The Life Of Annalise: A Conversation About Mike Flanagan, Stephen King, And A Career Reawakening With The Life Of Chuck’s Annalise Basso


[Greetings, loyal King Beat readers! In the wake of the TIFF world premiere of Mike Flanagan’s The Life Of Chuck, this week’s column is taking a different form than normal, but I hope you nonetheless enjoy.]

When people acknowledge that writer/director Mike Flanagan’s The Life Of Chuck is an atypical Stephen King movie, that’s a nod to the fact that it’s not a horror film, it’s primarily a comment pointed at its second act. After all, the first finds a collection of characters experiencing the end of the world, and the third introduces the supernatural to the story. Act II, titled “Buskers Forever,” is different. The titular Chuck, Tom Hiddleston’s Charles Krantz, is an accountant who finds himself swept up in the beat of a busking drummer (Taylor Gordon a.k.a. The Pocket Queen) and revives his long dormant dancing skills with Janice Halliday, a young stranger played by Annalise Basso.
