One of the local picks for
Student Films Across America.
Directed by Christopher
Jarvis. An adaptation of Edgar
Allen Poe�??s 1841 satire,
which Poe subtitled �??A Moral
Tale.�?� Toby Dammit is a
young man of dubious morals.
When he was a child, his
left-handed mother beat him
from left to right, and Poe
says that if a proper
right-handed beating dispels
malice from a child, then it
stands to reason that a
left-handed beating knocks
wickedness in. Toby enjoys
drinking, smoking, telling
lies in confessions to the
priest, and gambling. Since he
owns nothing of value, his
favorite wager is, �??I�??ll
bet the devil my head.�?� His
best friend, the narrator,
implores him to stop using
this expression before it gets
him into real trouble.
