The Illusionist

Film Description

In 1900 Vienna, Eisenheim the Illusionist is mystifying audiences with a remarkable magic act that is seemingly too good to believe. Chief Inspector Uhl becomes obsessed with Eisenheim and is desperate to find out the secrets behind Eisenheim's tricks. In addition, Eisenheim is quickly growing close to his childhood love. As Eisenheim's act becomes even more amazing - including apparently raising the spirits of the dead - he enrages the crown prince even further, leading to deception and murder. Edward Norton, who studied magic in preparing for the role, is terrific as the enigmatic showman hiding a dark side. The film's compelling score was composed by Philip Glass.
