See this entertaining biopic of Harry Houdini, starring Tony Curtis as the great illusionist and Janet Leigh as his wife, Bess. While this film strays from historical fact, this fantastical rendering of the magician's life bolsters the legend behind Houdini's daring escapes. Directed by George Marshall. (1953, 106 min. No MPAA rating. Screened from DVD.)
