A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III
Comedy86 min
Charles Swan III is a successful Los Angeles graphic designer whose money, charm, and carefully arranged life come undone after Ivana abruptly leaves him. Charlie Sheen's Charles spirals into heartbreak and self-examination, drifting through fantasies, resentments, and memories as he tries to imagine life without her. Around him is a small circle of loyal allies, including Jason Schwartzman’s Kirby, Bill Murray’s Saul, and his sister Izzy (Patricia Arquette). Told in a stylized, playful register, the film follows a breakup through Charles’s own warped perspective, where wounded pride, old habits, and friendship all crowd the frame.
