With Tom Hiddleston, Chiwetel Ejiofor
Runtime: 111 mins
Based on a novella by Stephen King. Tom Hiddleston plays the eponymous everyman Chuck. Three stages of his life are explored, in reverse order. In the first, Chiwetel Ejiofor plays a weary middle-school teacher trying to keep it together as the world crumbles around him. In act two, we see Chuck as an accountant in his late 30s. He’s facing tough times, but he makes a spontaneous, joyful dance connection with a heart-broken woman to a street busker’s vigorous drumbeat. Finally, in act three, we go back to Chuck’s childhood growing up in a possibly haunted house with his grandparents.
