Richard Turner and Luke Korem at New York Comic Con 2017 - a preview of coming attractions


On Thursday I went to New York Comic Con to see Richard Turner and Luke Korem talk about their film DEALT about Mr Turner.  Turner is a blind magician who does all sorts of amazing things with cards and Mr Korem has done a documentary about him.

I arrived late because of the crowds and arrived at the panel just in time to see one last card trick. I was blown away.

A short time later I went over to the IFC Films table and spoke, briefly with both Mr Turner and Mr Korem and had a grand old time. I only spoke with them for about five minutes bt it was clear that I had to do an interview with them, so after getting a signed poster I headed off  making notes to be sure to arrange an interview. Five minutes with the master and I was stammering like a kid so I can't wait to do a sit down.

Ladies and gentlemen you need to see DEALT when it opens and hits VOD on October 20th.  Based on what I've seen of Richard Turner in action it's a must see. Must see was also what Ariela told me Thursday night after she saw the film (her review is coming) and a special performance by Mr Turner for writers. She was simply blown away.

Lots of coverage of the film is coming so keep reading.
