years later.
They were very close. Very close.
Why don't I just call Arthur right now
because I'm sure he would be happy...
- Hold on, please, put the phone back.
- Happy to have his...
Welcome to Lanvin. How can I help you today?
Mr. Eshel is speaking in a series of meetings
with businessmen and diplomats.
He is interested in trying out those shoes
in the window.
Sure, may I ask
what line of business you're in?
Well, I don't want to ruin my first
impression, but I'm a politician.
NORMAN:
Well, not any politician.the Minister of Trade and Labor in Israel,
and Deputy to the Prime Minister.
No, no, no.
I'm the Deputy Minister of Trade and Labor.
My boss, the Minister,
is Deputy to the Prime Minister.
But there are three other deputies,
just to put things in context.
It's an honor to meet you, sir.
I'm sorry, but you look too young
to be so important.
Well, thank you for the very flattering lie.
He has a future in politics.
Which is more than I can say for myself.
I might be young, but I'm already washed-up.
- You don't look washed-up.
- Yeah.
That's because I'm in New York now.
New York makes me feel good.
Back home, I look tired.
NORMAN:
No. No, you don't.I've seen your appearances on TV.
You look great.
(CHUCKLES) Yeah, well, that's because
I'm very photogenic.
No, no. It's because
you are one of the few Israeli politicians
who radiates optimism.
Optimism... Yeah.
Well, the shoes I buy today will last longer
than the government I serve in.
Change is good. That's what they tell me.
The fashion world relies on change.
And the Middle East relies on...
How do you say stagnatzia?
- Stagnation.
- Stagnation, yeah.
Once you're in power,
you don't want anything to change.
You can ask my boss about this.
SALESMAN:
The young Ministershouldn't feel washed-up.
Excuse me for saying, please.
I can help with this.
Let me try something.
So, you said your wife works for Arthur Taub?
NORMAN:
She used to, yes. She passed away.Oh, I'm sorry.
It was years ago.
But she was very close to Arthur.
if you were to join me tonight.
He is someone you should meet.
Yeah, I know. I've been hearing his name
from a few different people recently.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
What's he like?
There are two kinds of moguls.
First kind is like a big ocean liner ship.
Makes a lot of waves, a lot of noise,
everybody sees it coming from miles away.
Like Jo Wilf.
I think your boss,
Minister Maor, is actually...
- In his close circle of friends, of course.
- Yeah. Mmm.
And then, there is Arthur.
Well, Arthur is more
like a nuclear submarine.
He's quiet. He's fast. He's young.
