This episode we cover our oldest movie which is also the shortest! That's right, we are talking about The Vanishing Lady (1896) directed by Georges Méilès. The movie is a magician and assistant preforming a magic trick so who would be the perfect guest? How about an actual magician who is hailed by the Society of American Magicians as “one of the most creative acts in the world of magic today,” In fact, he is only the eighth magician in the history of magic to be awarded the International Brotherhood of Magicians Gold Medal. That is right, we have magician Arthur Trace! Who is the perfect guest to talk about this movie and share the ins and outs of life as a magician. So grab a deck of cards, guess which cup is hiding a ball, and listen!
