This looks interesting, Beth! I have not heard of anything on this, but I am in Europe most of the time. Anyone else have information? I would love to know more.

Wonder is very necessary in life. When we're little kids, we're filled with wonder for the world - it's fascinating and miraculous. A lot of people lose that. They become cynical and jaded, especially in modern day society. Magic renews that wonder.

Hey Autumn,
I'll ask over at the Diva site and see what Luna knows about this. Smile

Ok this is the info Luna gave on it.
"this is a documentary that I have been involved with from the ground floor. It tells the story of the Women behind the Magician's. Very Cool. They are taking it to Sundance Film Festival and then they will sell it to a network like HBO and eventually it will come out on DVD."


Sounds awesome to me. Can't wait to see it.
Peace Beth

I was wondering if there was ever such a project taken on before. If not this is long overdue.

I just hope they don't expose magic...after all the women of magic not only know the secrets...but, "bend over backwards" to make the act sucessful Smile

Cool.
For as long as space exists,
And living beings remain in cyclic existence,
For that long, may I too remain,
to dispel the sufferings of the world.

Has anyone heard anything about this movie? I would think a year would be plenty of time to get this released?

This looks fascinating. Judging from the way the trailer's cut, it likely has some mainstream appeal. I can not wait to see it.
Ok, I'll meet you at the place near the thing where we went that time.

I wish I could attend the premiere as I feel like I've been waiting forever for this, but alas I won't be making it back stateside 2 months in a row. Too bad they won't be screening this at the IBM/SAM convention...that would have been a great idea...

I just hope this film does not strongly reaffirm in the lay persons mind the concept of a women's key and only place in magic is as an assistant to male magicians.
