Movie details and overview
An endearing outlier, Brian lives alone in a Welsh valley, inventing oddball contraptions that seldom work. After finding a discarded mannequin head, Brian gets an idea. Three days, a washing machine, and sundry spare parts later, he’s invented Charles, an artificially intelligent robot who learns English from a dictionary and proves a charming, cheeky companion. Before long, however, Charles also develops autonomy. Intrigued by the wider world — or whatever lies beyond the cottage where Brian has hidden him away — Charles craves adventure.

Release Context
U.S. & International Release Details
Limited screenings and digital launches are distinct release types. Available US release dates are used for comparisons; additional research fills missing stages. International dates provide context, not proof of a detected copy's origin. Blu-ray and 4K UHD require edition-specific evidence.
