The Raven (1935 / 1963 / 2012), Contrast Review
Edgar Allan Poe's 1845 poem The Raven has generated multiple screen adaptations across nearly a century of cinema. The three versions covered here represe.
Director: Roger Corman
Roger Corman directed and produced hundreds of films on almost no money and gave first jobs to Coppola, Scorsese, Bogdanovich, Demme, Cameron, Ron Howard and Jack Nicholson, which makes him the most consequential training ground in American film. His Poe cycle with Vincent Price is the best of his own directing.
