementine.
Shit.
All right.
Talking about dancing,
I got to tell you something.
I know this producer.
He's doing a reggaeton video.
No offense, but you
should audition for him.
Music is music, you know.
And besides,
let me tell you something.
You're a great,
great dancer, all right?
And besides, I know for sure
you're gonna get the part.
So when you're in,
you can tell them
about my costumes
and probably
I can do the wardrobe.
Ted, put on some reggaeton.
I gonna show you
how to move, all right?
Yeah! Oh, baby!
He doesn't
live here anymore, okay?
He's not here.
I'm sorry.
I'm not here to see Jorge.
You're not here to see Jorge?
No, I'm here to see Miles Emory.
Who are you?
I'm his son.
Red?
You're Red?
No one's called me Red
since I was a kid.
Oh, well,
he talks to me about you.
So, he lives here?
Yeah. Yeah, right here.
Well, I knocked on
that door, no one came.
Because he's probably
at the store.
Which store?
The grocery store.
That's where he works.
Listen, could you please
tell him that I came by?
Yeah.
I'm staying at
the Pioneer Hotel in Midtown.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
CHOREOGRAPHER:
Okay, so basically, I need
three men and three women.
You guys know the drill.
Let's get to it.
Come on, now.
Right. We're gonna start off
with the right arm,
and it goes one, two, and three.
Okay. One, two.
One, two,
and three, four, and five,
six, seven, and eight.
Back to one.
Okay. Cut the music.
Okay. Now, let me just see
these three guys over here.
Keeps bumping into me.
Who?
The choreographer.
The choreographer
was doing good.
I think it was the other guy
that choreographer was...
It was him!
I'm sorry.
You know what, honey,
you can go now. Thank you.
Guys, take it from here.
JOELI: I'll talk to you
later, okay?
What's going on? Wait.
Miles.
Miles.
Oh, Jehovah's Witness.
Oh, Jehovah's Witness,
Jehovah's Witness.
Red came to see you.
Oh, he wants some money.
He wants some...
I don't have
any goddamn money.
Okay, no, listen...
Goddamn money.
Goddamn freeloader.
Get out!
Goddamn freeloader.
He wants something.
He always wants something,
you know.
And he'll think I'm a sucker.
That's what it is.
He'll think that
here comes Miles,
he's the sucker.
No, I don't think
you're a sucker.
You're not a sucker.
Okay
Oh, yeah.
Oh, you're that new girl
that my boy's been
talking about. Maria.
Red was here.
Stop. I'm Amaryllis.
And we had soup
right here. Look.
You know, somewhere
in the process of history,
human biology
trumped mathematics...
Okay. Okay.
I know for a fact
that the devil
comes with many names.
And it was really good.
Yeah. Yeah.
"In those days,
the evil spirits
The Manitos of mischief
"All fearful, all fearful,
Hiawatha's wisdom"
Stop! We were right there.
Bye-bye.
Here you go.
What the hell is that?
That's your costume, honey.
My costume?
Mmm-hmm.
Joeli wants you to wear
body paint for your act.
Is he crazy?
Mmm-hmm.

AND WHISTLING)

...
Shh! Be still. Be still.
Easy.
Are you the guy from the club?
What happened?
You cut yourself up pretty bad.
I'll check back on you.
The dressings are changed
around 2:00 p.m.
So, all I need you to do
is to check the IV, all right?
Is it bad?
No, it's okay.
There was a doctor here earlier.
What's his name?
Oh, I believe it's Dr. Kyle.
Yeah, that's right,
Dr. Christian Kyle.
Would you rather have
a female doctor?
No, no, no, it's okay.
Don't worry about it.
He's very competent.
AMARYLLIS: Ow.
ELIZABETH: I'm sorry.
I'm trying to be gentle.
Hi, girls.
Hi.
How you doing?
I'm good. I'm all right.
You're gonna cover all this
with makeup, right?
Yeah. Yeah. We were
just getting to that.
It's okay.
Yeah.
Yeah. Listen, that's okay.
Why don't you
take the night off?
Yeah, you go home, you relax.
Forget about dancing.
Oh, no, no, please.
I wanna dance.
You're still beautiful.
You're still my Yellow.
You just need to take
some time off, you dig?
What?
For you.
It's the least I could do.
Thanks.
Hey, who ever said
I wasn't a good guy, huh?
Keep these on
for a few more days.
Change the bandage each night.
And when you do, you know,
put some ointment on there,
some first-aid cream
I wanna thank you
for the other night,
and all your help.
I really appreciate it.
Well, any doctor
would have done the same.
Maybe.
Campos?
Campos. C-A-M-P-O-S.
All right. This will
help you sleep a little bit.
And put some vitamin E oil
on there, so it won't scar.
Okay.
Listen. You wanna
get a drink somewhere
or something to eat or...
No, I got to get home.
CHRISTIAN: Miss Campos.
AMARYLLIS: So,
I've seen you with Elizabeth
in the bathroom at the club.
What does she do to you?
It doesn't matter.
I wanna know.
Why?
I'm just curious.
She sucks my cock.
She does it well?
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter?
Not really.
Oh. So when you're
watching us strip,
what do you think about?
Do you think about fucking us?
That's what Jack says.
I don't think about fucking...
No, I... Sometimes
I think about my...
What?
Sometimes I think about my wife.
She's gone.
I'm sorry.
Oh, no, no, no. She left.
I took a job in a hospital in
Sydney, Australia, far away,
and she didn't wanna go,
so she left.
You have kids?
No.
Maybe you're
better off without her.
She's my best friend.
So, the club,
you go there for what?
Trying to get even?
Maybe.
And this thing with Elizabeth?
What is it with Elizabeth?
What is that?
Why did you bring me here?
You asked me first.
'Cause I'm not gonna
suck your dick.
You know what? I didn't
come here to get laid.
I just came here to talk.
So, talk.
Okay. All right.
Look, my life is a mess.
All right?
I can't concentrate at work.
So, why do I come to the club?
Okay, I come to the club
to look at sexy women, right?
To see naked, to watch them,
imagine them.
I don't even know.
Maybe it makes me
feel powerful.
It makes me feel
like I have control.
But I'm not coming...
I didn't come here
for sympathy.
But that night when
you first danced for me,
I felt something.
I had this funny feeling.
I never had that before,
not even for my wife.
So what is it?
I wanted to protect you.
Look, I mean, I've had
that kind of a feeling,
you know, for my patients.
You know,
a caretaker or something,
but this is different.
"Oh, pray for me
and I'll pray for you
"Pray for the wicked
and the evil, too"
"Pray for the genius
And the not so smart
"Who with their smiles
"Still touch your heart"
I read all your poems.
You never came
back for me, Pops.
All a book needs is
to be read, you know.
Just needs to be read.
MILES: "At each stride
a mile he measured
"Lurid was the sky above him
"Lurid seemed the earth
beneath him
"Close and hot
the air around him
"Filled with smoke
and fiery vapors
"As of burning woods
and prairies
"And his..."
Hi.
Amaryllis of Puerto Rico.
Yes.
Oh. Oh.
What happened to your arms?
Are you okay?
I had a...
It's okay.
Feels better. Okay.
You know, if I had a daughter,
she would be just like you.
You like to dance?
Hmm?
You like dancing?
Oh, I used to dance
with my wife at weddings
and such functions.
Let's dance. Oh, yes.
Come on.
Okay.
Put this over here.
Come on.
Dancing.
Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Okay. Over there.
Dancing. Let's do
some dancing. Okay.
All right. All right.
Over here.
So, salsa.
You guide me.
I'll guide you.
And then I'm gonna turn.
And I have to move
my hips like that.
And then I go like that.
Either I move or...
So, how did your wife die?
She was hit by a car.
A car?
Yeah.
You know, Red was
about 10 when she died.
And of course
they didn't want him
to come live with me.
They wanted, you know...
She wanted him to go
live with her brother.
But I always called him Red,
because
the first time I saw him,
that's what he was, he was red.
You know, my wife's blood.
She gave it to my boy.
Then she gave it to me.
Crossing Broadway,
you know, 9:00 p.m.
in the evening. Fucking car.
I ran to her in
the middle of the street
and held her in my arms.
I couldn't stop the bleeding.
Couldn't stop the bleeding.
And that night I went home
and I wrote a poem.
You know, I put everything
I knew about her in that poem.
The way she smelled after a day
at the ocean, you know.
When she went to sleep,
you know,
her feet used to rub up
against each other
because, you know,
her extremities,
they got cold, you know.
Just a bunch of...
Just a bunch of goddamn words.
You know, I still
have that poem, you know,
but I don't have my...
I don't...
I don't have my wife.
You are a very good dancer.
I want you to come
with me to Australia.
To where?
Australia.
I'm flying tomorrow.
I want you to come with me.
I know we haven't
known each other
for a long time,
but I think you feel
what I feel.
Listen, I've never been
further away from Puerto Rico
than New York.
That's too far away.
But... Look at this.
I'll take you away
from that terrible place
you're staying.
Look at that.
We can have a beautiful life.
It's pretty.
Let me take care of you.
We can have
a beautiful life together.
To Australia and to us.
Oh, my God.
The red light of the sun
Slowly descending
The sky is all I see
It's never ending
We could fly
You and I
On a cloud
Kissing, kissing
What happened
back at the club
with the glass cage?
I didn't wanna be there,
you know.
I wanted to disappear.
I just went crazy.
I didn't come to New York
to be a stripper.
You know, when I was a kid,
six, seven years old,
my dad worked all the time,
never saw him.
He used to come home
after I was asleep.
So, one night,
I sneak downstairs
in the middle of the night,
hide behind a chair
in my dad's office all night.
Next morning,
everybody wakes up frantic,
looking for me.
My dad finds me.
He starts spanking
the shit out of me.
Over, over, over.
I was crying and yelling.
And all of a sudden he stops
and he hugs me so tight.
He saw me. He really saw me,
and he held me just
as tight as he could.
I think sometimes we think
we want to disappear,
but we really just
want to be found.
Look what I got for us.
Two tickets to
the other side of the world,
Sydney, Australia.
We leave tonight.
Tonight?
Tonight.
If we give ourselves
too much time,
we'll talk ourselves out of it.
Can...
Give me one week.
I'll meet you in one week.
No, we have to go together.
And I have to be there
on Monday for my job.
We walk down the aisle
of that plane together.
We get off in a new country,
on a new day, together.
We reinvent ourselves together.
It's gotta be tonight.
Say yes.
We go together.
Okay.
Yeah?
Mmm-hmm.
I'll do it.

You're very special.
Congratulations.
You got the job.
Well done.
Oh.
That's your grandson, Pops.
Miles Vario Emory.
Life isn't easy
She's cold and alone
There's no one to help her
She's out on her own
She still goes through
each day so desperately
Sometimes you can't take it
She falls to her knees
'Cause she is a dancer
'Cause she is a dancer
And Yellow is her name
She dreams of a new life
of running away
Miles from the sorrow
and years from the pain
There's only so much
that a woman can take
But nothing will stop her
Now she's on her way
'Cause she is a dancer
'Cause she is a dancer
And Yellow is her name
Sexy!
