Chu and Blossom

Son, no doubt. The mom is played by the great Mercedes Ruehl. Haven't seen her in anything for a while. Last thing I remember was Entourage. She had a recurring role on there as Vinnie & Johnny Drama's mom. She was one of my faves back in the 80's & 90's. She was a big deal. She won an Oscar for the classic Robin Williams/Jeff Bridges flick, The Fisher King. She also won a Tony for the play, Lost In Yonkers and recreated the role for a film adaptation. This Chu & Blossom character talks like she's had a stroke or something. I don't think Mercedes is really impaired in real life.

Mercedes Ruehl was in tonight's Law& Order:SVU. She played the DA, Raphael Barba's mom. The character is of Cuban extraction. As it turns out, so is Mercedes (on her mom's side), which makes it doubly cool that's she's playing Chris's mom in this movie. Her dad's family immigrated to New York from Germany. Neat. Also, she is fine. No recent stroke like the Chu character apparently has had.
