Description
Vanity Fair's Anthony Breznican is not only a great writer, he's a major Stephen King nerd. His feature on The Life of Chuck gave us our first insight into Mike Flanagan's adaption, which just triumphantly premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival. Now Breznican is on the show to talk about some King deep cuts, examine The Life of Chuck as a short story and as a film, and how its powerfully uncynical message is direly needed right now.
