The Life of Chuck, USA 2024, 111 minutes, Recommended for ages 12 and up
A film adaptation of a short story by Stephen King, in which an accountant’s life unfolds into a poetic meditation on memory, loss, and the joy of living. The blend of everyday realism, fantastical elements, and touching dance scenes creates a tragicomedy that is both melancholic and hopeful, celebrating the seemingly ordinary.
