Houdini Picture Corporation
Directed by Harry Houdini
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Kino)
Houdini is a government man rooting out a gang of international counterfeiters. The trail leads him to London and Paris, where there is some interesting location shooting. A girl is involved, although she claims to have been framed by the criminals. Houdini may or may not be romantically interested in her, it's hard to tell from his stoic acting abilities. This is mostly all talk with only one or two minor action scenes, the best with Houdini strapped to one of those giant rotating paddle wheels on a waterfall which collapses, but his escape looked more like a camera trick.
