My Beautiful Son (2001)

In the heart of the bustling New York City, Jerry Lipman (Paul Reiser), a prosperous psychiatrist, has his world turned upside down when he is diagnosed with leukemia at the pinnacle of his career. As his life teeters on the brink, a startling revelation from his mother shatters his known reality - he was adopted from a young Catholic girl, Sheila (Dame Julie Walters), residing in the humble quarters of Liverpool, England. Thrust into a desperate race against time, Jerry embarks on a journey across the Atlantic, seeking his birth mother and the slim hope of a life-saving bone marrow transplant. As he navigates through the working-class streets of Liverpool, he finds himself on a path of self-discovery, unearthing not just his roots, but also hidden layers of his own identity. "My Beautiful Son" is a gripping tale of survival and self-discovery, unraveling the bonds of blood and love amidst life's harshest trials. In his quest for survival, Jerry Lipman finds more than just the hope of a cure; he finds a deeper understanding of his true self and the unbreakable ties that define him.
