Rosemead Review â Lucy Liu will break your heart OVERVIEW Rosemead is a 97-minute family thriller-drama, the feature debut of cinematographer-turned-filmmaker Eric Lin, based on a real-life story. Lucy Liu plays Irene, a Chinese immigrant and widower who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer, while her teenage son Joe (Lawrence Shou), living with mental illness, drifts deeper into unsettling obsessions. As her health deteriorates, Irene is forced into impossible choices, trying to protect him before it is too late. It is a tragic, often tense story about a mother running out of time, doing everything she can out of love for her son. https://reviewsonreels.ca/2026/01/06/rosemead-review-lucy-liu/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
