MNW89 - TONY CURTIS

Tony Curtis is our guest on this episode of the Magic Newswire "Spirit of Magic" podcast. Tony studied with George L Boston before starring in the 1953 film Houdini. Tony's enthusiasm for magic continued far beyond his role in the film. He was a frequent participant at the AMA's annual award banquets. In fact, he presented Cardini with the Masters Fellowship, the Academy of Magical Arts highest honor. In spite of the fact that the film portrayed a highly fictionalized account of Houdini's career, many still consider it to be one of the best "Houdini Films" yet to be made
