Edge of the Kingdom

Posted on 16:26 by clark

Last night I watched Michael Powell’s 
1937 movie, THE EDGE OF THE WORLD 
a beautiful, thoughtful wonder.
Director Powell was suggested to me 
by my friend Neal Huff who plays 
Jed the seaplane pilot in Wes Anderson’s 
latest film MOONRISE KINGDOM. 

Michael Powell appears in 
THE EDGE OF THE WORLD, 
piloting the sailboat to the island  
I can see how Jed 
is the perfect tribute to Powell, 
(not only sharing the mustache) 
but also carrying people to 
this magical setting. I’ll be 
watching more of Powell’s films 
and will soon report.
