These early De Palma comedies are such a delightfully chaotic mix of tones. This veers between Disney movie about a tap dancing magician, and weird perverse thing with Katharine Ross as "Terrific Looking Girl". Orson Welles has a great time in his few scenes. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Um not sure what De Palma was thinking with this? It doesn’t have that flair that are usually in his films and is really quite boring in terms of its story and I never really cared about anything that was happening. Probably his worst that I’ve seen so far.

I imagine Katharine Ross led at least a few young men to magic lessons.
