Producer George Pal's 1953 Houdini is organized along the lines of a musical biography, except that songs and music are replaced with Harry's miraculous escapes. His insatiable curiosity about life's mysteries and man's physical limits would later develop into an obsession with spirituality. The entertainer and escape artist (1868-1926) transcended his craft to become a genuine superstar of the early 20th century. Harry Houdini has always been a favorite subject, for both fictional films and documentaries. Written by Philip Yordan from a book by Harold Kellock
Starring Tony Curtis, Janet Leigh, Torin Thatcher, Angela Clarke, Ian Wolfe, Sig Ruman, Michael Pate, Connie Gilchrist, Douglas Spencer
