Lavish (if not always accurate) account of the legendary magician/escape artist/spiritualist stars Tony Curtis as Harry Houdini and Janet Leigh as his wife (the couple's first film together). Many of Houdini's greatest stunts-including his famous escape from a locked trunk submerged in an icy river-are thrillingly re-created in this biodrama from producer George Pal. Torin Thatcher, Angela Clarke co-star; look quickly for an uncredited Tor Johnson. 107 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; Subtitles: English (SDH).
