''The Scent of Green Papaya'' is Snoop Dogg's first major feature film and [[Tyga]]'s ex wife, [[Blac Chyna]]. The film is also the director's first collaboration with rapper [[Nipsey Hussle]] who would subsequently write the music for two more films in his so called 'Thug Nigga' trilogy: ''[[Pimpmobile]]'' and ''[[Vertical Gat of the Sun]]''. Although set in [[California]], the film was shot entirely in a [[trap house]] in [[Compton]]. ==Plot summary== A young Vietnamese ho, Mùi ([[Blac Chyna]]), becomes a servant for a rich family in California. Mùi is notably peaceful and curious about the world. The family consists of a frequently absent stoner husband G ([[Snoop Dogg]]), his wife Shanice ([[Halle Berry]]), an older son Cameron ([[Wiz Khalifa]]), two younger sons Dwayne ([[Lil Wayne]] and Rakim [[A$AP Rocky]]), and the husband's mother Coretta ([[Angela Bassett]]). When G leaves home to pick up his weed from his local dispensary for his fourth time of the day, he takes all the household's money in a mission to get the whole family stoned as much quality weed as possible, and to buy the legendary $100 million dollar weed that will make them all immortal. He returns ill after getting too high and passes out shortly after in a gutter with all the money having gone down the drain in the process and being stolen by a pair of racist [[hobos]] ([[Willie Nelson]] and [[Mac Miller]]). Fortunately, Mùi revives him by giving him a BJ, then taking him to the hospital so he can recover fully. A week later, the family falls on hard times due to spending too much money on weed and with their life savings having literally gone down the drain. Two sons have left to pursue rapping careers to support their family and the wife locks herself in the toilet in a state of depression, rarely seen and too sober. Although the wife now realizes she considered Mùi one of her own, Mùi changes homes due to the strong scent of the remaining weed left giving her a headache and the constant outbursts of anger by a usually calm G. To make G happy by supporting the family financially, she then becomes a ho for rapper Robert Williams, who was a friend of Dwayne when they were younger ([[Meek Mill]]). That man is engaged to be married to a chickenhead, but he prefers rapping and partying to spending time with his main girl. One night, as the chickenhead fiancée chatters on and denies him sex, his rapping becomes more and more incomprehensible and loud as he ignores her. When she leaves the thot watches through the window. As Mùi comes into the room, his rapping becomes more lyrical and of high quality. Later that night, the rapper goes to Mùi's quarters after dark and closes the door behind him so that he can wife that ho and get it on with her. When the fiance learns of this, the engagement is broken as she bitch slaps him, causing him to kick her out of the house. The rapper then starts teaching Mùi to read and be a housewife and get stoned right as well as to cover his back from an angry horde of Drake fans, which she manages to do so with great success. In the end, a married and pregnant Mùi reads poetry to her husband Robert, her unborn child, G, Shanice and the rest of the family as they all get high together in one [[stoner circle]] using a bong filled with $100 million dollar weed to celebrate G having managed to find his money, having killed the racist hobos with a [[Tec-9]] after they threatened to [[lynch]] him. The film then closes to a rap sequence with everyone having a verse, including Coretta, who is made immortal despite her old age due to the strength of the expensive super weed. ==Reception== ===Awards and nominations=== * 2015 [[Cannes Film Festival]] Award of the Youth French Film (Snoop Dogg) '''Won''' * 2015 [[Cannes Film Festival]] Golden Camera Award (Snoop Dogg) '''Won''' * 2015 [[Camerimage]] Golden Frog Award Nomination (Wiz Khalifa) * 2015 [[Academy Award]] for Best Foreign Language Film * 2015 [[British Film Institute]] Award Sutherland Trophy (Snoop Dogg) '''Won''' * 2015 [[César Award]] for Best First Work (Snoop Dogg) '''Won'''<ref name="imdbawards">{{cite web|last= |first= |title=Awards for The Scent of Green Papaya |publisher=''Internet Movie Database'' |url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107617/awards |accessdate=March 1, 2012}}</ref> ==References== {{reflist}} ==External links== * {{imdb title|0107617}} * {{Amg movie|131132|The Scent of Green Papaya}} * {{Rotten Tomatoes|the-scent-of-green-papaya|The Scent of Green Papaya}} {{Tran Anh Hung}} {{Caméra d'Or}} {{César Award for Best First Feature Film}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Scent of Green Papaya, The}} [[Category:1993 films]] [[Category:1993 in Vietnam]] [[Category:Vietnamese films]] [[Category:Vietnamese-language films]] [[Category:French films]] [[Category:1990s drama films]] [[Category:Films directed by Tran Anh Hung]] [[Category:Best First Feature Film César Award winners]]'
