  • A script for THE ILLUSIONIST was originally written by French comedy genius and cinema legend Jacques Tati as a love letter from a father to his daughter, but never produced. Sylvain Chomet, the Oscar-nominated and critically acclaimed creator of The Triplets of Belleville, adapted the script and brought it to life in his distinctive hand-drawn animated style.
    The Illusionist is one of a dying breed of stage entertainers. With emerging rock stars stealing his thunder in the late 1950s, he is forced to accept increasingly obscure assignments in fringe theatres, at garden parties and in bars and cafés. Then, while performing in a village pub off the west coast of Scotland, he encounters Alice, an innocent young girl, who will change his life forever.
    Watching his performance for the excited villagers who are celebrating the arrival of electricity on their remote island, Alice is awestruck by his show and believes his tricks are real magic. Though they don‟t speak the same language, the two lonely strangers quickly bond through small kindnesses. Fascinated by The Illusionist, Alice stows away on his departing ship and follows him to Edinburgh. There, they quickly fall into a father -- daughter relationship, with Alice keeping their home at a boarding house for vaudevillians, while he goes to work in a small local theatre.
    3
    Enchanted by her enthusiasm for his act, The Illusionist rewards Alice with increasingly lavish gifts he has 'conjured' into existence. Desperate not to disappoint her, he cannot bring himself to reveal that magic does not exist and that he‟s driving himself to ruin working all night jobs to buy her gifts.
    As The Illusionist grows older, Alice grows up. She falls in love with a young man and is no longer so enchanted by The Illusionist‟s conjuring. She moves on with her life, and The Illusionist no longer has to pretend. Untangled from his own web of deceit, he resumes his life as a much wiser man.

    The only thing I did not like about this movie is how misleading the trailer was. The trailer looks lighthearted and optimistic, while the movie is actually extremely melancholic and very deeply depressing.
    Yet exactly this capability to touch the deepest parts of the beholder's soul is what defines one masterpiece as such. And yes - this movie is a masterpiece.

    This is an extraordinary movie. I watched it to the end on Sunday. So few words and such a poignant message alone its journey. The animation is beautiful and I am stunned that I never saw this movie before. I can only imagine the thousands and even millions of hours it took to bring it to this high level. If magicians did not exist we would never have this movie, so glad they do!

    Tonight I watched this movie for the third time and still managed to notice new things I'd never noticed before. I really adore this movie - every frame is so beautiful, many themes and character lines being followed throughout, little comedy here and there. It's one of my favourites. Chomet did a great job with this one!

    For some reason at 3am I was thinking about animated films and I remembered this one but forgot the name. I knew it was something short with “The” at the beginning and had to google top animated films. I came across The Triplets Of Belleville and for some reason I knew the animation of that film seemed familiar with this one. Luckily with the algorithm I watched the trailer for that film and lo and behold this one came up! Omg I haven’t watched this film in 14 years, I know I have it in dvd somewhere lost in my house but I need to watch this again…I just remember it being sad but at the same time it was something that I resonated with…I miss animated films like this one ❤

    This film was wonderful! Even though the characters barely talked, I LOVED watching them develop through their actions and not words. Almost nothing was said through the entire thing, and that's what made it so great! The first half of the film was traveling and it felt so VERY refreshing to see hand-drawn animation. I cried at the end, it was funny in the beginning but depressing towards the end. At first I didn't think I'd even like it, but I ended up enjoying the film immensely!

The animation was beautiful & the story very moving & at times very funny, plus being Scottish it was nice to see the film almost entirely set in Edinburgh. It reminded me a lot of Charlie Chaplins movies.
