Adrian Smith, then current Dean of the Society of American Magicians. At the time, Harold as he was known to his friends, had the largest magic library in the world. Often Harold was a dinner guest at our house and as usual after our meal “the boys” would discuss magic and collecting. Harold’s plan for his books and ephemera was to donate it all to his alma mater, Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. As we all know that’s what happened to his collection. Ed on the other hand disagreed with Harold’s plan and said that when the time came for him to dissolve his library he wanted everything to be sold; so that other collectors could enjoy what he had amassed.

    The Bullet Catch: Murder by Misadventure Grades 5–9 This spellbinding novel chronicles the coming of age of a resourceful young man who must refashion his destiny amid murder and misadventure in the golden age of magic. When the orphanage he called home burns to the ground, fourteen-year- old Leo and his three friends turn to larceny to survive. Leo proves to be a most gifted pickpocket, but when he is cruelly betrayed by his gang, he abandons the life of crime to become the apprentice of a has-been magician named Barzini, who is staging a comeback using the bullet catch trick made famous by his archenemy. Barzini wants more than to just outshine his old rival; he is out for revenge. As Leo struggles to escape his dangerous past, he must confront the possibility that his new mentor may be even more dangerous.

    2 Magic in the Moonlight

    Episode 2 - Magic in the Moonlight (2014) MUSIC - You Do Something To Me by Leo Reisman And His Orchestra Introduction MAGIC IN THE MOONLIGHT is the 44th film written and directed by Woody Allen, first released in 2014. It’s the 1920s and magician Stanley Crawford is asked by an old friend to help with a task. A rich family in the south of France is being swindled by a young clairvoyant. Stanley goes to investigate, but not everything is as it seems. Beautifully shot in the south of France, MAGIC IN THE MOONLIGHT is one of Allen’s light comedies with a deep heart. It’s an easy watch with all the lovely costumes and gorgeous back drop and charismatic movie stars. But there’s also a deeply philosophical point at the heart of it. And - I love this film. Welcome to the Woody Allen Pages podcast, from me, the creator of the Woody Allen Pages website. This week, episode two, we look at 2014’s MAGIC IN THE MOONLIGHT. We’ll look at how this film came to be. What I loved and what I didn’t love. And then some fun trivia about the film. Of course, spoilers are everywhere. Conception and story Allen’s career is really on a roll in the early 2010s. He had some of his best reviewed and financially successful films in a decade or two with 2011’s MIDNIGHT IN PARIS and 2013’s BLUE JASMINE. It coincided with a decade- long period of Allen making films mainly in Europe, leaving his bubble of New York, and breathing new life into his work.
