It Was You Charlie

About This Movie

It Was You Charlie is this introspective mix of comedy and drama that captures the essence of loss and the struggle for redemption. Abner Roth, played with a quiet intensity, feels like a ghost of his former self—a sculptor turned doorman, haunted by the echoes of his past. The film’s tone is both melancholic and darkly humorous, with a pacing that allows those quieter moments to linger, giving you space to really ponder his grief. The practical effects are minimal, but the emotional weight of the performances more than compensates. It’s distinctive for how it intertwines moments of absurdity with genuine heartbreak, making you reflect on the fragility of life and the connections we cherish.
