Losing Chase

Losing Chase (1996) is a quiet, close-up HBO drama you can watch online on iFILM — Kevin Bacon's directing debut, with Helen Mirren and Kyra Sedgwick in the central roles. Chase has just come home after a nervous breakdown, raw and unwilling to let anyone near.

Her husband Richard (Beau Bridges) hires a young woman named Elizabeth to run the household and take the pressure off. The arrangement is meant to be practical. It becomes something else — a slow, charged closeness that surprises both of them. Mirren gives Chase a stillness that's more unsettling than any big scene: a woman in a life that no longer fits her, trying to figure out whether it ever did. Stream Losing Chase online on iFILM.
