The Pale Blue Eye is a murder mystery film that follows a young Edgar Allan
Poe during his early military career. Together with a retired detective, they
investigate the mysterious and sinister death of a student at the United States
Military Academy.
The film features impeccable performances, ornately
decadent costuming and styling, a carefully choreographed color palette, and
painting-perfect cinematography, making it one of the best fictionalized
interpretations of Edgar Allan Poe. |
