Tell-Tale heart scene


"You should have seen how wisely I proceeded -- with what caution -- with what foresight, with what dissimulation, I went to work!And every night about midnight I turned the latch of his door and opened it oh, so gently! And then, when I had made an opening sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern all closed, closed so that no light shone out, and then I thrust in my head. Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in! I moved it slowly, very, very slowly, so that I might not disturb the old man's sleep. It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed."

Tell-Tale Heart

The story that I will talk about is a story I didn’t like at all. I think it has a really weird plot and I would never watch it again. But if I had to choose from those three videos I would probably choose the first one because it has more details and it’s easy to understand it. The story is about a mad person who, after killing an old man for his white eye or as he said the "evil eye", hears an unbearable heartbeat and releases his overwhelming sense of guilt by shouting his confession to the police. Throughout the story the narrator insists that he is sane, yet at the same time, he is giving the impression of being insane.
