The Pale Blue Eye Trailer- Recap
The Netflix overview for The Pale Blue Eye writes- West Point 1830. A world-weary detective is hired to discretely investigate the gruesome murder of a cadet. Stymied by the cadet’s code of silence, he enlists one of their own to help unravel the case- a young man the world would come to know as Edgar Allan Poe.
The Pale Blue Eye trailer dates back to the 1830’s grey winter morning in the West Point Academy. A young cadet is brutally killed, and his heart is skill-fully carved from his chest. Fearing the worst, the military camp leader forwards the case to a former police officer Augustus Landor to find the culprit.
While the video plays out, it explains what kind of perplexing investigator Augustus Landor, Christian Bale, is. With an observant expression, he calls for an honest confession from the suspects. After emphasizing cade’s fearful silence, he enlists Edgar Allan Poe, one of the famous poets of his time to help him in the case. And it’s actor Harry Melling who plays Edgar Allan Poe in The Pale Blue Eye.
Continuing the investigation, Augustus Landor reveals his secret to Edgar Allan Poe, indicating that the suspect will soon unmask himself. In a scenario, while Landor walks to the West Point Academy, he murmurs – What type of fella could do this?
The tragedy becomes savagery when another cadet goes missing. To get at the roots of the case, Augustus asks Edgan- Poe; I need you to infiltrate the cadets. Where are the facts? Where the simple facts. The truth. He adds further in their conversation.
The ending scene of The Pale Blue Eye trailer takes Augustus to a dark room while his voice narrates We are closer. It’s just a matter of time. This line of Landor sets the tone for something worse to happen ahead.
The young cadet’ cold murder case reels too many dark twists, occult powers, bloodshed, and immortality associated with the West Point Academy. So, what do you think? With not even a single lead to follow, will Augustus Landor be able to find the culprit, or will he give up the case?
