I went out with a friend last night and after dinner we swung but Hollywood Video and picked up The Illusionist - a film I hadn't seen advertised anywhere in the past year. It stars Edward Norton, Paul Giamatti and Jessica Biel and it is excellent.

Edward Norton is one of my absolute favorite actors (along with Colin Firth and Rupert Graves) and I would see something with him in it even if it happened to star one of the actors whose movies I refuse to see.

If you're looking for an entertaining film, The Illusionist is definitely worth your time. I won't ruin the story line by telling you about it further except to say the film really does keep you on your toes all the way through! And the music was done by Phillip Glass, which is pretty cool too! Sadly, it appears to have been nominated only for Cinematography for an Oscar - which is too bad, because Edward Norton gave a great performance!
