The sunny Mondanity in southern California in the San Gabriel Valley of Southern California is the great place for the first Erik Lyn, the dark way out, the annoying and completely successful story of the widow struggling with its son's mental illness. Based on near, a series of realistic events that occurred in 2015 and was documented two years later by journalist Frank Chiong in Los Angeles Times (Be careful: the title alone is the huge spoiler), Rosemed It works better as a personal study than it is as a film on mental health. Although it takes some time to get used to seeing Lucy Liu as a meek and humble mother, the film depends on unexpected drainage, giving the actress the best role in the years, so that she can get traction in the award season.
There is an immediate, clear comparison with the character of Michelle Yuh in Everything everywhere onceA strong Asian star casts the gender in a local environment. But with Irene Chao, what you see is exactly what you will get; The director of the Taiwanese director of the Florent copy store is struggling to keep her life together after her husband's death. Her son Joe (Lawrence Show), 17, who was one day a straight student, began the return of his grades, and when we meet him, in a school exam, he is examined so that he does not cost himself the trouble of cheating, and black black scribbling on the test sheet instead.
There is a specific comment here on the pressures that Asian students feel, but the real problem is schizophrenia, which Irene finds it difficult to accept. The doctor at the medical center is trying to involve it in its treatment, and for a period of time it refuses (“just because you have a Chinese face that does not mean that you understand us,” and it settles in the stumbling of the English language). Perhaps the largest point that Lynn is trying is the issue of pride in the Asian diaspora, which is reflected in Irene's attempts to clean the problems of air under the carpet and tell her friends that his visits to contraction are, in fact, because of his interest in psychiatry. The atmosphere will be a handful of enough, but Irene's cancer has returned, and the experimental treatment you get is a long snapshot at best.
The risks are increasing through radio reports on shooting in North Carolina, and Irene's first instinct is to change the channels (“We do not need to think about these things,” Joe told, as she turns into some jazz Pob music). But it raises something in an atmosphere, and Irene sees it, as we do when he turns in school during active activity exercises. Joe, we learn, he did not take his tap (“Their pills are vigilant. No more!” He writes in his magazine on the Internet). His friend Jenny (Madison Hu) finds a disturbing map with a hand -drawn for school, while Irene notes the victory of violent criminals in the history of the research, from Sandy Hook to Ura. Fmese, there is no concrete feeling of the plan. yet…
The biggest defect with LIN is in his attempts to find a visual language for the JOE mental rings, which tends to be craftsmanship at the extreme and fragmentation of the fixed pace of the drama. The best part of Rosemed It is what is not driven and not owned. When Joe is 18 years old, Irene will not be a guardian of him, and the bloody horrors that might do what he might do when you are no longer there to prevent him as a major part of the story. Again, Irene defends shame and just feels guilty (“Did you do something wrong?” She wonders loudly).
Lynn, who works with scriptwriter Marilyn Fu, works with great sensitivity, as Liu provides the head of the head she needs to provide a quiet power performance, and sell us to despair that always drives Irene to the limits of her practical mind. By the end of the movie, Irene is embodied, she just wants to disappear and forget, and withdraw this while continuing to provide a very dramatic return, not a feat. Liu is igniting now, and if you have a rich and stimulating part of this to present it, well, the time of f*cking is now …
