User Reviews

Very interesting look at magic & magicians

Being a fan of magic/magicians since childhood this series was loads of fun.

I recently discovered this on DVD from an online rental.

The episodes (some are 23 min and others 45 min) on the DVD are:

The Father of Modern Magic. Houdini. The Herrmanns. The Greats of Modern Magic. Weird Magic. Death by Magic

If you're interested in magic this is a must.

TONS of magicians are covered and interviews.

Even if you already know everything that's discussed, watching these magicians at work is jaw-dropping.
