There was a movie that I saw the previews to a few months ago. I was thinking that it was the "illusionist", but after seeing that movie, i dont believe that was it. This movie I'm looking for, I believe, was about two magians facing off, or competeing, and one of the magicians was actually doing real magic and not just tricks. Ring a bell to anyone? The previews for the illusionist on tv now, is not the same as the movie that I am trying to find. Unfortunately, I dont remember any of the actors that was in it. I hope someone can help me!! Thanks.

Try "The Prestige". It was also a period magic movie that came out around the same time.

I think I know what you're talking about, cause I saw the previews too! I honestly can't remember the name & I remember this cause my hubby wanted to see it too! The guy above me might be right, though.
