Listen "EPISODE 16: THE LIFE OF CHUCK"
Episode Synopsis
This week on Crouch Cinema Corner, we get introspective with The Life of Chuck (2025), Mike Flanagan’s quietly ambitious, emotionally-layered adaptation of a Stephen King short story from If It Bleeds. Reverse storytelling? Check. Existential dread? Absolutely. Tap dancing in the middle of an apocalypse? Why not!We dive into the film’s unique structure, and how that bold format either totally works or leaves you craving just one more beat. Along the way, we celebrate standout performances, plus a beautiful ambient score by The Newton Brothers that made us feel things (especially during that morgue walk-and-talk). We explore how Chuck fits into the King-Flanagan cinematic universe and why this one might not have found its audience yet.This episode is a heartfelt and hopeful reflection on life, death, and dancing through the weirdness in between. Come for the stars going out, stay for the deep thoughts.✨
