Film

The Baltimore Museum of Art ends the year with the exhibit Edgar Allan Poe: A Baltimore Icon, a collection of works inspired by the haunting author. And for the next two Fridays, BMA will show a series of professional and amateur films inspired by Poe. All of the films are a part of the 48 Hour Film Project, where teams of four write, shoot, edit, and score a short film in no more than 48 hours (former City Paper production staffer/contributor Jim Lucio took part; film still above). Three of the films capture some of Poe's favored themes: "Love and Loss," "Fear and Terror," and "Madness and Obsession;" another four films are adaptations of his stories: "Ms. Found a Bottle," "The Purloined Letter," "The Murders in Rue Morgue," and "The Tell-Tale Heart."
