BrennaBlogt There's such a thing as books for the younger generation :3 (like meeeee, and yes, I have an Edgar Allan Poe book filled with all of his work)
I really liked this, it was very well shot too. We watched this in class and I enjoyed it but for some reason everyone else thought that the fact that he was Jewish was SO funny. Eh, either way great job.
She would have to convert to be Jewish. they get so angry when others dont agree with them or want them to believe like them them but they have to marry a jew and if it's a non jew they force them to become a jew or no marriage their family will lose their minds its absolutely prohibited
I am pretty emotional with this film, this is my favorite poem since Junior high school, idk why. Maybe even though the ending is too sad, the love is a super genuine #SanaAllEdgar
Of all of the Renditions here of this poem... Short films, recitations... Enactments very good. This is the only one that seemed truly real. it was scary suspenseful and unmeasurably sad. Thank you.
Can someone please explain to me WHY in the hell those 35 people dislike this art? Srsly. Edgar Allan Poe's creation has so many feels and this clip too.
Okay, I almost NEVER cry, and this made me tear up. It was SO GOOD!! I love the transitions. My favorite part is after he finds that her body isn't in the stone casket, he thought she was gone forever, and then he looks up, and everything begins to brighten as he runs towards her. AHHHH it was so good I can't even begin to put it into words. Thank you for making this! :)
this actually made me cry, this was so well done, thank you. this is my absolute favorite poem by my favorite poet and im actually planning an Annabel Lee makeup tutorial for youtube very very soon.
I showed my ESL students this film and they said, " It's touching", " This reminds me of Harry Potter" ( weird comment), " This film touches your emotions." As an educator, I appreciate how you've made this piece accessible for English learners- and everyone! Bravo!
Of all of the Renditions cheer of this poem... Short films, recitations... Enactments very good. This is the only one that seemed truly real it was scary suspenseful and unmeasurably sad. Thank you.
I am a fan of Poe and film. So I found this and was compelled to watch. I made a film based off the Raven that won awards. Glad for the reply. You did a great job.
Very much enjoyed your interpretation of this wonderful poem. I thought I knew where you were going at the end, but was pleasantly surprised to where you actually went. Thank you again.
I see a lot of people commenting about the angels, and how they don't look like angels. I believe this is because the narrator seems to directly blame the angels for killing Annabel Lee. So of course the narrator wouldn't see them as beautiful, light creatures of God.
Brilliant, amazing, graceful, BRILLIANT. Ioved that story poem with the video it was just a real piece of work it struck my heart for their love. I with that I loved someone that much but I don't have a girlfriend yet. I did have a girlfriend but what kept her going was my loving hear growing inside her. I would die to the end for her my girlfriend or my ex I would still love her even if I die.
Touched my heart for sure I recently posted a comment about this. I always cry no matter it be the beginning or the end I always will cry at some point in this video.
I think the DP did a fantastic job. I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it either. What did it matter that the man was a Jew and a Confederate soldier? The camera panned right in on his CS belt buckle within the first 90 seconds, and later we see a photo on the bedside table of a man with a Confederate battle flag draped across his lap. The director really seemed to want to make that point and I can't figure out why. Those questions plagued me throughout the entire film, so much so that it detracted from the love story of two people who couldn't be kept apart, even in death. Also, I think it would have been better if it had been shot in black and white, or sepia. However,not to be too critical, it was well done, the music was perfect, the actors looked great and the poem is one of my favorites of all time.
+Todd Lowe Thanks for your input! You're one of the few people to have noticed such details. I wanted to ground the story in something more than just "sometime, somewhere in the 1800s" and I picked Jewish Confederates. It also fit the themes of the film even if it's not in the original poem. As for the sepia, it would have felt gimmicky to me. Maybe if I do another antebellum film, I'll go more monochromatic! :)

Remember the Angels in some Bible story were guarding all the roads out of a certain city against a certain person leaving? Angry they were as they gripped their swords. Angry, fierce, ugly. As anyone who interferes with your life would appear .
They think it a reference to yellow fever and the kingdom Charleston South Carolina Poe attended a military academy there when he was young and there a legend he fell in love with a plantation owners daughter and the family sent here away from Charleston to try and break them up because Poe was a working class norther and she was a member incredibly wealthy family who owned hundreds of aces of cotton land and was expected to marry such she caught yellow fever and died as result of her being sent away poe stared drinking and gambling during his time there so that possible Poe bumping into a her at a book store in poetry section or doing interdicted by another member of the academy who was a wealthy plantation owners son being escorted home father allowing it believing it to be simple puppy till it spiraled to something serious

Lowkey the first time I heard the poem it made me sad, but when I saw this it made me cry, poetry really is such a beautiful way of expressing oneself
Thanks!
This is my most favorite poem Annabelle Lee by Edgar Allan Poe!! I Love it❤
Mine too!
"are you tearing up?"
YES I AM
I really liked this, it was very well shot too. We watched this in class and I enjoyed it but for some reason everyone else thought that the fact that he was Jewish was SO funny. Eh, either way great job.
How could you tell he was circumcised?
@@darknessanddistance4469 He had one em jew hats

What a beautiful ending !

My English Language Arts teacher thought this movie was bad yet the storyline was good. This movie almost made me cry. And I never cry.
I've watched this one every Halloween month since it first came out, still one of my favs of the Poe short films. So well done.
this video made so many people tear up that they liked it and turned their phone upside down to like it once more!
Those guys with the black cape or what-so-ever , they don't look like angels , they look more like the God of Death.
Seraphims are angels ...the poem does say "seraphim" ...but whatever
@@FairwayJack don't forget that devil is an fallen angel !!! an angel that feel envy is a demon
Demons are angels
I had to write an essay on this poem and analyse it and this was so helpful! It helped me understand it more too!

I had to too
Steph's life... I want your analysis.can you send me that.Im studing english litreture.Your analysis of this song very important for me..

Have watched this many times. Beautiful, simple beautiful.

That because the actor is a Jew ... Same on them!!!
Loved the Kaddish, the Jewish prayer for the deceased, at the end! Beautiful touch😍
I was wondering what it was...thanks for the info

Great! I've heard other teachers like to use it, too. Glad it's helpful!

Thanks! I know an English teacher who shows the film every year in her American Lit class. Glad it helps!
I love this poem since childhood days

This is beautiful. :) Wonderful interpretation of "Annabel Lee", great job!
Thank you! We had a great time making it.
Beautiful. Very beautiful.
I'm making my own version of Annabel Lee as an Illustrated book... I think this poem inspires the heart.
Beautifully shot, wonderfully acted, masterfully directed.
I enjoyed this unique take on Poe's famous poem, great work!
It is such because of the amazing editing and color grading, ahem.
this is beautiful
I always show this at Halloween in my 8th grade English class.
Very much enjoyed your interpretation of this wonderful poem. I thought I knew where you were going at the end, but was pleasantly surprised to where you actually went. Thank you again.
This is my favorite poem ever since I discovered it. I thought your film was beautifully done.
Thank you! Please share it with other Poe fans you know! :)

Beautiful
Brilliant, amazing, graceful, BRILLIANT. Ioved that story poem with the video it was just a real piece of work it struck my heart for their love. I with that I loved someone that much but I don't have a girlfriend yet. I did have a girlfriend but what kept her going was my loving hear growing inside her. I would die to the end for her my girlfriend or my ex I would still love her even if I die.
This interpretation depresses me deeply as it should because it's after all Poe's. Great work. 2 thumbs up.
Touched my heart for sure I recently posted a comment about this. I always cry no matter it be the beginning or the end I always will cry at some point in this video.
What a beautiful short film 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Just wonderful and to me so very personal
Amazingly done!! Everything is spot on! Love the sound track too
This was just amazing! Love it.
I did this for my High School Marching Band Show this past year.
The central character looks amazingly like a talented actor from decades ago called Tim McIntyre. Well done for a great interpretation.
My favorite
Beautiful.
I love this shot film I recommend it very much
Omg! Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
This is by far the best video I saw about Annabelle Lee. Great job with it. Do "cast of amontillado". If you have time.
¡Excelente, gracias!
Beautiful
My Annabel Lee
...and they still LOVE happily ever after.
It's not a tragic love story after all.
Happy birthday, Mr. Poe.
207 years: 19 january 1809-19 january 2016

And its hero the Conqueror Worm"
