Kaimt Cultural Cinema – ‘The Life of Chuck’

Who is Chuck? The world is ending, California is sinking into the sea, the Internet is collapsing – yet in a small American town, there is primarily gratitude towards Charles “Chuck” Krantz, an ordinary accountant whose face smiles down kindly from billboards and television screens. Who is this man that no one seems to truly know? A mystery that reaches far back to his childhood with his grandmother, who passed on her endless love for dancing, and his grandfather, who initiated him into the secrets of accounting and wanted to keep him away from the locked attic room. A mystery that raises one essential question: Can the fate of one individual influence the entire world?

With THE LIFE OF CHUCK, mystery specialist Mike Flanagan presents the extraordinary and deeply moving adaptation of Stephen King's short story of the same name – a gripping, life-affirming drama that won the coveted Audience Award at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival.
