Just watched a great independent movie called #Rosemead (2025).

The movie is based on a true story.

#LucyLiu plays an immigrant Asian woman who has cancer with only months to live. Her husband died of cancer a few years earlier & she is the sole caretaker for her son who is schizophrenic.

Her son is off his meds, is hearing voices, is acting out in response to those voices, commits an act of self harm & is preoccupied with news about mass killings.

The mother feels that she has to deal with these problems alone. She's worried that her son will not get proper care & treatment & that he might commit an act of mass violence against others after she dies.

So, in an act of desperation, she decides to take action to prevent either from happening. Can't say more without spoiling it.

This is one of the BEST movies that I've seen recently.

I rate it an rare 8 out of 10. It's in limited distribution. Lucy gives an amazing performance. See it as soon as you can, where ever you can.
