Aroview: A classy compendium of three Edgar Allan Poe stories directed by Europe's finest.

Metzengerstein (Dir. Roger Vadim) - Jane and Peter Fonda star as lovers, whose passion persists beyond death in the form of an eerie black stallion.

William Wilson (Dir. Louis Malle) - Poe's famous doppelganger tale is handled with wit by dir. Malle, with Alain Delon solid in the twin lead roles.

Toby Dammit (Dir. Federico Fellini) - Possibly the most successful of the three has Terence Stamp playing a deranged actor in a Fellini-esque Roman cityscape.
