Damsels in Distress: Charlie and Xavier

Charlie (Adam Brody) is the suave young businessman who attracts the attentions of two of the women in the group. “Charlie is a man of strong ideals and opinions,” says Brody. “He’s extremely nostalgic for a bygone era of art and manners and civility in expression, of being chivalrous.
