An Honest Liar: The Amazing Randi Story

NOW ON KICKSTARTER UNTIL FEB 15! http://kck.st/W3RVWs
PLEASE help us make this film, and spread word far and wide!

An Honest Liar is a feature length documentary that will reveal the colorful life
and escapades of James Randi, explore the history and dangers of magical thinking and
deception, and go undercover with Randi as he plots his next major hoax. It will also
make the audience question their own eyes and wonder what is real and what is not.

With a biographical style similar to Bill Cunningham, New York and Being Elmo, but capped with a twist akin to Exit Through the Gift Shop, An Honest Liar will be an historical biography, a call for reason and education, and a magic act in itself. Like pulling a rabbit out of a hat, An Honest Liar will reveal one of American's hidden treasures and leave you wondering "how did they do that?"

Directed by Justin Weinstein and Tyler Measom

A vast majority of people in Taiwan are hopelessly in love with these deceits. We have companies like HTC, ASUS and Acer, but it doesn't change the fact that this type of culture is pulling the entire society backwards. I am wondering if any one can find a version with Chinese subs? I wish to spread his words.

[Justin Weinstein]

We'd love to post the trailer with Chinese subtitles - but we don't speak Chinese! Is there anyone out there that can create Chinese subs for us? Thanks!

I...I am speechless. I can't find words in the english language that can emphasize my happiness, my anxiousness, my undying love for what this man is doing. He is my new hero...and this is who i will strive to be like.

Justin - this is brilliant news. Having volunteered at the JREF in the early 00's I often wondered why a movie has not been made about this truly amazing man. Cant wait to see the movie.

[metalkoffe]

Peter Popoff is truly a sick individual

[Justin Weinstein]

If you mean what's my role on the film, I'm producer/director

[Typhoon792]
