Entertainment - delightful cast, very intriguing ideas and thought provoking.

Rating: 10/10 (6 September 2006)

SURPRISED - we had an afternoon with no plans, had read that a special showing was to be held for this movie. WE LOVED IT - everyone sitting around us had the same comments. Dark, sinister, romantic, sensual and captivating - would recommend to adult viewers - do not take your younger grandchildren. We had to keep reminding ourselves of the title of the movie - it helps to keep focused on the story. Screenwriters attempt to lure you away to other ideas. It reminded us somewhat of the stories surrounding another great illusionist in a more recent time - would this all have been really possible? Intriguing concepts and ideas are introduced to the viewer. Why was this picture delayed in being presented to the public? Noticed copyright was 2005.
Overall, extremely entertaining, well worth the cost, real escapism and thought provoking movie. The cast was excellent and believable.
