West Point, 1830. In the early hours of a gray winter morning, a cadet is found dead. But after the body arrives at the morgue, the tragedy is made worse by savagery when it is discovered that the young man’s heart has been skillfully removed. Fearing irreparable damage to the fledgling military academy, its leaders turn to local detective Augustus Landor to solve the murder. Stymied by the cadets’ code of silence, Landor enlists the help of one of their own to help unravel the case, an eccentric cadet with a disdain for the rigors of the military and a penchant for poetry — a young man named Edgar Allan Poe.
Written and directed by Scott Cooper (Crazy Heart), the film’s cast includes Harry Melling (“Harry Potter” franchise) as Edgar Allan Poe, Gillian Anderson (The Crown), Lucy Boynton (Bohemian Rhapsody), Charlotte Gainsbourg (Melancholia), Toby Jones (The Hunger Games: Catching Fire), Harry Lawtey (Magpie Murders), Simon McBurney (Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation), Hadley Robinson (I’m Thinking of Ending Things), Timothy Spall (Mr. Turner), and Robert Duvall (The Godfather).
