The Illusionist - 2010 - 7/10
AKA - L’illusionniste

Animated film based on Jacques Tati’s script.
The passing of stage performers in the late 50’s, yielding to the younger generation.
Sweet comedy, but sad. Haunting piano score.
Scant dialogue.

Aside: English music halls faded out in the 60’s. Vaudeville, in the States, much earlier, with the Talkies.
You can still catch a remnant of Music Hall at The Players’ Theatre, however, in London.

I try to attend every time I visit London, though I must confess the passing of Dominic Le Foe altered the experience.
