- Edgar Allan Poe: Buried Alive draws on the rich palette of Poe's evocative imagery and sharply drawn plots to tell the real story of the notorious author. Featuring Tony Award-winning actor Denis O'Hare, the film explores the misrepresentations of Poe as an alcoholic madman. It reveals the way in which Poe tapped into what it means to be a human in our modern and sometimes frightening world.

I've always found it odd that there's never been a biopic movie about Poe. Surely one of the most intriguing and enigmatic figures in American literature is a worthy subject to explore on film.
God, I wish someone would do this. Make it as compelling as that Chaplin movie with Robert Downey Jr. I’d love a two hour movie on his life!
Edgar Allan Poe is one of the most complex figures in American literature, and his life has been extensively documented in various biographies. Given the depth and intricacy of his character, attempting to capture his essence in a biopic movie presents significant challenges and risks, potentially leading to unsatisfactory or even catastrophic results.
@@salvatoremacri3343 You make a good argument and I have to agree with you. I hadn't fully considered the challenges of producing a Poe biopic that would do him justice. Thanks for your thoughtful reply.
Edgar Allan Poe is one of my top 5 favourite writers of all time.
Who are the others?
Well I must say that was such a bloody good program. Some one gave up on it because of the adverts. What adverts. They were so brief and you missed out on such an interesting program.. I didn’t know anything about Poe. I always thought he was English. Very talented and yet lived a lot of his life in poverty. A great writer and he was only 40 when he died. Very good.RIP Poe. ❤
i don't pay for any streaming service except youtube. It fills my 3 hrs entertainment needs by day ( ok…4), and no pub
Magnificent recreation of Poe's art, mind, feelings, figure, struggles and times, excelent personification of characters, great readings and vision of his inner demons, a full tribute to the poet who died at 40 and keeps on amazing the world 😮
Thanks PBS America 🙌
Edgar Poe. I will respectfully stop using the “Allan”. Well, well, slimy old Griswold goes down in history as a smear campaigning narcissist, whilst Edgar Poe is known around the world today as one of the greatest writers and poets in history. ❤
As an avid admirer of Edgar Poe, since childhood (let's leave Mr. Alan aside), I'm astonished how good, actually, this documentary is. I'm well four years past writers age at the time of he's demise. What I anticipated was another boring iteration of known facts about a brilliant author. You've surprised me! It's actually worth watching.
Love it. Always loved Poe. Hello from Ireland.
His paternal grandfather immigrated to America from county Cavan, Ireland
@@girinka10Interesting. Didn't know that. Maybe why I relate to his mental state. Lol.
Edgar Allan poe have inspired many after his dead and still do, even in the gameworld. Thanks for a insightful program.
Ty
I enjoyed watching this…was afflicted with maybe one ad
Excellent doc!
Like most writers, Edgar Allan Poe projects himself in his works.
Age of his wife , 13., was a shock.
This was very cool!
brilliant
great readings of Edgars work
and tha actor playing Poe is amazing
Thank you!
If you can watch this, the commercials every six minutes makes it painful. Almost giving up watching this.
Yes, agreed but I won’t begrudge PBS the income. They make great programs and get very little funding,
Pay for TH-cam premium then. I do. No ads
Nope, just scroll to almost the end, 10-5 mins let play for 5-10 seconds, watch ‘1’ ad, than scroll to start, And, 💥 BAM = no more ads entire video, any channel🎉 good vibes and good luck to all❤
@@jakobquick6875 that hardly ever works
Ad Blocker.
Oh hey...PBS America but it's not available if you're watching it from America? I signed up with a VPN just to tell you how much that SUCKS.
DO BETTER.😡
Poe wrote puffs, no doubt about it. See what he wrote about Thomas Holly Cihvers for one, but he did flatter others--particularly the women writers that he knew.
1 minute in and had to stop, he didnt marry his childhood sweetheart at all, he married his 13yr old cousin .. get it right or just dont bother 👎👎👎👎👎👎
He also got engaged to his childhood sweetheart after Virginia's death.
