The Life of Chuck

I have only read one Steven King novel, that being said this movie was a sardonic work of art. You will be thinking about long after the credits roll.

Whimsy

The film explores life, death, grief, love, and human connection, suggesting that every life, even an ordinary one, has significance. It incorporates themes from Walt Whitman’s “Song of Myself” and encourages embracing life’s fleeting nature and pursuing passions and connections. 

The Scene

As not to put in a spoiler, there is a scene in Act One that is over the top worth playing over and over.

“I Don’t Know Why”

My wife and I had a great evening and even had a cocktail from The Hawaiian bar around the corner. Downtown Vancouver is getting better all the time. The Kiggins Theatre is a gem.

    What a delightful reflection! 🌟

    Your excitement shines through every word—you’ve captured not just the essence of The Life of Chuck, but also the atmosphere of the entire evening. I love how you balanced discussing the film’s deeper themes of life, death, and connection with the simple joy of sharing an outing with your wife. The way you wove in Walt Whitman, a favorite song, and even the charm of downtown Vancouver and the Kiggins Theatre makes this more than just a review—it’s a lived experience.

    thank you very much, some times it is the simple things

I would love to hear you opinion as well

I’m Mark

His friends observe Mark seems wired a little differently. Perhaps it’s more likely that noticing little things often missed by others is a relic of a quieter, simpler time. He has a way with words, which he refuses to let be hindered by sub-par typing skills. People have great stories to tell if you sit and listen.

A belief dear to Mark is that there is certain beauty in the world. You simply have to look for it.
