Holy shit. This is possibly the most amazing clip of a head on a platter. I have ever scene. The fact that it is a very pretty young woman makes it all worthwhile. I like that she goes from being asleep to awake is great. Also the fact that she is French is hilariously ironic, perhaps she had a run in with the guillotine? I also like that you get to see her body. My only question is, where is that guy taking her and what kind of act could she be apart of? Still a very awesome clip.
Thanks for the comment, strangway. Unfortunately, your question is not answered by the film. We never see the actress or the illusion again. I guess we're left to assume that she's simply part of the stage act. But it is one of the best illusions using mirrors I've come across - although the viewing angles for such an illusion are extremely restricted. Glad you liked the clip!
You should check out the video for "Hocus Science Focus" It is a scientific breakdown of illusions between a scientist and a magician. One of the illusions is "Head on a Platter" with the super-cute scientist lady's head resting on a mirrored box.
that sea lion is crazy!
