Apparently they're going to make an action movie based on Houdini's life in the next few years. I have NO idea who's going to play Houdini. (**Please don't let them pick a sucky actor**)

IMO I'd rather have Hollywood make a quality feature-length biopic, like they have done for Chaplin, Jolson, and copious other 20th century public figures. I'm worried that an action film is just going to race through Houdini's life at full throttle and not be a very good quality movie. Could be fun, though.

I can't believe there are some who STILL believe Houdini had superpowers! That wildly innacurate 1953 movie had something to do with the proliferation of this belief, I'm sure, plus the fact that people can't explain what he did (b/c they aren't magicians/escape artists) so they jump to "convincing" conclusions.

Houdini trained hard to make his body strong and contortable so he could do straitjacket, milk can escapes, etc. He didn't NEED superpowers to do what he did!

Actually, at least one big budget movie about Houdini was made. It starred Tony Curtis. It was a good movie but it was very inaccurarate in it's facts.

Thanks, I'll have a look for it. I've seen a couple of movies that have tried to depict Houdini's life and times, and they were both terribly inaccurate, so, what not watch another one? We need a Harry Houdini movie for our time; it's long overdue, I think. Thanks again.
