Currently showing in cinemas, the movie tells a compelling story about Aishe, a Uyghur immigrant portrayed by newcomer Sebiye Behtiyar, who endures a hardscrabble life working long hours in Chinatown kitchens. She cautiously develops a relationship with Skinner, an Army veteran dealing with PTSD and housing instability, played by Fred Hechinger. This relationship doesn’t provide respite from the oppressive systems affecting them individually, but rather highlights their struggles. Aishe’s marginalized position in America creates barriers to her happiness and connections, while Skinner’s lack of access to necessary PTSD care puts a strain on their bond. Director Liu elicits touching, poignant performances from the leads, and Martyna Majok’s screenplay steers clear of the overly sentimental or patronizing tropes often found in Hollywood depictions of immigration narratives.

In contrast to the Charlie from previous decades, the one featured prominently in Andrew Renzi’s two-part Netflix documentary titled “aka Charlie Sheen” is not the same.

The extensive three-hour documentary includes input from co-star Jon Cryer, two ex-wives, a brother, two children, and Sean Penn. Despite Sheen’s public struggles being well-known for a long time, aka Charlie Sheen offers a comprehensive look and serves as an entertaining counterpart to his recently released memoir, “The Book of Sheen“. In both, Sheen reflects on the lingering impacts of his years of drug abuse and his efforts to make up for missed opportunities. Here are eight key insights from the documentary.
