With mugs in hand filled with a hot toddy to imbibe, we unpack Mike Flanagan’s Stephen King adaptation and why its reverse-act structure invites multitudes of interpretations.
Along with our special guest Erik Childress, we start with Act Three and the film’s eerie, end-of-everything energy, then wrestle with the core question: are we seeing the universe collapse alongside Chuck, or are we watching the mechanics of a mind shutting down, connection by connection?
Remember to imbibe responsibly! If you haven't seen "The Life of Chuck," watch the film before you listen to the episode.
