Review of The Illusionist (2009) by Sheila C — 23 Sep 2011
The story as a whole is a little vapid (which critics of this film point to as a fatal flaw when compared to Tati's original screenplay), but The Illusionist features one of the most moving, heartfelt and poignant ending scenes I've seen in a while -- especially considering the story behind the screenplay.
Anyone interested in the great, yet troubled career of Jacques Tati should see this immediately.
