In contrast to the Russells' upper middle class lifestyle, Buck lives in a small apartment in Wrigleyville, drinks, smokes cigars, earns his living by betting on rigged horse races, and drives a dilapidated 1977 Mercury. Buck also finds himself at odds with his girlfriend of eight years, Chanice. She wants to get married and start a family, but Buck is reluctant to do so as he loves his lifestyle. To quell her dissatisfaction, Buck has grudgingly accepted a new job at her tire shop.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>At 12:02 AM, the family receives a phone call from Cindy's aunt in Indianapolis informing them that her father has had a heart attack. They make plans to leave immediately to be with him. After hearing the news, Tia, bitter about being forced to move, accuses Cindy of abandoning her father. Bob suggests asking Buck to come and watch the children, to which Cindy objects as she considers Buck a bad influence and a failure.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cindy suggests asking their neighbors the Nevilles for help instead while also shooting down the idea of their neighbor Marcie watching them, but Bob finds they are holidaying in Florida. Buck cheerfully accepts the job when Bob calls him. When he informs Chanice that he cannot start his job yet due to the family emergency, Chanice assumes Buck is trying as usual to lie his way out of working.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Upon arriving, Buck deals with Cindy's cold demeanor towards him and finds himself cropped out of Bob and Cindy's wedding picture. Nevertheless, he quickly befriends Miles and Maizy, but Tia is brash and hostile as they engage in a battle of wills. When Buck meets Tia's cocky obnoxious boyfriend Bug, he warns her that Bug is only interested in her for sex and repeatedly thwarts her plans to sneak away on dates with him.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Over the next several days, he deals with several situations in comedic fashion, including taking the kids to his favourite bowling alley, making enormous pancakes for Miles' birthday, removing the drunk Pooter the Clown from the property, berating assistant principal Anita Hoargarth about Maizy's behavior in class, and handling the laundry when the washing machine does not work.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Eventually, Tia exacts revenge on Buck for meddling in her relationship by tricking Chanice into thinking that Buck is cheating on her with Marcie. The next day, Chanice comes over to confront Buck about what she heard, but is furious to find Buck dancing with Marcie in the living room. Chanice leaves him.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The following weekend, concerned after Tia sneaks out to a party, Buck decides to go looking for her rather than attend a horse race which would have provided him with enough money for the entire following year. He calls and begs Chanice to watch Miles and Maizy as he searches for Tia. At the party, thinking that Bug is taking advantage of her in a bedroom, he forces the door open by drilling out the lock, but walks in on Bug forcing himself on another girl. After he finds Tia wandering the streets, she tearfully apologizes to him and acknowledges he was right about Bug. Buck then reveals Bug, bound and gagged with duct tape, in the trunk of his car. After intimidating him, Buck lets Bug out of the trunk to apologize to her. When Bug is finally released, he threatens to sue Buck and retracts his apology, but flees in fear after Buck strikes him with a golf ball.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>At home, Tia helps Buck reconcile with Chanice by admitting her lie and tells Chanice that Buck would be a good husband and father. Buck also agrees to start his job at the garage, and he and Chanice reunite.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cindy's father recovers and she and Bob return home from Indianapolis. Upon entering the house, Tia surprises her mother with a hug. The entire Russell family says farewell to Buck and Chanice as they leave for Chicago, with Buck and Tia exchanging a loving wave goodbye.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cast<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>John Candy as Buck Russell, a bachelor who babysits his brother's kids.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jean Louisa Kelly as Tia Russell, the oldest daughter of Bob and Cindy.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Laurie Metcalf as Marcie Dahlgren-Frost, the neighbor of the Russells who lives across the street.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jay Underwood as Bug, Tia's boyfriend.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Amy Madigan as Chanice Kobolowski, the girlfriend of Buck and proprietor of a tire shop.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Macaulay Culkin as Miles Russell, the only son of Bob and Cindy.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Gaby Hoffmann as Maizy Russell, the youngest daughter of Bob and Cindy.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Elaine Bromka as Cindy Russell, the wife of Bob.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Garrett M.

All of them return to Derry, except for Stanley, who kills himself out of fear of the creature. At a Chinese restaurant, Mike refreshes the Losers' memories before Pennywise itself reveals the news of Stanley's suicide to them. Richie and Eddie decide to leave until Beverly reveals that she has had psychic visions of their deaths should they fail to fulfil their oath. Meanwhile, It kills a young girl named Victoria at a baseball game after luring her into a trap.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Mike shows Bill, via a drug-induced vision, that the Native American "Ritual of Chüd" can stop It for good. Mike explains that the ritual requires items from their past to be sacrificed. Bill goes to the storm drain where Georgie was killed and recovers his paper sailboat. Beverly retrieves Ben’s love letter from her childhood home before being attacked by It in the form of a demonic elderly woman named Mrs. Kersh. Richie goes to an abandoned arcade where he finds a game token and encounters Pennywise, who confronts him on his hidden homosexuality. Ben returns to the town’s high school, while Eddie recovers an inhaler from a pharmacy and is attacked by the Leper. Meanwhile, Henry Bowers, who was arrested for killing his father, is freed from a mental hospital by It. Bowers viciously attacks Eddie at the Losers’ hotel, before attacking Mike at the library; Henry nearly kills Mike, but Richie kills him before he has the chance. The Losers then rejoin Bill—who just failed to save a young boy named Dean from being eaten by It—at the Neibolt House, and talk him out of facing It alone.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>With their memories now fully restored, the group descends into a cavern beneath the sewers, with Mike providing a rock from the Losers' fight with the Bowers Gang as they perform the ritual in the remains of the meteor that brought It to Earth. The ritual traps the Deadlights, It's true form, in a sealing jar, but a giant red balloon emerges from the jar, and explodes, revealing It as a giant Pennywise-spider hybrid. The creature pressures Mike into revealing that It killed the Natives originally performing the ritual because their fears overtook them, a fact Mike had hidden from the Losers. It attacks the Losers and places Bill, Ben, and Beverly in individual traps, which they escape once Bill releases his guilt over being indirectly responsible for Georgie’s death, and when Beverly realizes Ben was the one who wrote the love letter to her. Mike stands up to the creature, only to almost get eaten, but Richie manages to distract It, getting caught in It's Deadlights in the process. Eddie saves him, but is fatally impaled. After Eddie explains how he made It feel small earlier, the Losers confront Pennywise on how they’ve overcome their fears, and are no longer scared of the entity, causing It to shrink. Mike rips out It's heart, which he and the Losers crush with their bare hands, finally killing It. Richie and the others rush to see Eddie but find out he has died from his injuries. The Losers are forced to leave Eddie's body, while It's cavern implodes, destroying the Neibolt House.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The remaining Losers return to their old swimming area and wash off from their confrontation with It, and join hands to comfort Richie as he mourns for Eddie. It's demise has also caused the scars on their hands to disappear. After the Losers part ways, Ben and Beverly get married, Richie returns to the kissing bridge where he had once carved his and Eddie's initials, Mike decides to move out of Derry and start a new life, and Bill begins writing his new story before receiving a call from Mike as he leaves Derry, learning that Stanley sent them all posthumous letters. The letters reveal that Stanley was too scared to face It, and that his suicide was intended to strengthen his friends against It. He asks the remaining Losers to "live life to the fullest potential," as a red balloon floats in the sky in the background.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Cast<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jessica Chastain as Beverly "Bev" Marsh: The only female member of the Losers Club, who was abused physically and sexually by her father and bullied at school over false rumors of promiscuity. Beverly has become a successful fashion designer in New York City while enduring an abusive marriage to Tom Rogan but later divorces him and marries Ben.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Sophia Lillis as Young Beverly Marsh<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>James McAvoy as William "Bill" Denbrough: The resourcefully determined former leader of the Losers Club who hunted down and defeated It in the summer of 1989. (Bill was primarily motivated by vengeance, because It killed and ate his younger brother, Georgie.) He swore that he and the other Losers would return to Derry if It resurfaced. As an adult, Bill is a successful mystery novelist in Los Angeles whose works are often criticized for having the same lame endings.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jaeden Martell as Young Bill Denbrough<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Bill Hader as Richard "Richie" Tozier: Bill's bespectacled best friend and fellow member of the Losers Club, whose loud mouth and foul language often get him into trouble, who also has secret romantic feelings for Eddie. As an adult, Richie becomes a successful stand-up comic in Chicago.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Finn Wolfhard as Young Richie Tozier<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Isaiah Mustafa as Michael "Mike" Hanlon: A member of the Losers Club who fought against It. As an adult, Mike is the only one to stay in Derry and becomes the town librarian. The only one who remembers everything that happened in the previous film, he summons the other Losers back to Derry when It resurfaces.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Chosen Jacobs as Young Mike Hanlon<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Tristian Levi Cox and Torian Matthew Cox as 4-year-old Mike Hanlon<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jay Ryan as Benjamin "Ben" Hanscom: A member of the Losers Club who fought against It, was bullied as a child for being overweight and had a crush on Beverly. As an adult, he is an attractive and successful but lonely architect living in upstate New York and running his own company called Hanscom Architecture.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jeremy Ray Taylor as Young Ben Hanscom<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>James Ransone as Edward "Eddie" Kaspbrak: A member of the Losers Club, a hypochondriac and victim of Munchausen syndrome by proxy. As an adult, Eddie is a successful risk analyst for an insurance firm in New York City and is married to Myra, who is very similar to his over-protective mother Sonia.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jack Dylan Grazer as Young Eddie Kaspbrak<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Andy Bean as Stanley "Stan" Uris: A pragmatic member of the Losers Club who aided in the battle against It in 1989. As an adult, he becomes a founding partner of a large accounting firm in Atlanta and is married to a woman named Patty Blum.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Wyatt Oleff as Young Stanley Uris<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise the Dancing Clown: An ancient predatory creature from another dimension brought to Earth millions of years ago by a meteorite. It awakens every 27 years to feed on the fear of children that it kills. Pennywise is It's favorite and primary guise, although It is shown to take many in order to instill fear into It's victims. It was overpowered and seriously wounded by the Losers Club in 1989, forcing It into premature hibernation. This defeat motivates it to rebuild its strength and kill the Losers once they return to Derry.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Other guises of It include Joan Gregson as Mrs. Kersh, an apparently sweet and gentle elderly woman, actually a monster, who lives in Beverly's childhood home; Javier Botet as Hobo, a leper who encountered Eddie at the 29 Neibolt Street house, and also as The Witch, the monstrous form of Mrs. Kersh; Jackson Robert Scott as Georgie Denbrough, Bill's late younger brother; and Owen Teague as Patrick Hockstetter, a young hoodlum who was eaten by Pennywise in the sewers in 1989. It also briefly appears without clown makeup, under the alias Bob Gray (also Skarsgård).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Steve Cook<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>If you would like to join the Computer Science & Technology Division for the NFB of SC list serve, please send a message to <a href="mailto:SC-cstd-subscribe@nfbnet.org"><span style='color:blue'>SC-cstd-subscribe@nfbnet.org</span></a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>National Association of Guide Dog Users Board Member<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>President of the Computer Science & Technology Division of the National Federation of the Blind of SC<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>1<sup>st</sup> Vice President of the Columbia chapter of the National Federation of the Blind of SC<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>1<sup>st</sup> Vice President of the SC Association of Guide Dog Users Division<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
