Overview
In 1921 New York. an immigrant woman is tricked into a life of burlesque and vaudeville until a dazzling magician tries to save her and reunite her with her sister who is being held in the confines of Ellis Island.
This is a classic example of the parts being greater than the whole. There were some really great performances in this film and yet the film left me wanting.
