It is not until all his fellow bears are sold that the poor creature discovers what is obvious to every one else.

Images are from Girls on Film London and Indiewire.Of the thousands of plush teddy bears shipped from the factory to retail stores, only one had the misfortune of having his smile sewn on upside down. “Tangerine” is incredibly funny, it taps into emotion realities most films wouldn’t dare touch, and it’s a stunning feat of independent filmmaking. It’s the world around them that feels confused and limits them through its own habits of self-denial. Despite the way the world might look at them, they know what they want and they head straight for it. Sin-Dee (Rodriguez) and Alexandra (Taylor) already know who they are. Instead, this is explored through almost every other character. One of the most beautiful parts of “Tangerine” is that it presents very real stories about who we are versus how we repress and present ourselves because of the expectations the world has for us – but it doesn’t do this through its transgender protagonists as you might expect. “Tangerine” also speaks to the way that daily life erodes us no matter what we do. It’s heartfelt, it presents the most complex and emotionally accessible friendship I saw in any film from 2015, and Taylor in particular delivers one of the best performances in the last few years. “Tangerine” doesn’t feel repainted to be more palatable for a mainstream audience. “Tangerine” simply takes place in this world, one that’s rarely opened to audiences in a way that feels real instead of patronizing. It doesn’t rely on these factors as many films feel they must in this territory. Yet the story that plays out isn’t gimmicky.
Both Kitana Kiki Rodriguez and Mya Taylor had also worked as sex workers before. Unlike most films about transgender characters, “Tangerine” cast transgender actors in its roles. “Tangerine” walks an almost impossibly fine line between that comedy and something much more touching – a story about people who are struggling, surviving, sacrificing something day after day in order to capture even just a moment of their dreams. The comedy comes from character, and it arises from the endearing natures of the people whose lives we’re watching. Recommended Lists: Recommended Lists: Black Actors.

Orlando was cast in the movie ‘Perfect Game’ and also voiced the role of Bear Little Boy in ‘The Tangerine Bear’. In 1996, he made appearances in episodes of ‘In the House’ and ‘The Parent Hood’. Their experiences can be comedic in the same way stories about any difficult job can be, and though the territory becomes tremendously sexual at points, there’s no judgment on the part of the film. The same year he was cast in the role of Tiger in the movie ‘Major Payne’. It doesn’t make comedy of people who are sex workers. Thankfully, it doesn’t make comedy of people who are transgender. It’s beautifully written and everything about it communicates a care and feeling not just for how the whole film comes together, but for how these characters are presented and learned and loved via the storytelling. The comedy about transgender sex workers in Hollywood was shot for $100,000 entirely on iPhones. “Tangerine” is not only the best comedy of the year, it’s also one of the most groundbreaking independent films you will ever see.
