Mimino Page #2

Here's an invitation

to the banquet for you.

Hello, I want Larisa Ivanovna,

please.

With a spouse...

I'll tell you one thing, don't get offended.

People like in this hotel,

I've never seen before.

I'm just a driver. I get here,

they ask "what's your surname"?

I tell them:
Hachikian.

They say:
Hello, comrade Hachikian.

Very glad to meet you.

They took my stuff and brought it here.

You can stay here, they said.

Can you imagine?

- Can I make a phone call?

- Of course, go ahead.

And didn't ask for a kopek in return.

I want Larisa Ivanovna, please.

Hello, Larisa Ivanovna!

Listen, how I thought

I was alone...

This is Valiko,

the one who is Mimino.

Remember, you walked past in Tbilisi,

while I was loading up Dutch chickens?

What are you doing this evening?

Want to have dinner together?

Pilot...

Good. I'll be waiting for you at 7pm

in the foyer of the Hotel Rossia.

Let her bring a friend.

See you there.

Listen, will you

let me talk or not?

Listen, why are you shouting at me?

I live here.

- You think I don't live here?

- Why are you angry at me?

- Yeah, I'm angry!

- I'm three times more angry at you!

- So what?

- So what yourself?

Here he is, that mug.

Dear friends! This song is dedicated to

our guest from the sunny town of Telavi.

And this song is dedicated to

our guest from sunny Dilizhan.

In the red shirt - this is

Professor Hachikian.

What do you mean, no?

Why did Uzbekistan get it yesterday?

My dear, you understand,

we've got mountains.

You been in the zoo?

You saw the camel there?

Got offended.

What do you think, if I paint it green,

would it stay on?

You see, Albertik asked for a green one,

but they only had orange in the shop.

Can you get a green one in Tbilisi?

Nor in Yerevan.

- Why aren't you drinking the kefir?

Don't like it? - I do.

You know what? I will tell you one

clever thing, just don't get offended.

I have a daughter, Alla.

If someone calls and says: Alla,

let's go to a restaurant and a dance,

I'll think very badly of him.

But if he says:
Uncle Ruben, may I take

Alla out for a cultural event,

I'll say:
Go on, dear friend.

It's that your Larisa Ivanovna didn't come,

it means she's from a moral family, I think.

Larisa Ivanovna, would you like to

go to a theatre with me?

Which one then?

How about the Bolshoi?

I'll be waiting near

the second column at 6:45.

She'll be there.

He's not in today, come back tomorrow.

Leave your forms here.

What do you think, will they take me?

All the papers are in order.

Givi, tell Vano there's

no horseshoes in Moscow.

Everything's fine.

I'm going to the Bolshoi

theatre tonight.

I handed in the forms,

I'll get an answer tomorrow.

Of course they'll take me.

You know what they said?

Pilots like you don't grow on trees.

Tell Andro to take the firewood vouchers

to my folks. Say hello to everyone for me.

- Where is comrade Hachikian?

- At the depot.

- Is he thinking about something or not?

- I don't know.

He needs to hand the papers

in for translation.

Here. His badge.

- Got it.

- Got what? - 26-B.

Such hydraulics, it's awesome.

That's what I think.

- Comrades, which of you is Hachikian?

- Him.

Come in.

People like you are a disgrace

to the republic. I'm Hachikian.

Here he is.

A good hunter has a lucky hit.

Listen, who are you

calling a hit? Me?

Comrade Hachikian,

where's your paper?

You're the only one

who hasn't submitted any.

Listen, Lady, have I ever said

I was an endocrinologist?

What's going on?

I don't understand.

What don't you understand?

He's Hachikian, and he's Hachikian,

and they call this one an impostor.

Shame on you, throwing a person

out into the street?

What's the difference, an endocrinologist

or not? I'm not one either.

- What's your name?

- Mizandari.

Here's another two places for you.

- He hasn't called.

- He will.

- What?

- Tomorrow I'm going home.

In three days I'm home,

will go to a sauna,

get in hot water,

then sit at the table,

mama is making dolmah...

- Do you like dolmah?

- No

- Because you don't know how to make

dolmah in Georgia. - May I have 2 kopeks.

Hello? Yes. Who is it?

Mimino that was loading chickens?

You know, Mimino,

let lost and never get found

What? She is still at home?

She's crazy, it's cold. I'm frozen.

What did he say?

- So where is your lorry?

- There, around the corner.

- Listen, was that her mother?

- Which one? - The one that was singing

- Everyone was singing

- The one that died

- Everybody died.

- No, in the red dress, the fat one.

- It was the conductor

- You didn't get it

Which one does look like

your Larisa Ivanovna?

This one?

I will tell you one clever thing,

just don't get offended.

- You and her don't make a pair of boots.

- Why?

You are a handsome

man but she is...

Take a cat, put it into the water,

same result, just as skinny.

Tastes differ. Armenians like fat women,

Georgians like skinny ones

You know how you walk around Moscow?

The cap. You walk: one, two, three...

Hop...

What hop?

- The lorry got stolen

- What?

Are you sure this is the right courtyard?

Here is the rubbish bin,

a woman was smoking there

Stay here. Don't let anybody in or out.

Mind the clues.

I'll get the police

Tell them the 26-B got stolen, brand new

Friend, don't go here.

Here are the clues.

What's the matter? I live here

Friend, I ask you as a brother,

don't come near

- Rubik-dzhan

- What?

- What's wrong with him?

- Went away. Where is the police?

Rubik-dzhan, don't get offended,

I'll tell you one clever thing:

Your lorry is standing

in the next courtyard,

I think so.

- Good morning

- What, evicted again?

No. In this hotel, I'm the boss.

What is 'chita-grita'?

Birdie, little birdie... Nothing

Rubik, may be you will go tomorrow?

We can go somewhere else tonight.

No, I can't. Missing home.

- Friend, the Civil Aviation this way?

- Yes

Why do you need beg aviation?

Let's go to my place.

- Mama's making dolmah...

Do you like dolmah? - No

That's because you don't know how

to cook dolmah in Georgia. A real dolmah...

Don't tell me we don't know

how to make satcivi either.

In our Dilizhan even the tap water

- second place in the world.

- And the first one in Yerevan?

- No, in San-Francisco.

What about Borzhomi?

Think first, then talk.

- Finish. No heavy vehicles allowed.

- Good bye.

- Here, sell it.

- What for?

- You don't have any money, me neither.

- Thanks, I'll borrow from Valera.

Until you borrow...

I won't take it.

How I'll sell it, to whom?

Let's go

This one has completely warn out tires.

Excuse me Miss, whos car is this?

From flat 57.

- What?

- Do you want new tires half price?

Nugzar! It's for you.

- Don't Rubik, let's go.

- He'll take it, I think so.

- What do you want?

- Tires, half price.

Just a minute.

You should say hello, young man.

Just a minute.

Tosja, call the police.

He'll kill me.

Come in.

- Are you my solicitor?

- I was assigned
