Chris Chambers
Age: 12 - 13
Chris is the ring leader of the group, he is pinned down by ace in the beginning of the movie and threatened where he backs down but by the end of the movie he stands up to Ace, showing that he has progressed as a character and he is now brave.
He comes off as a tough kid due to his background and family history but he has a really softinterior, for example in the scene where Gordie and Chris are together in the woods and Chris talks about how the teacher framed him and nobody gave him a chance because of his family’s bad name. His family is full of drunks and he has a bad name around the town, he has ambitions for himself and wants to be better than his parents, he did end up going to law school and becoming a successful lawyer who died in his 40’s.
He is a caring friend, it is displayed throughout the movie when he wants Gordie to succeed and reassures him that he’s going to be a famous writer one day.
Even despite his rough background he was a nice kid who always tried to do the right thing, like break up an argument between two guys, which led to his inevitable death.
