Tell Tale Heart Animation
Uploaded by: jmcusack
Video Description:
The Tell-Tale Heart is a wonderful animated short film of 1953 based on Edgar Allan Poe short-story. The story told by a mad man has a dark visual with a perfect work of narration by James Mason. It is a UPA Production and was the first cartoon to be X-rated (adults only) in Great Britain under the British Board of Film Censors classification system. Really great - you have to see it.

| this is a great piece. there is also a new movie out based on Poe's life, rather than his work. It will reveal the remaining mysteries about his fascinating life. You can watch the trailer by searching "Poe- Last Days Of The Raven Trailer" on youtube, or watch it from my favorites. The movie will stream for free online on Jan 19th, 2009 - as a tribute to Poe's 200th birthday. A must see for any Poe fan!! |

| True! nervous, ver, very, dreadfully nervous I had been and and am; but why will you say that I am mad? The disease has sharpened my senses, not destroyed, not dulled them. Above all was the sense of hearing acute. I heard all of the things in the heaven and the earth, I heard many things in hell, how then am I mad? Hearken! And observe how healthily, how calmy I can tell you the whole story. |
| I dont blame them ... ( 1 day ago by JPLOWMAN2) |
| I dont blame them for an X-rating. The animation style alone is very graphic, very creepy. And the idea that the story's being told by a lunatic doesn't help either. Besides, critics had different standards back then. |
