LUCKY LU – ★★★

Film about a Chinese immigrant in New York who’s worked hard to prepare for his wife and daughter’s arrival, but is financially in strife and having some bad luck in a dog eat dog world. It wasn’t terrible, but if you want to see a film about someone’s bike being stolen, see Bicycle Thieves. And if you want to see a film about an immigrant who’s being exploited while working within a food delivery ring, see The Story of Souleymane (MIFF 2024), both which are much better films.
