This 2009 thriller stars Josh Lucas as Terry Bernard, a single father raising a daughter with a rare degenerative disease. With health issues of his own, Terry undergoes heart transplant surgery and almost immediately begins having memory flashes of the murdered donor’s final moments. Phillip Martin of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette says, “…a modern updating of Poe’s canonical short story, Tell Tale is an ingenious step up from the usual genre suspects…Possibly Josh Lucas’s best performance to date.” Rehoboth Beach Public Library.
