Hey.
Hey.
What's up, dog?
I done told you about that "dog" sh*t.
Don't let me have to take care of you
out here in front of these brothers.
Now turn that mess down.
It's too loud, Junior.
Let me ask you...
...you don't like to be
called "dog," right?
Well, you know, "Dad"...
..."Daddy"...
..."sir" would be nice.
Take your pick.
Then I should have the right
not to be called "Junior."
That's cool. That's cool.
What do you like? Evan?
Hell, no!
Then what?
"Smooth."
My homies call me Smooth.
Your homies call you Smooth.
I ain't your homie, okay?
You must be out your damn mind.
Ain't no way
I'm calling my son Smooth.
All of a sudden, I'm your son again?
But I'm the one out his damn mind?
You're a Bruins fan, huh?
Yeah, 1995 NCAA champs.
Can't argue with that.
You down with the Bruins?
I went to SC.
Flip Carter. What's happening?
X.
X? Like in, what,
"X marks the spot"?
No, just X.
in my life:
Ezekial, Cadillac......even a brother named Porcupine.
But even if she's in labour
with a bottle in one hand...
...a big fat blunt in the other...
...no mother would name her son
a letter of the alphabet.
You're saying your mama
named you Flip?
Phillip. Flip's my stage name.
I'm what you call a thespian.
Okay.
- My real name's Xavier.
- Xavier.
- Xavier Moore.
- That I can get with.
- What up, black?
- What's happening?
I'm doing well. I made the bus.
It's all good now.
Please, I get up with the roosters.
I had an early audition.
- You a singer or something?
- I'm an actor.
You ever been in any movies?
- See Boyz N the Hood?
- You were in that?
Almost. At the last minute
they gave it to...
To Ice Cube.
You believe that?
He's a rapper, not a actor.
I can't get behind that.
It's okay, though, because
I just went up for a role opposite...
...Denzel.
That's on the q.t.
Okay.
What is this, CNN?
No, no. Excuse me. Film school.
I'm doing a documentary
for my thesis project.
Hey.
Gary.
Gary what?
Gary Rivers.
How come you're going
to the march?
What?
The march. How come you're going?
I guess if the brothers are getting
together, talking about things...
...working things out,
I want to be there. Right?
Right.
Where are you from?
I live in Pasadena.
No, where are you from?
Monterey, originally.
- Monterey?
- Right.
I didn't know black people
lived there.
We got a handful.
If you don't mind my asking...
...are you mulatto,
or just light-skinned?
You mean biracial.
Biracial?
So that's a yes.
