The Illusionist - Edward Norton doing his thang

Heard of this one? It was the indie version of Chris Nolan's The Prestige. But it's a pleasure to watch on the small screen, where Ed Norton's performance carries more weight than it deserves to, Jessica Biel is as appealing as ever (even if she does have a piggy face) and Paul Giamatti turns in another great supporting actor performance (playing a character I find too ridiculous to be true, though). In general this is a kind of a goofy movie. It's got a lot of holes. But generally a pleasingly quirky production and a nice way to spend a couple hrs on a lazy weekend.
