the man in the cloak

| No Comments

March 20 movie: The Man in the Cloak. Joseph Cotten plays Edgar Allen Poe, which is supposed to be a big surprise ending except it's really, really obvious. First of all because he reads some of his own poetry early on, and secondly because most of the movie takes place in a home with a pet raven. Not Poe's home, but still. Poe is an international man of mystery in this film, solving a murder and protecting young French waif Leslie Caron. Barbara Stanwyck plays the villain. She's pretty good at that.
