North Bay Film Presents: THE LIFE OF CHUCK directed by Mike FlanaganWednesday September 17th at Galaxy Cinemas | 300 Lakeshore Drive North Bay
The weather is getting cooler which means it’s time again for the North Bay Film Series! We’re so back! Join us for an exciting new season of exclusive screenings now at Galaxy Cinemas.
We’re thrilled to present 2024 TIFF Audience Choice Award winner THE LIFE OF CHUCK as our first film of the 2025-2026 season.
With The Life of Chuck Mike Flanagan takes a detour from the macabre to explore one of Stephen King’s alternate sensibilities in an adaptation that carries the spirit of his most optimistic work. The world feels like it’s ending and everybody’s saying goodbye to Chuck. Wherever Marty (Chiwetel Ejiofor) goes he can’t get away from Charles Krantz (Tom Hiddleston). His face is showing up on billboards window signs — even TV commercials. What’s so special about this seemingly ordinary accountant and why does he warrant such a sendoff?
Their connection includes Marty’s ex-wife (Karen Gillan) her co-worker his neighbour and just about everyone else they know. Chuck’s life story soon begins to unravel in front of us going back to a childhood with grandfather Albie (Mark Hamill) who teaches him about accounting and passes on a love for dancing all the while keeping him from a prophetic secret in the attic.
The Life of Chuck starts grand and ends intimate like a setting sun. It’s a Stand By Me for the multiple lives within each of us pulled between our dreams and down-to-earth pragmatism. Fans of Flanagan’s skillful storytelling in The Haunting of Hill House Midnight Mass and Doctor Sleep will easily see why he gravitated towards the unorthodox structure of this King novella. Coupled with his impressive knack for elevating simple conversations and interactions into memorable set pieces Flanagan manages a rare feat: finding warmth in melancholy.
