You are officially done-no more novels, short stories, or film rights to be sold. You are finished. The cast and crew of this film just paid you the biggest compliment by showing the world you can tell an informative, sensitive, and uplifting story without your usual tricks to scare or intimidate the audience.

"The Life of Chuck" runs backwards (on purpose) and opens with the world dying with a whimper rather than a bang. So well done! Then we meet Chuck in his final days and finally transition to the younger Chuck and the magic he learns about life.

This can't be missed as it should be King's last film (lest he release a reputation-killing stinker). Go celebrate Chuck's life and King's magic.

Nice to read (and we look forward to seeing it) but King's work will be plundered..., posted on June 15, 2025 at 11:22:29

more thoroughly and longer than, say, Ian Fleming's.

Or Shakespeare's for that matter.

We see words and stories, some much better than others.

Too many only see $$$$$$$.
