Review of The Pale Blue Eye (2022) by Michael O'sullivan for Washington Post — 03 Jan 2023
Where The Pale Blue Eye succeeds best is in the way it shows how Edgar — yet to become the writer of ghoulish, moody atmosphere and delicious morbidity we remember — got some of his enduring ideas about the coexistence of depravity and beauty.
The movie only stumbles when it succumbs, here and there, to the more trivial tropes and jump scares of the contemporary thriller.
