Today(technically it is 1:37 in the morning where i am) there is a movie premiering about the life of Edgar Allan Poe, called Poe, The Last Days of the Raven. The process of this movie has been 24 years. it has has been open to the public since midnight, whatever time-zone you are. It is online and free. There has never been another movie dedicated to his life and work before. it is on sale on sale for $20 at the website.

the official Poe movie website is, [link] ,
when you get to the site you can go directly to viewing the movie.


I have actually seen the movie (therefore why i am awake and writing a journal at 1:45 in the morning, which happens anyways). The movie has poe narrating through his life and most of the movie. It goes between his death, poe in-modern day times, and his life-flashback things, and performances of his work. I thought that it was a good piece of work, it even used some scenes from when it was a play, in the early years (out of 24), in the film. i found the writing to be so good, sometimes i wasn't sure if it was Poe's or faux-Poe. its pretty interesting and free and you don't have to download it. Its one of those movies that no one knows about that gets nominated at the Oscars and everyone says "where the Freud do i find these movies?", so you can attribute your knowledge to me! i am actually considering buying it. its 1:20:11 including end credits. i hope you like it, it made me cry
