I've noticed some people trying to make Fortunado out to be the bad guy… when in reality, all we know he did was insult Montresor. Can you think of ANY insult that justifies burying someone alive? Think about poor Fortunado, taking days to waste away in the dark, all for an insult. No matter how you read it, Montresor the bad guy here.
@sirlacas "The thousand injuries of Fortunato I had borne as best I could; but when he ventured upon insult, I vowed revenge." Montressor was offended by Fortunato's very existence("You are rich, respected, admired, beloved; you are happy, as once I was.") and then got insulted by the man, possibly in public (implicitly the greatest injury so far), then decides the right course of action is to torture and kill him without getting caught. It's told from the POV of the bad guy, decades later.
i love the end where you get to see fortunados skeleton and if you didnt notice already i realized this story is kind of ironic his name is fortunado=fortunate and what happened isnt very fortunate
I love this video so much! My teacher showed it to our class one day and just...wow. Can someone tell me where I can find the pictures to this? I really want the one in the end where it shows Fortunatos' skeleton. But I've searched everywhere (bing, google, swag bucks...) and still nothing. So if you know, PLEASE let me know. Thanks! Great Video!!!!
Oh. I hate Montresor in opinion. Like at him. His was insulted as in a joke by Fortunato just because he said these word that doesn't mean he really whatever Fortunato said. Either way, Montresor don't have to take it so serious. And look at what he has done to Fortunato he murdered him because of a joke. Montresor is a pussy. Every time I heard this story I just want to shoot that asshole. Any ways thanks for the uploaded
Well in the old days saying things that insulted a person's honor or their family's honor was SERIOUS business.Duels had to be fought to right the wrongs but sometimes the wrong person died.That was society's mentality from the 1800's Remember Hamilton- Burr Duel? The Old West GunFights? Hadfields vs McCoys?Monstesor wanted Fortunato dead but not risk getting killed/hurt/defeated or caught or have someone of Fortunado's family kill him in his honor after Fortunado started it in the 1st place.
How many people think this story can be taken to the big screan? think about montresor can be christopher walken or another good bad actor lol jhonny depp?
I don't think Fortunado ever rested in peace.His life was cut so short.He had his whole life ahead of him.He never will see his children grow up.His wife really missed him.That family was never the same.His cruel death will never be avenged nor will the person that walled him up alive will ever be brought to justice.None of his friends and his loved ones ever knew what happened to him.They will go to their graves never knowing what happened to Fortuando
Everybody knows that.The way Poe tells his story is like you watching a good movie.You can't help but get drawn into it.Walling people up alive in the old days is not far from the truth& uncommon as you think.The penality for a priest or nun breaking their vows is walling up alive,children were buried alive to provide a protective spirit over graveyards.People pretending to offer up a room to someone they hated locking up their enemies in a room in a castle and sealing them in forever.
@mr10tomidnight , Fortunado was a cruel man, who hurt, and offened many people, the person who walled him up was avenging a persons life who fortunado took just out of jealous rage. He deserved what he got. And yes, this is a true story.
@zwskate4u12 of course Edgar made this for enteratinment purposes, but stuff like this happened. He wrote this to personify he experiences when he was in the millitary. So yeah stuff like this happened, but this story in paticuallar was not true
@mr10tomidnight Fortunado's death was avenged. Several years later feeling some guilt, Montresor paid a visit to Fortunado. Suddenly water from the river above broke through the bricks and began to fill the catacomb. Reaching the steps was his only chance for escape! With the water up to his chest he was only a few feet from safety when his leg became caught! He couldn't free himself. Now completely submerged he looked and saw the remains of Fortunado gripping his leg and dragging him down!
@TickleTron2000 I read this in a Creepy magazine back in '64 or '65. In fact it's the one on this video! They also did an alternative ending to the Tell-Tale Heart.
