I just saw this extremely short movie by pure chance, and I did not even know that it had been made.Its aesthetics are completely surrealist and the film is a strange combination of dancing, theatrics and a very modern approach to stage decor. It reminded me a little of Metropolis by Fritz Lang. I believe it is a jewel and viewers who enjoy art should definitely see it. I do not think that you have to consider this film in terms of the original story, because Poe's story just inspired this art piece. It should be seen as an avantgarde experiment. It is difficult to believe it was made in 1928! It would certainly be interesting to get to see other films by this director.
