Houdini


Houdini is a 1953 biographical film about the life of the magician and escape artist Harry Houdini. It was made by Paramount Pictures, directed by George Marshall and starring Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh.

Do you believe in magic? Well it doesn't matter if you do or don't in this case. Yes this movie is all about Houdini, a magician but it isn't just about his magic it's about his family and his life.

The magic in the film is very interesting, the staging is great and the tricks are actually done by , Tony Curtis, the actor playing Houdini.

My favorite trick in the movie is the very first trick Houdini preforms for his future wife, Bess. I was advised not to try the trick at home by the teacher in charge of the class. Watch the movie and you will have the urge to go pull a rabbit out of a hat or some other cheesy magic act
