+H It appears at 1:54 on the mantlepiece. It's a film about Poe and his struggle with his wife's illness. Poe is trying to sell his poem to publishers to make money to care for his wife, while the raven mocks his efforts.

Good question. I think people automatically assign a perceived more sohpisticated effect, when something as refined as poetry is spoken. A British accent is supposed to sound more educated and intellectual. A self-degrading tendancy on Americans by themselvea.
I love that poem.

Excellent.

The raven is in his head,just like the bengal tiger in the life of pii.
THAT IS POE PLAYING HIMSELF.
Never more.
It's nice, but why the British accent?
