The Life Of Chuck
14th January
The Life of Chuck, based on the novella by award-winning writer Stephen King (The Shining, It, The Green Mile), is directed by Mike Flanagan, known for his acclaimed King adaptations Doctor Sleep and Gerald’s Game.
Widely hailed as one of the best Stephen King films ever made, it premiered to glowing reviews and won the People’s Choice Award at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Told in reverse, the story traces the life of Charles “Chuck” Krantz from his mysterious final days back to his childhood, exploring how every ordinary moment forms part of a vast inner universe. With striking performances and Flanagan’s signature emotional depth, it shifts away from King’s typical horror towards something more profound, a meditation on life, death, and the quiet miracle of existence.
Critics have praised its structure, tenderness, and thought-provoking beauty, calling it “a soft-edged, big-hearted reflection on what it means to be alive.”
1916. As war rages on the Western Front, the Choral Society in Ramsden, Yorkshire has lost most of its men to the army. The Choral’s ambitious committee, determined to press ahead, decides to recruit local young males to swell their ranks. They must also engage a new chorus master, and despite their suspicions that he has something to hide, their best bet seems to be Dr. Henry Guthrie (Ralph Fiennes) – driven, uncompromising, and recently returned from a career in Germany. As conscription papers start to arrive, the whole community discovers that the best response to the chaos that is laying waste to their lives is to make music together.
Directed by BAFTA, Olivier and Tony Award winner NICHOLAS HYTNER (The Crucible) and written by BAFTA, Olivier and Tony Award winner ALAN BENNETT, The Choral marks their fourth writer-director collaboration following the acclaimed films The Madness of King George, The History Boys, and The Lady in The Van.
